    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.

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

                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.

                                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.

                                    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!

                                                            I heard it that Essendon had approached him and asked him to apply (!?!?).
