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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
