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.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
