    On Friday night Channel Sloven cut to the Crow-box at an especially crucial juncture of the match and therein it appeared that DB was holding court, with, importantly, Sander's full and barely divided attention.

    Juxtapose with footage of our MFC coaching chit-chat reject Ross Lyon when the same said match was all but but not entirely lost and the great man and proclaimed spiritual resurrector was seen to tear a headset off a hapless assistant's head with nought but bitter disrespect.

    Finals, high pressure, sure . . . but not so recently, I believe on these very boards, I watched 'inside' footage of coach Mark Neeld in the gameday box telling Messers Craig among others in the box to wait, sshhh, hang-on, let me think, like a sad and confused multi-tasking houswife having a serious mental breakdown during a Monday-morning Hilux commute.

    (2011) Neil Craig - Adelaide - 14th

    (2011 rd 19) Dean Bailey - Melbourne 10th

    (2012) Sando (w DB) - Adelaide - prelim

    (2012) Neeld (w. NC) - Melbourne - 16th

    Disregarding Ross('s?) effrot to lift Freo from 11th to a semi, does something else feel out of whack here?

    I haven't bothered to read the thread because frankly I have no idea what the OP is supposed to be about.

    But anyway, Ross' phone broke, that's why he took the assistants headset, then threw it back a second later because the game was done.

    Not that I care either way, I can't stand Ross Lyon.

    Of course Dean Bailey is doing well now. He has a full selection of resources.

    At Melbourne he had bare cupboards.

    Doesn't explain recruiting decisions though!!

    Clarkson also punched a hole in a wall instead of coaching his team, good or bad coach?

    Nah it was Tony Abbott

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • 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.
