With Peter Curran told his services are no longer required and Mark Riley approached by four clubs who will be Bailey's assistants?

Who do we think it might be? Maybe Hardwick or someone with an Essendon or Port Adelaide connection.

does that mean Paul Williams is staying?

I'd hope Viney would be approached, I'm still undecided on P. Williams as the midfield was decimated this year, I would like Scott other than that, who bloody knows.

Now that we have a coach and a footy manager, our next greatest need is a development coach in the mould of Alan Richardson at Collingwood - somebody who can fast track the young blokes and maybe bring them forward 6 to 12 months. Possibly somebody currently working in the U18's. Richardson has done agreat job at Collingwood - wonder if we could pinch him!

What about an experienced Qlder who knows the scene up there.

I understand that Mark Riccuto is in the mix apparently he has a strong desire to coach and needs to get away from Adelaide he would be great imagine how Jones Mclean Petterd Davey & co would improve

I'd like to see Mark Williams from Sandy get a run as an assistant.

Run and Carry Resurrection,

..how did you keep your posts under 'Clint Bizkit' but still change your screen name?

I think it might be time to update my name to deestroyed07 or hopefullydeestroy08.

Now that MFC has made positive appointments with Dean Bailey and Chris Connolly it would be INSANE to restrict the new regime by lumbering them with both Mark Riley and Paul Williams in 2008. Senior coach must be able to pick his assistants for him to be responsible for the overall perfomance.

Would be varey hard for Mark Riley to stay given would be 3 of the 5 shortlisted! If ND gets the Bummers gig (after Cats performance today another step towards Bomber T staying at cattery more likely) the Riley Bomber may be the one going to windy hill.

As riley has credentials in the midfield dont see what value Paul williams is other than is contracted!

Poor Admin decision in locking M Riley and P Williams up for 2008 when ND position was up for renewal!

Anyone who is aspiring to be a coach from the Brisbane dynasty.

I'd get on the phone and call James Hird, Glenn Archer etc

Can anyone think of ex Port players who have retired in the last couple of years that Bailey may contact.

besides Hardwick who will stay at the Hawks.

Matthew primus?

Primus is an assistant coach at Port currently, as is Adam Kinglsey, they sat 3 rows in front of me at the G on Sunday. Doubt he'd be going anywhere as apparently he took over the post match when Choke-o went for the birth of his kid and did a good job. He's a Port man through and through.

Riley has been offered a development role at West Coast for next year...as well as being offered Ass coach position at a couple of clubs here in melbourne

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
