You work for the left wing ABC ?

No, I won't have it.

I strongly believe that, beginning with 2013 and while Neeld is coach of the MFC, we will never endure another losing season...his mantra "hardest team to play against" will ring in the players and supporters ears for a decade or more.

You're not listening. Bailey's game was all run and carry. It got him the sack.

Neeld is trying re-balance the ledger. It takes time. You'll see far more spread this year.

Pretty sure WYL is listening chief. Bailey's game was run and carry, most of the time backwards, sideways or the wrong way.

I think WYL was saying that considering the MCG is our home ground, how is it our players haven't figured out how to use its open spaces to their advantage. But firstly they need to be fit enough...that's the starting point.

Save your breath Neeter. Stuie doesn't get it !

I thought you guys liked this thread? Why are you talking so much about me and so little about the topic, or mudbaths, or lesbians, or all the other BS you post here that's not footy related.

Actually being factual. Have a look through Biffen and BBO's posts those are the most common themes.

He was a token conservative, but didn't appear this year due to his new show on a rival network.

Seeing as you're interested in my humour... It's hilarious that you call "insiders" balanced.

Are we talking Bolt or Akerman? After reading Kinky Friedman novels, I seriously wonder about Akerman's conservatism.

Dean Bailey's forward spread and running patterns were outstanding - when they were on! It was the almost total absence of defensive structures around the ground that stuffed us around. Even really good defensive footballers like Chip found it tough to be defensive with no structure for support.

2013 will be a pleasure/pain year for mine.

PLEASURE

I don't reckon we will get beaten once by 10 goals. We will slowly become that team who is hard to beat. Most of our losses will be within 20 points.

We will surprise lazy teams like Bombers, Tigers, St. Kilda and probably beat them

Our skill level will finally rise. Blease, Toumpas, Watts, Clark, - these players are skillful and will be delivering into our forward 50.

We get to see a spine of Frawley, McDonald, Jones, Dawes, Clark and a midfield including Trengove, McKenzie, Sylvia, Grimes, Viney, Toumpas etc...

Our body size means we match it at the contest with Pies, Eagles, Hawks, Swans.

PAIN

Through inexperience and some brain-fades we will lose to teams we should beat - Brisbane, North Melbourne etc...

Our skill level will hurt us when we think we are past the worst

Our interstate record is appalling and I can't see this changing too much yet. GWS and Suns aside.

10 wins maximum for me this year.

having Bolt and Ackerman on gave you a very loud voice.

Insiders is a very balanced show. Barry is a great man who wouldn't have it any other way.

No, it's not balanced. And Cassidy was Hawke's Press Secretary when he was Prime Minister. He's not as bad as some, but often his bias shows. I won't take your word on Barry's greatness. I wouldn't take your word on anything.

Fine. I am really not concerned.

We all know your views.

Yes, they're conservative.

And we know yours too. A lefty who worked/works for the ABC that thinks Insiders is "balanced" and that Hawke's former Press Secretary is a "great man". And one who knows all about "climate change", because he "follows weather patterns closely".

You're a laugh a minute.

no you have no idea what my views are.

You just think all ABC Employees think all the same way in one direction.

Not true i assure you.

But dream on.

Thanks, anything for the ABC boys. Not many laughs there.

Tell me WYL, how many of your posts have been made while you've been at work?

?... that question could apply to 99.999% of those who post on here... not just ABC employees.

I have never understood the animosity directed at the ABC myself... especially when you consider the ownership of commercial networks/press and their often unabashed political leanings. And before anyone jumps on the taxpayer funded bus, we all pay for the other networks in one way or another.

Just imagine what Australian Media would be like WITHOUT the ABC for a moment.....

Rupert would have a field day...The ABC is far more balanced than that [censored].

Spot on HT.

They all watch it and are secretly glad old Aunty exists.

The adjective "Balanced' is being used as an affirmation of being a "Gemini" and also as a description of Andrew Bolt.

It would give me something to think about if I wasnt working.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
