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?

    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.

    The slow key backs at AFL level are all strong units. He does not have the 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?

    i always thought in the year the contract was signed (first year) had to be seen through, i have no hard source though, anyone know for sure?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
