Yes that is a positive isn't it - we've managed to irradicate the week on week off inconsistencies of last year.

Yes we are becoming a strongly consistant unit now!!

If he was really gutted he'd put his hand up to coach...

No point being the coach NSC if it isn't in his blood to want tto do it. Mark Neeld wants to coach & is a qualified school teacher...a far better option IMO

How many times does he have to tell you that he doesn't bloody want to coach

What makes you think that he would make a coaches a....hole

He was a champion footballer which doesn't equal champion coach.

What does it take for you to realise that he will never coach.

Thanks for stating the obvious Gaz.

I wish he hadn't added to wait and reserve judgement until after the Tigers game though...

Aah yes the old MFC "Faith in next week" we make an art form about not worrying about today. Helps to always deflect blame.

Politicians live by it!

He must rate our chances of getting over the Tigers.

The only thing I got out of that article is that it is now confirmed Greg Healy is the Footy Operations Manager - previously this had been raised but wasn't confirmed.

I got one more thing out of it, Lyon spoke about himself in the 3rd person.

They have probably been a little busy lately but I rang the club two weeks ago to confirm that Healy was on the board.

And was told he has been since the AGM in early February.

He his still not listed on the MFC web site as a director.

And on to the much improved "week off week off"

Gary knows it's a mates club. He's one of them and lacks guts IMO because he wants his say but prefers to wear his media hat instead of his MFC beenie. He's smart enough not to drink from the poison chalice that is the MFC coaching job but ready to give it to someone like Neeld who is an outsider and expendable. If he does well Gary will share in the glory. If he fails then no big deal because it's the " same old, same old" and no doubt he will step in again to make the next move. Somehow I don't think he would ever go against his mates if it mean't they had to go to get this club running and proud again. If Eddie can be a larger than life media identity and successful club president, why can't Gary do he same?

Well i think, if you are right, there will be a showdown of sorts because the 30-40,000 people who have been members during the last 4 years will not put up with the tripe we have been served lately for too much longer.

The Boys have got to get on, or be moved on...The Club is bigger than us all.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
