Brett Ratten. Brett Ratten. Brett Ratten.

He has coached his own team.

He has worked under experienced coaches.

He is familiar with Melb ie. players, weaknesses and off field structure and would have a fair idea of changes he would like to make.

We would need to make an offer befor the season finishes.

If Pagan is no longer at the blues they will sign Ratten quick sticks.

If not Ratten then I would advocate taking a punt on Voss.

I will be disappointed if we get Mark Harvey I have heard that many in the business do not believe him capable of a senior role.

I have been a long time supporter of Buckley and feel kind of vindicated as both gerard healy and mike sheahan both nominated Buckley as the coach most promising.both of them are melbourne men and are as precise as anyone in analysis.I hope Gardner listens.

Eddei Jones ( well maybe not him)

Good grief he had enough troubles within his own code ;) !!!

Viney for me. I'd like to see a demon leader leading the demons.

But most importantly, I want to see a stable assistant coaching group with good talent and support, who the new coach can be comfortable delegating to.

It's a team thing, ya know.

:blink: Maybe we can introduce co-coaches or a coaching rotation every year :blink:

Very simple answer to this vexing question.

Michael Voss will be the next coach of the MFC.

He and Gardner will be a nice match and hit it off from the start. The board will respect his success and his hunger to prove that he can cut it at senior coaching level. Forget that drivel about spending time being an assistant and learning the ropes. Robert (dumbo) Shaw is a prime example of not the way to go.

Why wouldn't you want a champion player who once he crossed the line took no prisoners?

This is the attitude we need. Look forward, not back. Any talk of Lyon, Pagan and CC is retrograde thinking.

A rare moment, a new broom. Seize the time, take a chance.

Voss for mine and beggar the consequences.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
