I'd go further. Sack the board as well, since they hired Bailey. Sack Schwab, too much micromanaging, Connoley too. Definitely all the players.

I mean it's absolutely irrelevant that we've carefully and impressively been implementing a long term plan to make us the 'team of the decade.' It's also irrelevant that we've stockpiled brilliant talent on every line of the footy field that should peak for us in 2013 and beyond.

I mean, the smart thing to do is that at the very first obstacle, we should throw the baby out with the bath water.

yeh, because it is also a team based decision, and it is voted upon by all the players!

well said

50% of the footy we've played in this season has been afwul. About 20% of it has been brilliant mind you! It is just a bump in the road.

Think about the list Bailey started with, and the club that was being told it's existence was in the gun. We ARE coming back.

we have to harden up now, I am certain by the end of this season we will be back in high regard by everyone. KNow that in a few weeks we will have a numbe of our best players back in Scully, McKenzie, Trengove and Jamar. That's an engine room and a decent one too. Some of the blokes like Green, Davey, Morton and Bennell simply will not continue to play badly all year, they are too good.

i'm still tipping us for top 8, but if it doesn't happen it won't be of any great concern anyway cos the picture is bigger than one season. Can you believe we get handed another top-level midfielder for our collection next year!

Agreed anyone who thought we would be playing finals this year are kidding themselves! There is definitely a grander plan in place and we are moving forward towards and evolving that. We should start getting some talent back on the field in the next few weeks, couple that with blooding some rookies in the meantime (Howe, Gawn, Evans and Cook and we'll be better for it in the long term! Players like this when they have developed in size will be the missing links in our current puzzle. Think about the talent we gained to take us into the future, If Bailey gets sacked or has contract terminated then who ever comes in to replace him has just been given the golden egg I believe! It's tough now but the flag will be grand again! Go Dees!

No. But since everyone around here seems to rate 'passion' over rationality, maybe I should give him some bonus points for that.

I give him points for the constant and wilful confusion of "caption" with "captain". Tremendous stuff.

And throw the bath out too with the water and baby. Yeah.

BTW, wasn't it the previous board who hired Bailey?

What a happy thread to read as i start a new day....

I was thinking that reading Demonland while I finally have my coffee after being at work since the crack of dawn is going to make me less stressed. I was right. Laughter is very good for the soul.

I reckon they should sack everyone. I mean, like, we're not even winning and that.

I'm with you kallioota. It's a real problem when you can't find the hole!

I want to sack the Minister for Education.

I'm not a big fan of captions either.

I mean, pictures say a thousand words but you still need 8 words below it?!

Barge! Flimshaw!

I want to sack, in order:

- The government of Indonesia

- The department of Immigration (in its entirety)

- Everyone who works at McDonalds

- The crew of the HMAS Collins

- The airport terminal staff for Virgin Blue

All have contributed to this failure! :D

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
