Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
Some of the ones I was coming across were board-level, not player managers

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
The club leaks seem to be drying up… all of the intel on this club-selection process now seems to be coming from the candidates and not the club + we’ve heard very little on player exit interviews (especially Clarry). My best guess is incoming CEO and president have had to step in. This is a good sign.

Farewell Judd McVee
Jackson and 3x first rounders for Judd? I’m listening.

Mrs Jackson remains a stumbling block.

Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
Stk spruiking they’re confident they can get Flanders too… could see GC trading him to us just to spite StK after Ross’ nepo baby comments. Id be up for that

Cam Bruce to Melbourne?
Maybe we do have a coach and we’re already working through his plan?

The irony that someone called ‘Nightmare Continues’ didn’t like this suggestion isn’t lost on me 😆

Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
If we could turn Petracca into a windhager + first rounder (as long that is more like a 10 than an 20) and get the cap relief I’d take it.

Are you suggesting the practice footies with the special stripes on them aren’t working??!

Finlayson axed at Port. What happened to him? He was one of their weapons like 2 years ago

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
Regardless of whether we’re open-minded in this process or Buckey is fait accompli, Richardson hearing from the top-rated assistants from across the league would be invaluable.

The List Manager Tim Lamb
We specialise in players who are way too good for VFL and not good enough for AFL. Jump on board Riley!

Luke Jackson back to Victoria?
People have already started arriving at Rhys Stanley’s farm for the coaxing bbq. Clarry promoted to tong master this time.

The irony of a premiership defender saying that about two soon-to-be premiership heroes isn’t lost on me. My favourite King-ism nowadays is when he visits one pre-season training session per team (Victoria only) and then parades around like a professional track-watcher at Flemington

SOLD.

Remember that really small window of time when some desirable players (Lever, Langdon, May) wanted to come to Melbourne? That was a nice time.

Flags are hard to win. Less than 6% of teams win one each year. I think it’s his job to use every available resource at his disposal to try and ‘pinch one’. Sadly there isn’t a risk-free strategy to win a flag, increasingly so for the smaller clubs.

He credits eating grass to his turnaround.

Farewell Judd McVee
We should get Buckley to recruit Howe back with the promise to play forward in the twilight of his career only to play him down back at Casey

Running high half forward? First I’ve heard that is his ambition.

Cam Bruce to Melbourne?
I reckon you’re 75% of the way there with one conversation with your list boss and recruiter: get me blokes who are elite kicks, handballers and decision makers.

Petty is definitely improving.
I suppose what I am saying is that my bar for consistency is higher than 3 consecutive weeks. Some better signs, yes, but he has had stretches of a few good games in a row in the past and then disappeared for the next month.

Nas has signed at StK for $2m a season. Surprising. Odds of landing Windhager just tightened (still bloody long though)
