Has Todd Viney been short listed.

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.

No idea what he is like as a coach

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.

Please point out the COUNTLESS of times our board has stuffed up...

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
