Quote from Yze's twitter Pretty sure it's his account.

'Tanking creates a losing culture!! The people behind that decision are the ones that should be sacked!!!'

Yep that's him.

Won't be the first we hear about this.

It will only take one insider to spill the beans and watch the turkey shoot that ensues.

Can't believe Adam Yze, who I loved to watch, is kicking us while we're down. Apalling and bitter. Decisions were made for a reason. If I recall, I don't believe he played under bailey, so he would have no clue.

There's a good team in there somewhere, who just needs standards put in place and non-negiotables by a good coaching group.

Bailey was good for the kids and they liked him, but it's time to get very serious now with the next appointment.

How the hell is the MFC going to move forward, if after every decision made by the club. X players and X MFC people, lay the boots in for their own selfish reasons. Come back and help the club YOU [censored]!!!!

Yes its disappointing, but its the culture this club breeds. Ego driven and imploding has been a part of the culture for 50 years. Yze was a big culprit of setitng the softness, down hill skiing mentality during the Daniher era.

Disappointing that a past player would take this time to make that comment.

Agreed. His timing is deplorable. It'd be nice if past players offered up their support, but if they can't or won't do that, have the decency to keep their flaps closed.

Bitterness has no place within the walls of the New Demons, it's a poisonous & venomous emotion. see ya.

That's a fair call Nasher and at this low ebb there's little point in adding to the farcical state of panic but when things settle down a little I think the long term impacts of tanking on our club's culture need to be addressed. We can't compare ourselves to Carlton or other clubs - we took it to new levels. I asked the question some time ago and was ridiculed.

Reprehensible.

They left with a sour taste in the mouth did they?

I had a sour taste in the mouth watching them play.

They can say what they like, but that doesn't mean I cannot judge them on it.

Pathetic.

What a bunch of rubbish - how did we take it to new levels? What we did in 2009 was not worse than what Carlton did in 2007. We did what we had to do in the best interests of the club. For a change we were ruthless and refused to just go along to get along. Anyone who brings this up now or questions it is only to the detriment of the club. It was done, it's what had to be done, now leave it in the past where it belongs.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
