Say what you like, but in the three weeks since he's been turfed out, I have enjoyed footy more than I have in two years.

I'm sure many of the players feel the same.

We would have lost by 80+ under Neeld and he'd come out and praise the effort. He had good intentions but no idea.

    Ok I think it is fair to say that the players just weren't simply playing for Neeld and had lost respect of the playing group. If he was still coaching we would have lost by 50 points to both WB and ST Kilda and 100 against Sydney. Its amazing what an experience coach can do to a group like this...

    I actually see some hope again - that and the improvement is giving me some incentive to come back to the games

    Jesus bloody Christ! I hope I'm wrong about this one. What a thread this was.

    Let's just drop it... Mark Neeld is/ was yesterdays Greek Tragedy, and will go down arguably as the worst coach Melbourne have ever had!

    Why persist with analysis, discussion about him any further!

    MOVE ON!

    I think our midfield has improved the past couple of weeks.

    It's an area we need to work on, but let's not forget, we have Viney to add to our midfield.

    Another high draft pick along with hopefully the improvement on Trengove, we should be ok.

    W H A T ? Improved the last couple of weeks?

    They have been THRASHED mercilessly

    It stands out as our singular greatest weakness. It is the single biggest obstacle to us improving in the future

    We need to put all our resources into picking up midfielders, midfielders and midfielders

    Plus a good start would be to get a decent midfield coach to stop us haemmoraging

    Ahem like the opportunity to draft "Ollie Wines" but as usual went for the promise of silky disposal!

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
