You're punting on the Daly double?

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

    Buckley head coach with Bruce midfield would be exciting

    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

    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?

    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.

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.
