You were a fan of Cook weren't you, wasn't you that said he'd be a good player for us? What do you think he has to do to improve?

Play in Defence?

    I could not agree more. A coaches main role is to get the most out of his players. What ever way you look at it Neeld does not have the ability to do this. He has lost the playing group. I have it on good authority that 15 of our 45 are investigating their options to leave, the exitist will take years of recruiting to repair, we are destined to the bottom 4 for at least another 3 years. Neeld has destroyed their confidence and thus the players ability. What a disaster Neeld is.

    Neeld is the worst mistake our club has made since sacking Norm Smith. I have already put money on the Dees for the wooden spoon next year.

    The board must fire him leave and leave Neil Craig in charge before more players leave. Who in their right mind would want to come and play for Melbourne.

    I beg the board to fire Neeld.

    HAHAHAHAHA,

    this guy , pantsman and hard whatever his name is have the biggest boner for Neeld. Did neeld nail their women or something. i love it, its so entertaining.

    Neeldy is doin' the Spring Clean, and practicing his new responsibilities. May take him a little to get used to, but He'll get the hang of It, I'm sure.

    Two things from the cartoon that seem to fit our coach:

    1. Daph has Mark Neeld eyes! :blink:

    2. We are in for one hell of a ride...can't wait! ;)

    It's a BIG Job sorting out our Ingrown Culture, & this culture is all about,,,, everwhere. The Staff, the MCC, everywhere, but people won't be aware of it or how they contribute to it.

    We'll be trying to quell it for a decade from the club, but Neeldy can do what he's doing with the players & List & try to control it from that End.

    We need to start it as he is, but Our young players need to adhere to the Value systems & Behave to the standards... If not they should come clean & speak the the playing group & the Footy dept, & taker whats coming.

    This is a monster were taking on, but it's the only thing we can do.

    Those already infected & are mostly past there footy, should go to a strong cultured club to see out there time.

    When we get this culture thing tamed, we will start to be able to develop young recruits into fine footballers again. Leave the off field careers stuff & hobnobbing, till they're 25 Yrs, please.

    A work rate that key forwards need to have to be a success, a thirst for the contest, a desire for body contact and a huge amount of improved body strength.

    Not once this year. The coaches just must not rate him at all.

  • Quote

    What I'm saying is try him out in the position. If we don't get any offers give it a fly. Theres no use wasting it altogether.

    Coaches have overlooked plenty of things before this. AFL history is full of missed Ideas.

    I haven't seen a copy of the new CBA, but the previous version had a clause that you could not trade a recently re-contracted player. I'd assume the clause would continue in the new CBA.

    So does this make it another pathetic and ridiculous Hun rumour?

    My understanding is that rule was pretty toothless and just said the player had to agree to be traded - which they have to anyway.

    Yep, You might be right.

    Anyway as jnrmac mentioned, if he was only re-contracted 2 months ago, so why would either party have changed their mind?

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • 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.
