Our leaders efforts last year were not good enough. If they had retained there positions i would have been very disappointed. A Statement has been made. The coach will live by his sword and his alone.

 

Is that a serious question? I was just pointing out that we will have some unhappy players in the group. If that unhappiness manifests itself in form or attitude or behaviour it will need addressing, that is my point.

And I was just pointing out that whatever the choice the club makes, someone will feel disappointed at missing out. I agree ... you make the decision, then the fallout depends on how you deal with the disappointments, and the maturity of the players.

Maybe some players will appreciate the ability just to concentrate on their football and not be burdened with responsibility ... even past leaders. It's not all negative for the non-leaders.

Don't forget Flash, who carries the indigenous leadership hopes and was suggested by many to be Captain last year.

Redleg I think Davey is at the end.

his injury list is mounting.

He has slowed a little and that was his big strength.

give him a hard tag and he is useless.

I hope I am wrong but I see him spending a lot of time at Casey this year.

Sadly I tend to agree. Hope I am wrong also.

Davey needs a new role...all players lose speed. He may have 2-3 years left if he can adapt.


I think Flash will be back .

Misson impossible will fix it .

We all have bad years .

Ours are over .

Keep faith.

Love yous all

Cant beleive the good decisions we keep making as I read from Cambodia .

Love yous all .

Good isn't it.

I think our premiership success does not depend on the happiness of Green, Davey, Rivers and Moloney.

But we won't win a flag without Grimes, Trengove, Frawley and Garland.

Footy is like any other competitive industry, people lose out, people get fired, and people have to put up with it.

The players who are no longer in the leadership group have clearly done something wrong. Jones and Grimes made it through 2011 because they displayed outstanding leadership in tough times. The other 4, didn't.

A small forward role beckons if he is up to it. The ball is squarely in Flash's court to earn it .......... which is exactly how it should be!

I agree. Grabbing it off the pack and kicking the snap goal was his start. Hopefully he still has that ability.

Does anyone know what Davey's injury is?

He has had a few leg injuries over the last 3 years.

Made a spelling mistake thought I had better correct it before BH got on to me.

No it was not Davey

Is it just me or is anyone else over the summer sports already?

I could not care less who wins the cricket one day games.

Melb. Tigers are hopeless

Tennis is gone

GP is months away

"A" league nah like watching grass grow

Perhaps the horses Redleg?

I should be the last person wishing my life away but the footy cannot come quick enough for me.

Couldn't agree more O.D. The Cricket has been dull as dish water this summer, no offence to the Australians but India wanted to go home very early (Tanking for what!!)

Bring on the Sherrin...

went to the T20 last night; as Marsh trudged off after his 2 ball duck my 7 year old leant over and said " dad...Marsh is in a world of pain" loved it, totally unprompted and on the money. He is like Chappell G without the superb career that had gone before.

Kids are sharper than a machete these days. When i visit my nephews and niece it is an absolute pleasure.

On that basis OD, I should be the second last person to be wishing my life away, but I'm with you 100% old fella! I think I even detect a hint of anticipation / excitement in your post about the coming season, which is great to see.

Not sure if I mentioned Noble Game at 3.20 today, sunday, at Sale. Should go close to winning.

Man of Awe at 1.35 Tuesday at Stawell. First start.

Yes there is a little creeping in Deeoldfart.

Usually starts around this time of the year.

Based on past disasters I try and keep a lid on it

By May I am usually well and truely depressed.

Perhaps a change this year????

He is lucky he does not come from Victoria or he would have been dropped a month ago.

Then again if he was from NSW he would have another 3 months to go.


Anyone notice the article in todays Hun about which team has the hardest draw?

Well, guess what according to the Article the Dees have the easiest.

It is based on which teams you play twice and travel.

So we had better have a reasonable year.

Considering the MFC travels more than any other victorian side..that article is a complete waste of time O.D. what a beat up/

I am confident we have had this discussion before wyl.

The travel thing IMO is grossly over played.

WCE travel a lot more than other teams .

When they have had good sides they win flags.

When they have had not so good sides they do not.

Just an excuse for poor results.

End of the story for me.

Possibly...but the MFC doesn't have the easiest draw in the season...that is a lie.

i still expect finals this year.

How do you come to that conclusion wyl?

Seems to me we have one of the better ones.

Not saying it is necessarily the easiest but looks fairly good to me.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
