    Wow what an inspired choice!

    Their thorough and exhaustive selection process to get "not the best available coach, but the best coach" has delivered them Hardwick.

    A 3 year assistant under Clarkson as an apprenticeship and thats it?

    Not sure if I was a Bombers fan I would be too happy with that.

    Time will tell though!

    With Hardwick as coach the dons will now be known as the Essendon Snipers, if they adapt his style of play. We will see plenty of Essendon at the Tribunal next year especially Dustin Fletcher. I never liked Hardwicks ego when he entered the football ground. Essendon will run out onto the ground with the theme song "Macho Macho Man". I can't wait to see him dummy spit and i don't think he will have much respect from the playing group if he coaches the way he played.

    Damien Hardwick - announced just then!

    You need a hearing aid. HARDWICK WAS ANNOUNCED AS THE FRONT RUNNER - NOT COACH!!!

    There is a betting market for which team "MARK THOMPSON" will coach in 08 on "sportingbet" and "essendon" are a$1.70 with geelong at$2.05.. and him not coaching, or any other team at $51.00...

    do you think they are that stupid to offer $2.05 for geelong if "hardwick" is coach of ess.!!!!!!!!

    some people should take a gripp.and confirm with their parents before posting !! "crikey"

    The Bombers' Board has shown itself to be totally inept in its digusting treatment of Kevin Sheedy by announcing the end of his contract so far out from the end of the season. They treated a club icon like [censored] and for what? Two months later they still haven't finalised their coaching selection and the decision has almost certainly cost them a chance to get you know who. Yesterday they allowed the news on the non appointment of Neale Daniher to be leaked before he was even told about it.

    The draft camp is happening in less than a week's time and the trade period the week after. What an embarassment!

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
