    If we get one of the washed up duds from Fox (Bucks, Horse or Simmo) i will spew.

    Head of footy maybe, but dont be fooled by their analysis on 360 or On the Couch being a resume for being a tactically astute AFL Coach

    I think we might need experienced senior replacement.

    With the state of our President/CEO & board to throw a untried coach could be disastrous !!!

    Pretty sure Longmire is still firmly entrenched at Sydney, doubt he moves to Melbourne to start from scratch.

    I’d like someone fresh, give every player a clean slate and get some energy back into the place.

    I’m looking at the assistants mentioned over Simmo, Horse, Buckley etc

    Enright has apparently been earmarked to succeed Ross Lyon. If we can pry him away St Kilda, I’d take him. I’d also replace Alan Richardson with James Hird (ducks for cover).

    I’d definitely interview Hinkley and Longmire. Wouldn’t even bother with Buckley

    We’ll want to chat to Danny Daly.

    No way I want Hird at our club. In any role, not even as a spectator.

    Either Bruce, Enright or Montgomery with Longmire running the Football department would be great.

    I have a feeling we already have someone on the hook, and think an announcement may be imminent if we sacked Goodwin now.

    Jose Mourinho? Probably he's the soccer version of SG 🤣

    Adelaide head of coaching this year who was a long time Brisbane assistant before that.

    He’d be a very Fagan style appointment

    Fooled by the analysis on 360???? They are hugely successful Premiership coaches, they are not getting picked up because of 360 🤦

    Longmire, Danny Daly and Enright are the ones to chase. Would love Longmire as I think he has a good mix of ruthlessness and team first mentality.

    No idea what he actually does these days, or if he has any coaching experience or interest, but this club needs a person like Luke Hodge who would not accept an of the cr@p we've been served up by the players over the last few years.

    I would be happy with this, he is Brisbane's Fagan successor in waiting

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
