    The club leaks seem to be drying up… all of the intel on this club-selection process now seems to be coming from the candidates and not the club + we’ve heard very little on player exit interviews (especially Clarry).

    My best guess is incoming CEO and president have had to step in. This is a good sign.

    Funny, I thought of this today when Tom Morris had the scoop on Charlie Curnow’s exit meeting, shortly after it had finished.

    I’m now firmly convinced that almost all leaks are manager based, who else would be leaking details of that meeting?

    Unless the club itself leaked, to shut down any thoughts for rivals.

    They should have never extended him before they saw the outcome of the year and are now stuck with his extension

    However, we might offer them a bail out

    Was reported earlier in the year that we made contact with him and he shut it down out of respect for Goody and then signed a new deal

    not making finals changes things for Dogs and Melbourne are very much watching the situation very closely and have made contact again

    Wasn't King calling for his head for most of the year?

    I really hope not Bevo, and both Kingy and Kornes are clowns, great at entertaining on their chat shows but that’s really all it is, entertainment.

    I’d love to know what Goody or someone at Melbourne did to Kornes, he seems to always have such a personal vendetta against the MFC.

    Imagine getting rid of Goody for wacky Bevo

    Absolutely not unless he brings Bont. Then I guess he can be midfield coach or something.

    We still have a List Manager.

    Watson was on radio yesterday and said the actual process hasn't really started so think we've just been getting candidates sorted so far. Interviews should start soon and you'd hope the details of which remain under wraps. We might hear about the list of candidates being narrowed down but I doubt (hope) not much else until we announce the coach.

    Well, Bevo would certainly be a 'different' voice.

    Obviously.

    Not asking for a trade and not being told you’re up for trade are two separate things.

    And to be fair being as he’s contracted, he too would have a fair amount of say in his fate

    I'd love to get Bevo to our club just to do Pressers. He is a bit of a loose unit and not the sort of person you'd want to be trapped in a broken down elevator with.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
