In my opinion until we get rid of Schwab we are always going to be average. For a guy whose been a CEO for years only twice has the team he's working for made the finals. He causes friction amongst players and footy department, if wasn't for the thrashing by Geelong in 2011 and Jimmy passing away he would be gone. lts a well known fact Jimmy wanted him out but Garry Lyon, who IMO should stay out of running of the club, said no Bailey was enough to go at the time. l wish Bailey had stayed until the end of the year and Schwab went then.

Now let me see Dave.

You've mentioned something that happened 15 months ago. Is there anything specific you can point to that he's done since then that you can point to that backs up your theory

Cameron Schwab... something something... uh.... Fremantle is no good... something... um... what was I saying?

Given that the club appears to be the best run it has been in living memory, with the most stable and united board, and the astonishing admin-side staff turnover of past years also seems to have stabilised, and the selling of 'distant hope' has been gradually toned down in favour of clear and present actions...

Unless something sinister comes out of the woodwork, I'm a solid fan of Cameron Schwab, have been for some time, and frankly I'm more than a little annoyed by the bizarre and gutless anonymous sniping of internet heroes with no particular accusation to make, just innuendo about as useful and reasonable as 'he was responsible for Liam Jurrah getting in a fight in Alice Springs'.

Ahhhhhhh I see what's happening... Moloney's gone, Morton's gone, Gysbert's gone, so who is the obvious choice for troll target next? Schwab.

I actually have to coin a word for this type of post that both describes and encapsulates... Dumbness. There is so much dumbness in this line of thinking that it needs it's own dictionary entry.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
