Ive never seen Demonland in this state before. Clearly we supporters feel the club is in turmoil. Everyone is reaching consensus on how pathetic we are.

 

If you haven't come to the conclusion that Dean Bailey is an inept game day coach, you are a slow learner indeed.

However he has much traction within the inner sanctum, and will see out the season.

Will he?? We are in for a few interesting weeks.

I have never seen MFC supporters like this....i do not think it will go away.

Must admit, neither have I. Haven't been on here long, but it's normally split...right now it's all one-way traffic though.

I still haven't turned on a radio....As supporters we have to make a stand.

Lord I hope it does not go away, because in unity we are strong.

would light up the airwaves this weekend, but I'm going to Bendigo =/ Maybe Monday night.

What about the assistant coaches, are they getting away with this also?

No i don't think it will....This loss has really hit the core.

i wouldn't think so, everyone is accountable.


I don't know about before round 7 but he definitely should not be there at the end of the year. Probably should just get it over with now but you also don't want to throw the baby out with the bath water. It's not like the old days where a new coach can come in and turn a side around in a week or two. You can't teach a team a new game plan in a week but you might be able to freshen them up and have them playing with guts and enthusiasm.

I feel like the lot should be sacked, but that would be silly. Suffice that Bailey goes, and Todd takes over for the rest of the year. Plan is obviously a dirty four letter word to Bailey.

No, he shouldn't. But a performance like tonight requires close scrutiny. Closer than he's been subject to up til now.

can we afford to sit and wait for 16 weeks? The sad part is even if we do win a few games, very few people are going to trust Bailey to keep it up.

Interesting week.


I agree with Ed.

I'm locking this up.

This site is about supporting our club. We know the team performed poorly today and that some blame must attach to the way it was coached. Without endorsing the criticism elsewhere, there is room on here to have your say about the coaching and to vent your spleen if you like but a poll of this sort is not helpful to the cause and makes us all a laughing stock among other supporters.

Think about another club that had a habit of sacking every coach it had over the last two three decades.

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
