Listened to his press conference.

I reckon he is the big smokey.

Got balls, dropped Sylvia and Jurrah.

He is all determination, dosnt give a fcuk about pretenses.

No more pre-madonna's at this club. Hit the ball hard or fcuk off.

I AM GLAD TO BE MELBOURNE AGAIN!!!!

Great, but the selections are a little baffelling

Jurrah - has played some shocking footy in 2011, but even when he plays badly seems to get goals.

Sylvia - if it's an attitude thing, fine, but having a decent year stats wise + our only goal kicking mid

Bold moves, but doesn't it move us further from winning this week? Make the statements, put players in their places, but we still have a chance to put ourselves in finals, not just a mathematical chance but one that is ours to grab. Sure the season has been a disspointment but it's about winning games - not ensuring we finish 10th

This game is about making a statement of the type of Footy we gonna play future. A BIG statement.

That is more Important than the 4 points this week.

This game is about our future, our 2012, 2013, 2014, et al... sending a message to the Footy world!

I like the decision to drop Sylvia and Jurrah - a statement had to be made. I liked his press conference. But I don't like our chances.

I think all we can ask for is 100 percent effort and that seems to be what Todd is demanding. Good on him.

Massive smokey, considering he's said he doesn't want to Coach (and the fact his son is coming to the Club).

A lot of Jurrah's goals this year have been kicked in junk time.

We seem to be assuming Jurrah's been dropped for performance reasons?

Maybe his frame of mind following the past few days could have something to do with it. Personally, I think it's about time he had a run in the magoo's in the hope he finds some form.

This is the game to win. Beware of the wounded beast.

We WILL be very tough and competitive this week even though the task of winning MAY be beyond us. I just hope that people won't get on Todd's back even if we have a substantial loss.Conversely, if we did pull off an unexpected win we shouldn't hail Viney as the coach supreme. It takes more than one game to evaluate the skills of a new coach.

I hope Brad Green is listening to Todd and not the foot steps of younger challengers to his spot

IMO Jurrah's been badly handled this year.

RudeBoy has hinted a few times that he needs to be "let off the leash". It's like all the X-factor has been drained out of him. And if he's been carrying a lower leg injury for several weeks, he could have had a spell long before now.

Yes i am Suprised Jurrah is not been given the "Play Naturally" How you want to.

Is he an emergency....(still a chance?)

But i am behind Todd...he is closer to the mess than i.

Silvia has been lazy IMO.

It will be interesting where Todd plays Tapscott, Davey, Green, Bate, Dunn, Strauss & Martin/Gawn (when not rucking).

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
