Rumour

i heard a rumor on the weekend from a SA native. it was suggested that when neeld was offered the Melbourne job he called Steve Trigg at Adelaide to say that he had an offer, but he wanted to coach Adelaide and wanted to see where they were at. Trigg said that he sould accept the melbourne offer.

For my part, i really like neeld and glad we ahve him so i am not having a go at the bloke. I also understand why he would do that. Adelaide have a far superior list which is obvious so far this season.

I just thought it was interesting and thought that at the next members forum they put together i thought someone could put it too him.

 

Do you for one moment think Neeld hasnt given 100% effort and committment since becoming a D ??

this is not only old news... its just muck raking...give it a rest

And I take it you deliberately left out the " U " not wanting to take responsibility for raising this rubbish ?

if you read my post fully you will see that i am 100% behind neeld. the member forums seem to have been focused upon the process we went through to get him and so i see this as relevant.

i can understand that some may see this as muckraking but that not my intention. As i member i think i am entitled to ask the question.

if the story is true, then he saw our list as pretty poor. what i know want to know is what they intend to do about it.

Once again, i am really happy we have neeld.

 

I heard a rumour from a VIC native re: Sanderson received an offer from Adelaide, but wanted to coach Melbourne because he thought highly of its list. Schwab suggested he take the offer.

Or did I dream it up, my memory is hazy, but it was a VIC native....

I don't understand your point. Why would you bring this up at a member's forum? What would be the point or the relevance?

What if he did think our list was poor? It is poor. I think it's poor. Most posters here think it's poor. I's the worst in the comp. Accept it.

Of course he is going to change it. At least as much as one can in a realistic fashion. And I'm sure he wouldn't want to advertise in advance how he was going to do it.

Another contender for dumbass thread of the year..

The rumoUr as supposed is very old news. ..Like...from last year.

Yep as a member you can ask what you like.... Go ask him yoUrself....After all yourre taking responsibility having brought up this crap.

cant delete this myself

by the by, topics get started on which players careers are going to be over at seasons end and who is going to replace our captains after only one year.

but this topic is seen as offensive.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
