    If we hire Daly as the coach maybe the Ashcroft boys and Logan morris can come as a bonus

    Excellent. Now take note of who Graham Wright is lining up as coach in waiting at Carlton and nab one of them as the senior coach and away we go

    Bruce has been huge for Brisbane over the last couple of years.

    Melbourne connection aside, this would be a fantastic acquisition.

    I reckon he'd be a great addition, hope it comes to fruititon.

    Would Bruce want to be at a club with a Guerra ??

    excellent

    i was hoping he would be keen for a senior role but i suspect this gets him back to the city of melbourne before a coaching role becomes available end of 2026 (e.g. carlton, potentially north, mebbe a succession plan at the aints or the peptides)

    would be a great get, similar to when we hired Yze

    not sure he'd want to play second fiddle though. i thought he wanted to be a senior coach

    I'm a big fan of Bruce but it does seem odd to be hiring an assistant coach before the senior coach is locked in.

    O

    It does seem odd, unless you assume that the senior coach has already been asked this question . One would normally think that all the assistants come in with the new coach. Or at the very least they have some say or interview existing staff. I am thinking conspiracy theory here, the decision was made some time ago on who might be the new bloke, only needed the right time to tap goody on the shoulder. If he stuffed up I guess.

    But you cannot say that out loud, just think it.

    Usually the Senior Coach get their pick of the litter when it comes to their assistants. Maybe one or two blokes are left over with contracts to carry over. Not seen a team hire assitants before the new senior coach is announced.

    I would not be at all surprised to learn that we're all just watching a pantomime selection process when the decision was really made weeks ago though. As silly as that would be.

    What if ..... what if the interview process isn't about the Coach ? ( well head coach per se )

    Lots of other positions to fill. So why not do it in plain sight, behind doors, as it were.

    Move along, nothing to see, well not what you're all thinking .....

    Daly and Bruce as a combo?

    Cam is a different kettle of fish, he comes from successful organisations and has build a good foundation of skills outside of the Melbourne way, it is this reason I think Nathan Jones should be moved on after this year (plus he is the under performing midfield/stoppage coach), having lost 75% of all the games he played at the club, go learn your craft at other successful organisations and potentially come back one day. The last thing we need is the boys' club raring it's head again, which it looks like it is already underway. Cam has the added benefit of doing his apprenticeship under Clarkson & now Fagan.

    Mm, how can we recruit assistants with no senior coach?

    I guess if we wait a month all the top assistants would be gone

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
