Brendan McCartney & Cooney/Bulldogs situation
Regarded as one of the game’s best development coaches, McCartney joined Melbourne in February 2015, after coaching the Western Bulldogs from 2012-14. He was initially appointed development and strategy coach, but in September 2016 was named player/coach performance manager in line with Simon Goodwin’s elevation to senior coach. The role oversees the development of Melbourne’s coaches, along with driving the performance of the club’s player group. McCartney continues to work closely in player development with Matthew Egan. McCartney, who is one of a handful of people to have coached at the highest level without playing a VFL/AFL match, has an outstanding coaching background in various forms of the game. For the record, his father Graham McCartney played one match for Richmond in 1957. Originally a player with Newtown/Chilwell in the Geelong Football League, McCartney later coached Ocean Grove to four successive premierships from 1994-97. He then became Richmond’s assistant and development coach from 1998-99 under former coach Jeff Gieschen. From 2000-10, he was an assistant coach throughout Mark Thompson’s entire tenure at Geelong. McCartney played a pivotal role in Geelong’s two premierships in 2007 and 2009, and his legacy continued into the club’s 2011 flag. In 2010, McCartney was named AFLCA’s assistant coach of the year. He joined Essendon for one season under senior coach James Hird – the same time Thompson returned to the Bombers in a coaching capacity. At the end of the 2011 season, McCartney was named coach of the Bulldogs. He coached the Dogs for three seasons, before resigning. McCartney’s time at the Bulldogs was acknowledged by many after it won the 2016 premiership. McCartney’s experience and knowledge has already proven to be invaluable at Melbourne and he remains an integral part of Goodwin’s coaching panel.

Lol don't even get me started on Jones. Did I read during the week that Jones has been the biggest slider in the AFL player rankings this year? Also, my post was part of a running joke, I do enjoy a bit of humour - rare around these parts.

Brendan McCartney & Cooney/Bulldogs situation
I think clubs pump up their own assistants if they're looking to coach. Cats - McCartney, Collingwood - Neeld, Watters, Richardson etc. Cooney does seem like a larrikin so would believe that for sure. Always two sides to every story.

Brendan McCartney & Cooney/Bulldogs situation
https://www.sen.com.au/news/2018/08/05/cooney-explains-fractured-relationship-with-bulldogs-coach-mccartney/ McCartney has always had the Dogs issues hang over his head, here is just one side. I thought the issues he had were just with the old guys, but sounds like it was the kids as well. “By the end, he didn’t connect with the younger players. “There were times at the club where younger players didn’t want to come to training and they were confining us and talking about their relationship and everything that was going on at the football club. “I know at one stage there was a group of parents who sat down with Simon Garlick and the board to express their concerns about what was happening, because their kids were saying they didn’t want to go to training. “That’s where the warning lights were flashing loud and clear for me.”

If we lose 3 from here we won't make it regardless of what others do I don't think mate, I'll take a looksie. 12 wins won't be enough and a side with 13 will most likely miss out too.
