Hopefully we can get his salary outside the soft cap too.

where is the line for the soft cap drawn? Director of football included but ‘head of strategy’ not? Feels rortable. Jimmy is from Geelong, he’ll bring his rort book

    i would suspect that the conduit from board to the football dept would be outside the soft cap

    well, it would be for a northern franchise at any rate (literally what bartel did for gw$)

    Surprised Jimmy is interested in the role tbh. Maybe he is sick of talking to Eddy.

    He's head of footy at Caulfield Grammar. The Melbourne role would be supremely more challenging and exciting I would have thought...

    Nah, I've stopped coaching. One of my good mates deals with him.

    Bartel discussed this with Eddie in the video below. His answer was "Haven't been approached, would be interested in a role like that with a club"

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
