Misson Accomplished

Samsara

I have to ask, and I'm dubtful that anyone on here will know the definite answer (although some will speculate), but was it the White Knight (Neeld) that actually poached Misson? Perhaps it was the "consultant" Garry Lyon?

I ask this becuase Neeld didn't actually meet with Misson until the day of the announcement (of Misson's recruitment).

    I'm going to speculate. Misson came across because he thought he was going with Ross Lyon.

    From what I have read - we approached him as Lyon headed to Freo.

    Or he was deserting a sinking ship?

    Nupp. Lyon was wel land truly gone before we apparently even contacted Mission. Mission up'd and left in a couple of days.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
