Special mentions to Greg Denham, Mark McLure, Patrick Smith, Robert Walls, Grant Thomas and Mike Sheehan, but this award was never in doubt.

“Everyone is dancing around the issues - the whole football world - but I think someone just has to come out and say Melbourne has made a massive error as a club, appointing Mark Neeld as a senior coach,” King said on Fox Footy’s AFL Insider.

    Mark Stevens on TripleMMM was saying before the game how Melbourne supporters should be on the verge of microwaving their memberships, and that we didn't have a chance against GWS.

    It's only one win, but it was against the odds and against quality opposition - stick that in your pipe Stevo, you sensationalist tabloid [censored].

    Was it ever in doubt? The moment King opened his mouth I knew we had the right bloke.

    “Everyone is dancing around the issues - the whole football world - but I think someone just has to come out and say SEN and FoxFooty have made a massive error as media organisations, appointing failed Richmond Assistant Coach David King as a a footy expert,” Demoniac said on the Demonland forum..

    According to Fox, David King is one of footy's most astute minds and Dwayne Russell is the best caller in the game.. :mellow:

    Will b equally interesting to hear the Goose's response to THAT statement now?.................Errrrrr, gee i'm a goose!

    Maybe this week King will "just come out and say what everyone's been thinking about" a certain North Melbourne coach and football side? Maybe he should realise football is an up and down game, someone will almost always lose, 17 teams lose every year (from now on) so maybe don't make grand calls about the direction of football clubs you know sweet FA about.... Or maybe he'll just slam Ratten instead......

    Funny.

    I would love to see King's head superimposed on the goose's body, or perhaps even the goose holding a golden trophy, but alas I don't have the tech skills.

    Anyone?

    Close the books, a run away winner.

    What eveyone missed was why King did what he did. It was about deflecting the media away from the real story that week.

    North's abysymmal fade-out against the Power, and their lack of heart.

    What will be the story from King this week after the Launceston debacle yesterday Kingy?

    A second rate commentator if ever ther was one.

    No, Darcy just wins the totally arrogant DH award, I just cringe when he is the expert commentator (???????????) for the game. More than a goose just a total F...wit.

    Rubbish call from David King. He should apologise.

    Any other journalist who wrote off our year should also make some sort of correction. That includes Mike Sheahan and Mark Stevens. Anyone was entitled to say we were terrible (we still are 1-9, 16th, and not that good really). But when you say things like 'Neeld was the wrong choice' and 'they won't win a game for the year', you deserve to cop a bit back.

    Gerard Healy deserves a mention for claiming none of our young players would re-sign. GFS Gerard you 80's turncoat!

    Just goes to show you how few who get paid to commentate on football actually have valid insights or measured opinions.

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
