What if...?

Seriously JR what is your time frame.

All bs aside I struggle with it being before the end of this decade

Okay, no bs.

Finish 8th - 10th next year, a bit better in 2014, if Neeld and the team stay together, the BOARD stays united, EVERY player single mindedly commits, I'm hoping 2015, 2016.

Players will be in their prime and anything can happen.

I'm with you JR. I think 2016 is more realistic but I'll take 2015 if it comes around.

I want to win as we can see playing for daraft picks is not the best way to build a good side look at north they have a better list and sydney both teams did not bottom out building a winning culture, u can play for draft picks and never became a good team

There's no doubt that you need a strong leadership group, which will drive good culture, plus you need talented players. If you get your draft picks right you're well on the way to building a good list. A good list will put you in the game.

What do the following players have in common ? Hodge, Riewoldt, Judd, Pendlebury, Murphy, Cotchin, Franklin, Griffen, Goddard, Wells, Pavlich, Roughead, Thomas - they're all top 5 picks. And if you want to extend that to first round draft picks you get players such as our own Mitch Clark, Jones, Grimes, plus Rioli, Sidebottom, Bartel, Selwood, Hayes, Birchall, Jack Riewoldt, Atley and the list goes on and on. Or you could have Morton, Molan, Cook, Bate, Dunn, ...

Get the picks right ...

I'm done wih worrying about our position with picks, we get the picks where we're placed. Would be a great way to send off Brad with a win. Might even chuck a lazy $10 TAB donation on us for the win.

Don't stress too much fellas,

Even if by some miracle we end up winning one of the last games (not that i don't think we are a sneaky chance against the Crows) but lets be serious we are playing 2 potential finals bound teams who won't want to lose to us

GC are interested in Viney - he is highly rated. I have heard GC will nominate Viney and would be happy to pick him up at 2.... MFC are playing hardball but they won't let him walk to GC...

I am more then happy to be proven wrong though!!! would love 3 cracks at the pool in our first round

we are more than likely going to have to use our first pick on Viney and really l won't be worried about that.

Pretty confident we won't win either game on our current form, no problems with the lads hav'n a red hot go at winning either, and would be rapted in a win. I'm hoping the boys won't to show the coach something for their own safety on the list, surely ya would won't to be in his best 22 at the least. Afta the crap we've dished up (on field), had put on us (media), and the loss of JS this year, two good TEAM efforts now would b great too end the year and go forward with confidence 4 ALL Melbourne people. WINNING CULTURE is the best medicine. GO DEES.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
