Does anybody think Viney will get far in the Melbourne Demons process?

    I am pretty sure they will have a chat with him....

    The bloke has potential to be a good coach one day, but I would assume they would be looking at him for an assistants role, rather than the head coaching position in 2008...

    Viney working under a bloke like Sheedy would be fantastic for his future coaching aspirations!

    Yeah ive been thinking maybe a sheedy for few years handover to Viney But I just don't see the Melbourne board having the brain to think about it.

    Either that or you're the one hasn't got a brain because you have thought about it.

    Think its a bad idea?

    Think its a bad idea?

    I don't have an opinion on the matter one way or another. What I do think is a bad idea though is assuming the club are stupid because they didn't think of it.

    If you thought of it, there's two likely possibilities:

    - They did too and ruled it out as a possibility for whatever reason

    - They didn't bother because it's not a practical, reasonable or good solution

    It's very unlikely that most of the possibilities haven't occured to them.

    Pet peeve of mine when people sling mud at the club from the outer when in reality they have little to no idea what the brains trust are really thinking.

    But absolutely loved him as a player

    Would be very happy if we chose him

    cos as long as he is a great player he'll be a good coach????

    whats your reasoning?

    I would have thought my disclaimer "no idea what he is like as a coach", would have made it clear i have no idea if he'll be a good coach or not

    was merely stating, if the board do happen to select him, i'd be estatic having him back at the club

    Nasher,

    You are so right about that. Happens too often.

    Happens because the board has stuffed up COUNTLESS times. Don't try and be high and mighty like you know everything. I merely stated a point of view that I think our clubs admin and board have made alot of mistakes. You can have your opinion but don't talk about your pet peeves. You know as much as everyone else and im sure you have opinions people don't like so get over your pet peeve.

    As far as I'm concerned you're only entitled to your opinion if it's informed, or at the very least reasonable, and yours isn't either. It's my opinion that if you start calling people incompetent with zero idea of what's going on then you're opening yourself wide up to criticism. Carry on.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
