Re: Brendan McCartney to Melbourne
Good luck to McCartney. Will probably do well in a role he is best suited to.

Good luck to B.Mac, taking on a role IMO he is much better suited too.
It's better to die on our feet than live on our knees.

See to me the dickhead is the one who wrote on the poster, but I guess each to there own.
The curse is dead.

McCartney
A great result for the Demons. Macca will be a fine support to Roos and Goodwin and the fact that his services were secured so quickly highlights the high regard he is held in throughout the AFL competition. I have little doubt that his influence at the WB over the past three years will have paved the way for our new coach to enjoy a successful period.

Both dickheads IMO. His B&F speech was very dickhead worthy.

Yep. Both dickheads.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Lumumba strikes me as the kind of guy who doesn't mind being a bit of a dickhead.

Re: Brendan McCartney to Melbourne
Heretier is dickheadish I would've thought.
Don't like the fact that he happily called Tom Hawkins a "Fat *!*!*!*!", but then lambasts people for pretty minor indiscretions as being bigots, sexist & homophobic.
I don't hate him, actually find his rants interesting and comical, but I would not want him at the doggies.

Re: Brendan McCartney to Melbourne
Perfect role for BMac - I don't think he was ever suited to the main gig but his credentials as a development coach are impeccable. I wish him well.

He can't get in the foetal position because his chronic knee injuries won't allow it

Not being technical, but did he approach them, or them approach him? I read they approached him.
Interesting either way and good luck to Brendan!
More of an In Bruges guy?

Re: Brendan McCartney to Melbourne
I heard it that Essendon had approached him and asked him to apply (!?!?).
