Said "We'll stick to our gameplan"

Gameplan??

I was there sunday night - and if flooding the backline so there is NO players in our forward half (this at the 10 minute mark of the 1st quarter, scores level!!) and the oppostion can just keep driving it in until they kick a winning score - is the 'gameplan'..

then fear not..

the extra year on baileys contract mentioned today will just be token, as it has been with so many coaches before.

Pretty much every question Bails was asked he just brought back to the usual line that he's been putting out there.

"kids haven't played much together..."

"these things take time..."

"Watts is a few weeks away from full training, we don't care for Niknat comparisons"

Ox asked him a question about Max Gawn which was worth hearing, said they reckon he'll be worth keeping an eye on when he debuts this year hopefully, pretty agile considering his height.

Overall, a good interview but you didn't really miss much you wouldn't have heard before.

Said the players are keen to atone this week against Essendon and they left no stone unturned in their review.

Bails was talking about how last September he presented to the board for 3 1/2 hours his vision for Melbourne and where we need to be with the current list and not being able to do too much in the next couple of compromised drafts.He also dispelled Gerard Healy's rumour that Jack Watts will be out for 12 months,he said Jack will increase his training load in 3 weeks and at the moment he hasn't got the body that he needs as a key forward and that Brad Miller's body has had the luxury of 6-7 years of preseasons.Jack will be playing very soon and he'll probably roam inside 50 and let Miller and Bate take the key defenders.He also spoke about his contract being extended another season and that the board has shown faith in his vision.He said Maxy Gawn is running and should play mid year.

He expects a much better showing on Friday and that the review yesterday was very scathing and each player knows where he stands and that if players need to be dropped,they will be as we have more depth and if you need to find form,find it in the VFL.

Overall,a typical coaches interview.

I enjoyed hearing Ox getting excited about the Dees.

He loves the Dees, and he'd love to see us up and flying again.

Has anyone ever learnt anything from a Dean Bailey interview?

It's not worth tuning in.

I just listened to the podcast and it was worth it. No BS and a couple of interesting comments. But if you like staying ignorant then who am I to stop you?

I agree olive hill! With every interview he does it's the same old dribble!! As a member we should be getting more out of our coach when he speaks.

I also agree, hasnt said anything fresh or enlightening in at least 12 months. Even Daniher seemed to have more intensity in his tone at times and he used to annoy me.

Bailey has had one message from each interview, he sticking to the plan. This may seem stubborn to you but he is trying to build a winning team with a winning game plan and he isn't deviating from that path. It's gonna take a little patience, but from outside the club I feel like the club is in the right hands.

If you want sound bytes from a coach, then go follow the filth !!

Yeah he needs to be fresh and enlightening for you stranga. This should be his priority.

Maybe give us a recipe or two, sing a little, even a monologue.

I simply demand more entertainment from our senior coach.

His approach doesn't overly concern me as there's probably not a lot he wants to give way, but I simply make the point, he's not worth listening to and if one expects any revelations they'll be disappointed.

But hey, those supporters that hang on every last insignicant word, go for it. I'm all for enlightening the average supporter. ;)

Perhaps he should be telling us that he has already concluded Trengove will be the best player of this generation, is that what you want to hear?

I'd be more concerned if his message and plan started change and was reactionary.

Bailey is the type of coach we NEED.

Only the short-sighted cannot see that.

    GIANT HEADACHE by Whispering Jack

    The crack in the captain’s ankle might be very small but the repercussions of the injury are enormous. The aftershock of the news that Max Gawn will sit on the sidelines for the next two or three weeks has provided Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin with a giant headache, not unlike the one he faced after the Kings Birthday when another Demon superstar Christian Petracca suffered his season-ending injury. That headache is magnified by the fact that Goodwin is facing a month of tough encounters a

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

I will post the show here once I receive Binman's stats files. You can also find it wherever you get your podcasts from. We will return in our regular format once I return after the Dockers match.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b
