Weve taken an enormous step back. Players loved and respected DB! We were gradually progressing. We are at the crossroads. I want Bailey back as coach of MFC effective immediately.

186 points was such a sign of gradual progression.

I have no idea what Dean Bailey was doing at the Dees for 4 years but it certainly was not teaching the players the basics of modern footy and implementing a robust viable game plan. And it certainly was not working our players hard enough in the pre season to get them to the elite levels of fitness reached by players at the Pies and Saints. for example.

Yeah because being friends with the players worked. Remember his 1st two games he got thrashed as well and Id like to think in Neelds 3rd year he wont be getting beaten by a record margin such as geelong last year.

Lets not forget wc played off in a prelim last year. We are no where near finals and its going to suck big time but he has to get the players realisng its going to be hard work this year.

I wonder how he will be in his presser.

You are a muppet. You were calling for his head the whole of last year and early 2010. I remember.

Neeld has inherited a basket case and a culture where players get a go whether they perform or not. rather than a few half-arsed bans for Blease and Sylvia to try and instill a different culture, Id cut loose if i was Neeld and tell a few players that they're future at the club is nonexistent - i dont wnat to hear more 'home truths' that lead no where. heads must roll.

i think the Bailey years are as far as I can see represent an unsuccessful rebuild, bad selections and the keeping of the wrong older players.

This isn't the Donvale Panthers.

There are contract and trading periods and things like that .

We cant just sack guys who have a bad game or 7 .

We have to develop them .

The Captains being 20 and 22 should tell you that we really are 3 or four years off .

I think your right we were better then port and brisbane and richmond when dean was coaching now we are par with gold coast poor club might well break soon very sad. I think this is all B.P fault he ran because he could see what he did to our club after we had so much power to get the best kids but he failed very bad.Hate to say this but we really need to start again and its time to clean out again starting from the top. Mark neeld has shown nothing but talk since he got to the club with no results to back it up. What happen to MFC going for the best coach and one with some games under his belt. rodney eade maybe malthouse ross lyon if we had balls and got in quick right now we have no sponsers no stars no heart and nothing but cheap talk from weak ass players who are killing this great club. Time to start over with a new board and CEO mark neeld has lost me and the board and the CEO time to stand down we are a joke and stand for nothing when we should be building to finals right now but were not and it sucks for all us members who keep going and watching this club roll over like a club with no back bone. Sorry guys but you might hate me saying this but this is the worst i have seen this club in my life GOD HELP US and lets not waste our compo picks again. MFC is like the old fitzroy

You can tell them that they will be playing at Casey and have no part in the future direction of the club. Ive seen it happen many times.

So crazy to speak of getting Bailey back. Especially when Neale Daniher is available.

Brilliant! The sad thing is I was actually thinking this during the week! lol.

I'm sure we would all take 3rd - 15th - 5th - 16th or whatever his record was right now!

Yeah, or maybe we could just hold off a little bit and give a bloke a bit more than 2 games to prove himself.

No, I never thought it. Bailey was never going to be a premiership coach and that was made very clear long before 186.

Neeld is changing the culture, the football department and the club as a whole. That takes time, especially when the list isn't all that it's hyped up to be.

Reaching a verdict after 2 rounds is so premature it's pathetic.

I do miss the weekly farce of Paul Roos showing the vision and the stats to prove that we were defending from the defensive 50 and Bailey responding every week that defending from the defensive 50 was not our game plan.

I am sure the senior players would like Dean's leisurely pre season back too. How dare Neeld and Misson demand they work as hard the elite players do. I mean its fine for players at top 4 clubs to get fit enough to run up and down the ground as per the demands of 2012 footy but its a bit much for our senior lads.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    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
