To those 9 people that voted against Neeld, really should watch Coaches office this week.

One of the questions by a fan is how come we seem to win 3 games this season when we won 8 games with our playing list last year? and apparently according to neeld our list is less experience than our list last season, please watch full interview http://www.melbourne...50/default.aspx

BE VERY CLEAR HERE!! READ THE TOPIC!! ITS CLEARLY ASKS IF YOU SUPPORT MARK TO REMAIN COACH IN 2013? MANY OF US DEMONLANDERS DID NOT VOTE SIMPLY BECAUSE THE QUESTION IS NOT WITHOUT MISCHIEF. MOST WANT MARK TO COACH UNTIL THE END OF HIS CONTRACT 2014 AND THE REMAINDER (VAST MAJORITY) DON'T CARE OR SEE A NEED FOR SUCH A POLL. THE MERE FACT THERE IS A POLL SUGGESTS NEELDS'S GRIP IS FRAGILE AND THIS SUGGESTION IS COMPLETE AND UTTER NONSENSE

 

we're not deaf !!!

Well, between RRs persistence and your persistence, it's not hard to tell who is having more success when taking a look at the count.

I have voted for the sake of voting, but i agree with that other bloke.

Waste of time, of course most want him to continue next year.

range rover posts some useless stuff huh.


Give him a chance with the players he has selected. He had to work with whatever he had this year. If next season turns to crap then it's his problem but let's not stat kicking him in the dick before he's even had a chance to put his plan into action .

Not sure who started this poll?

But the message is loud and clear.... Mark Neeld stays....

P.S. RR is a lively member of demonland...... I like his polls...... And would welcome him back.....

Wow... Worst poll ever.

If people are genuinely calling for the sack then we know who to ignore, but my impression is that most who are being labelled with that are either calling for more accountability of the coaching staff and/or questioning why the same posters saying "you don't know if he's bad or not, needs more time" are also saying "I have faith in Neeld".

It's a circular argument, and pretty obviously this poll was started and worded in such a way as for point scoring by certain posters.

Henceforth, I won't be voting in this thread, and I'm TOTALLY SICK of the same 4-5 posters over running every thread with their name calling and off topic posts.

STOP RUINING DEMONLAND.

I stopped reading at post no4.

Range Rover? I'll bet you drive a Vespa.

What a dumb thread.

I've read that thread and the one thing it doesn't address is just what a frigging cess pool would be left if we removed another coach and who his replacement would be, therefore to suggest Neeld be removed is a totally moronic suggestion. I despair for the capacity to think clearly of those who vote in favour of his removal.

A stupid and destructive thread

The poll couldn't be any more simply worded.

Don't like the results Stu?

12 - 1 ... not looking good for the anti-Neeldists.

It's a very silly poll. Although I've found N to be quite unsatisfactory I certainly wouldn't want to see a change now. But if we are hopeless at the end of 2013 we must make a move because I'm aware of the sense of despair amongst many of the young (real) stars some of whom wil be out of contact and who would like to leave.

Poor Range Rover, pretty sure he created this thread to show his support for Neeld and prove the haters wrong... Oh well

I respect freedom of free speech.......but to have a vote on Neeld after 1 season???

We had a basket case list & shocking drafting....look at the delistings & draft to clera the decks a rebuild of the list.

Give Neeld & his team the time


What an uneccesary poll and topic. Obviously there are some Demonland members who read and listen to too much Damien Barrett. Mark Neeld was employed to do a job. And, cutting the fat and the could've should'ves from the list is part of it. Bringing in solid replacements is just as important.

To my mind the club has done a pretty reasonable job in that regard. Also don't be surprised if things don't go to plan...but at least we have a plan - now

Fact is we just experienced the worst season maybe ever in the history of the club. 1 win against a non-expansion club is an utter risgrace that only one-eyed Melbourne supporters could sugar coat or see any positives.

Neeld can talk the talk all he likes but another season like last and he will struggle to find a job as a VFL coach.

1953 was as bad.......and we played finals for the next decade!

Keep faith.

Good positive point Mono, on what is an otherwise poinless thread. Off course the jury is still out on Neeld but to even ponder axing him now is one of the sillier topics to come up on this site.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
