i love mark williams! hopefully his experience of blooding good players will rub onto us more better

we are doing really well off season!!

This is a great move.

As much as we want a fresh new start, it's good to have some people around who know the players, especially our young players.

Mark Williams has worked with all of our kids at one point or another, and so his input will be invaluable to Bailey.

This is building on our strengths and adding as neccesary.....just brilliant !!

i might faint...not used to such forward thinking by our beloved club !!! lol

Certainly great news mark williams (sandy) is helping to coach the dees. Very valuable. No doubt will be a great asset to bailey

Posted

Wow, that is sensational news, we've really struggled through lack of resources in the development area and that is a huge step forward!

I think that makes it:

Football manager: Connolly

Senior coach: Bailey

Assts: P.Williams Mahoney Wellman

Development coaches: M.Williams K.O'Donnell

Recruiting & List management: Cameron

Fwd scout: Prendergast

That's a new and strong looking team for MFC.

Good fortune to Sandy finding a replacement for Mark Williams who has done a superb job there.

Fantastic appointment.

Looks like some real resources are being thrown at the FD now. I can't wait to see whether it bears fruit. Bring on the season.

What other coaches positions need to be filled? I know we need ruck and is that it?

Excellent news and is a really positive sign from the new MFC coaching regime of sound thought process and good appointments.

As we have noted before Mark Williams is a high quality person and coach as we have seen at close quarters at the Zebs. A great addition and very welcome aboard Mark.

Also luv the idea of getting Brett Lovett to the Zebs as would bring another good coach with Demoin credentials into the fold.

LIKE IT A LOT

Sandy's loss is our gain, good luck to him in his new role for the MFC.

there is something about al this that really pleases me and genuinely convinces me that this club has finally "GOT IT !! "

In the process of slecting a coach it ( MFC ) obviously saw much talent and upside in a number of the interviewees. Did we just say thanks.. seeya later. NO...where possible it has harvested this enthusiasm and obvious talent and molded a Coaching TEAM

This is clever. it could have very easily gone al lpear shaped but No, the powers that be have convinced these talented and knowlwdgable folk to hang around. To be part of it...even if not quite in a manner they originally perceived. Its THIS that pleases me. Its a clever forward thinking outfit that can do this. When can we genuinely have thoughtthis of our beloved club ? Not for a long long while I'll tell you !!

we now have a developmental side to the buisness.. something only half baked attempted in past. We have a lot LOT more real intel on other footy environs... and they are very successful ones !! what a coup !!.

No matter how pretty the house , if your foundations are crook it wil tumble down. But build sturdy footings and you can do whatever you want.. this is where I now see MFC... We have good foundations.. and some pretty fair building materials on site.

lets get cracking !!! :)

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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.
