Have a read of the article on the MFC website. Nice to see the club stepping up the professionalism of the entire group, and being a pacesetter for the League.

Lot to like about the way the current administration is going about things.

Big tick from this OLD supporter!

 

this club just gets more professional by the day . kudos

 

Neeld is making us a lot like Collingwood but with a lot better looking supporter base.

Exactly my sentiments, Barry. I read this and thought...wow...we are building the foundations, quietly, of becoming a very professional unit both on and off the field: one that hopefully will attract players, members and sponsors.

This is indeed thinking outside the box. Well done.

I wonder if this is behind Moloney's leaving the club?

Hard to imagine Brett being Dux of the class year after year.

 

I highly doubt it.

are you suggesting that he wouldn't know what it actually meant?

How to beat a Victorian side other than Ess and Rich


Fabulous initiative, a "Demon" uni, plenty WILL want in, more positive vibe coming thru I feel. Stuff all the rest of em, were the DEMON'S.

As I said in last weeks training notes.

I wish I was a fly on the wall at some of those lessons.

I think we D'Landers would gain some better knowledge of what happens at the football department these days,

compared to yesteryears.

It would be quite amazing all the various bits of information the professional footballer has to absorb.

Diets, Set Plays, Videos, and other I.T. info Stats, GPS monitoring. Altitude Training, Opposition Tactics, Drugs, Alcohol,Treatment of Women the list goes on.

To think I survived on Pie Nights, Beer, Pack of Marlboro reds, Just knuckling the opposition. But I had fun.

If theyve done this the right way, there can be government funding and bonuses for completions available, could be around $3-5k per student :)

And, if successful with the current playing group, could become something much larger and open a similar program up to outside students. Using players as teachers, which could provide them 1. A future career in Education 2. Something to keep them amused during the week!

  • 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.
