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:

He isn't the runaway winner.....Luke Darcy said the Scum would win the premiership

 

Garry Lyon said it himself, I dont listen to King for more than 10 seconds

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......

Even Blighty has given it to him on twitter.....something he said in the port v carl game

Can you post what he said or give a link?

Funny.

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.


He isn't the runaway winner.....Luke Darcy said the Scum would win the premiership

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.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
