You're punting on the Daly double?

...and it's one way to avoid a return to Bruce-free football?

As an assistant coach, yes please!

Buckley head coach with Bruce midfield would be exciting

Very

Could be the equivalent of goody and yze

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.

In fairness to Jones, I sense that he did us a favour rather than the other way around.

It’s not as if the door was being knocked down by experienced players wanting the job

I'm much more excited at the prospect of Cam Bruce coming to the club the Buckley tbh

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

A friend was just wondering 🤔 🙄 ...

Did you have to remind me of that? Cam was in BOG form that season then got driven into the hard ground at the Colonials...

Anyway has Cam forgiven the MFC for sacking Junior?

Good on Jonesy if he did.

However, I'm not aware that was a door, or a queue of knockers, we outsiders had the benefit of seeing?

Cam, with Buckley as assistant?? 🤭🧐

Its a SOFT cap!

We are allowed to go over it FFS. Just means need to pay a bit extra to AFL house... which given AFL house determine how much funding each club get and there really is no visibility on why each club gets what they get.... its really just another negotiation at head office to determine what the "tax" vs payments actually is.....

Not doubting your sources Pickett but you over the journey you do have a tendency to come out with rumours once its actually announced in the media and not prior like the Cam Bruce thing which came out at lunch time today?

Aren't you currently in London??

Calm down. Not sure we've got money to burn either way.

I think it’s fair to say that

CAM BRUCE HAS GONE COMPLETELY MAD!!

hinkley and davies are rumoured to be creating pear 2.0 with their old assistant coach voss at the baggers, so don't know where the story that he's coming to melbourne is coming from

good people person and media performer

Edited August 13Aug 13 by whatwhat say what

I thought the word was that Hinkley is mentally cooked and wanted to take a break from the AFL in general?

who knows

it's all just rumour at this point in time

Mentioned this the other day.

I would love Bruce back at the club, I dont think it ended the best.

I also love his work with the Hawthorn 3-peat team and the way he helped transition Brisbane's midfield from slow codgers into a force.
