Not sure that is still true. I get the impression Col was buying into the Neeld way as the season progressed. A big pre-season for Col, and if he can remain injury free, and I reckon 2013 just may be the year he finally takes the game by the scruff of the neck and dominates in the way we have hoped for so long.

We can but hope! (I have to admit to having the same hopes for Trav year after year! Can Col succeed where Trav failed?)

For how many years have we been hearing this about good old Coiln "Gee he got great potential" Silvia Its time he showed us wha he can do for 4 quarters and for a whole season

I think he is lucky not too have been traded He is part of a broken previous cuture and i hope he realises that and makes the changes necessary

    In total agreement with OP. I have been listening to a lot of talkback and hearing frustrated supporters complaining that we have stuffed the club ie getting rid of McDonald and etc. what they fail to forget is that that was a different admin. The previous team recruited very speculative players and moved on club champions. What this group is trying to do is right the wrongs. They can't go back and change the past but they can move forward and try and fix it. Time will tell but I like that they are trying

    I accept that Mark Neeld has a plan and he has started to execute it.

    We can cheer or we can complain.....but only time will tell.

    Do you think MN owes the members an explanation or a reason to why he moved all these players on today at a "heavily discounted" price?

    You'd be kidding Mr 8 posts. Try market price. That's what we got.

    Don't know there were queues of clubs waiting outside the door of a club that has had the worst year since Fitzroy of 86 (excluding the expansion teams) looking for players that could't even get a regular game. Not sure what you're smoking there buddy.

    How do you delist contracted players without paying them out? Answer is trade them for whatever you can get.

    Coming up..a cull of the OOC group.

    You can't. Dogs have delisted Sherman with one year to go.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
