Will this be the first of quite a few Coaches/ Assistants staking a position in the queue ? I hope so. The more the merrier and likely we are to get the right one ( whomever that is !! )

    He would be well worth considering as an Assistant. Might even be able to teach Bruce (et al) some of the rudiments of disposal by foot. An assistant's job at AFL level would pay more and point to a better future than what he's doing. He certainly had some football nous as a player.

    There's a bit of irony there.

    I remember coming home from work one day in the early to mid 1980's to read about how Melbourne was interested in two up and coming young South Australian brothers. We drafted Darren Jarman but he never came to the club while Andrew Jarman insisted he wouldn't leave SA. Darren Jarman eventually played for Hawthorn and later joined Andrew at Adelaide. Both were champion footballers and we missed out big time.

    Andrew was drafted by Brisbane the year after we drafted Darren; also didn't go.

    I've always wondered how that works though. Did players have to nominate for the draft then, or could clubs just name anyone? If they did have to nominate, why would players (such as the Jarman boys) nominate themselves if they had no intentions of going where they were drafted?

    He'd love Byron Pickett, they can have eating contests together...

    And why oh why is Chris 'Marshmallow' Connolly still at such short odds? :angry:

    You'd think people would be trying to get out of Adelaide and jump at any opportunity. I admit to spending an entire week in Unley a decade or two ago and it seemed more like a month. One morning I woke up with the worst beer hangover I've had in my life after treating Southwark and West End with gross disregard. Cooper's must do something with the water to obtain their own fine product. The Barossa is OK and you can get a nice piece of flake at Robe but on the whole I'd rather be somewhere else.

    Carrying on with the crows theme - just read on footyheads that Shaun Rehn told SEN he's going to be putting his hand up too for our coaching job.

    No shortage of applicants is right.

    This is all getting a bit exciting, feel we're leading up to a melbourne cup or something, might have to go chuck some bucks on someone.

    my money's on Viney, but it is exciting, l reckon budding coaches realise we have a fairly good list that needs a bit of tweaking

    Yes & I believe he enjoyed our $15,000.00 sign-on fee as well.

    I tend to agree and I can't see it happening anyway......

    But I do like the fact that there are starting to be people putting their hands up for the role.

    I reckon you're right :)

    Honestly, if you're an assistant with senior coaching ambitions I can't see why you wouldn't say you were 'interested'. That's not to say you'd be a fool not to apply/interview, but surely you'd take a look.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
