Seriously if any player is still sooking because Bailey was sacked and Schwab was not I will personally get off the train at Richmond instead of Parliament tomorrow morning, walk into AAMI Park and assist that player in packing up his locker and I will also hold the door for them.

Hopefully in your Demons gear

HG think again. As much as I would like the inside oil on the club, you need to show some maturity.

It seems you have been in a position of trust. That comes with responsibility.

You do not, if you are a person of honour and integrity, assume a POT and then, when things do not work out to your liking drop the boom on those who have entrusted you with a privileged position.

In short, grow up.

Well that rant shows your character, bet your brother will be happy!!

Colin will be most pleased to be splashed all over the sports sections of the newspapers and every 2 bit footy show on the telly and SEN and 3AW..."Dees Star's Brother Slams CEO and Coach', 'Dees Star's Brother Calls CEO 'A Cancer''....

HG thanks for you input. It is obvious the club is still divided over Bailey's sacking and the manner in which Neeld has come in has only opened up old sores.

Did you read Colin Garland's own comments a few weeks ago. At the start of the 2012 pre season the players were embarrassed by their fitness levels when Neeld, Craig, Misson compared their numbers to the ones they were used to seeing at Collingwood, Adelaide and St Kilda.

The players need to build a bridge like most mature workers would and get on with it.

Here you go again. Been waiting for me to bob up so you can have another personal attack.

I think I'm switched on enough to know what I can and can't write re the club.

How about you do yourself a favour and grow up simpleton. You have no idea what I'm even going to say let alone what my position in the club was, trust never came into it. It has nothing to do with things not working out to my liking and dropping a bombshell, it has more to do with the fact I've done everything I possibly could for this club, in my own time, now it's time to be involved with family. You would have to be one of the dumbest posters on this site. Ask yourself, have you exhausted all of your spare time to the club...

Hi all.

As of today I have finished with the club on an employment/voluntary basis, due to many areas that I don't agree with at the club, and some stupid responses from the club and Don. I have my own life to live.

Next week I will be writing a bit of tell all story on this forum as I won't be attached to the club anymore. That post will be my final post on demonland as I will more than likely get banned. It's frustrating at times reading what's on here and so many of you are around the ball park and not exactly wrong no matter which side of the ledger you choose.

I hate coming on her to see my brother (Col Garland) continually getting slagged on, it was only a couple of years ago he and Chip were looking at being a back line to build around, what's changed??? Whilst he may spray the occasional kick he rarely gets beaten one on one.

As for Sunday. It was a terrible, terrible day. All I can say is, in my eyes, Neeld doesn't seem to be cut out to be a senior coach, however that's my view. He's had 18 months, two pre seasons, two nab cups, new list and about 24 games to prove he can coach, to me, he hasn't. Only one lucky respectable win v Ess last year where Ess booted 6.16.

As for Schwab, you all will be told some home truths next week about what happened before 186..... He should not still be at the club.

But where we're at now is, we have a CEO that is cancer to the club and a coach who can't coach on game day. Yet it would be idiocy to make any rash decisions before years end. That's where we are at, buckle up.

Anyway, bad day, now not involved in the club I love. Take care

Firstly its sad you have to leave the club. I bet you love footy just like us.

Secondly sorry I've paid out on your bro. However you know and understand the context at the footy club more than we do so you probably hate them more than us! Unless I'm calling a player flat right lazy most of the time I'm attacking whats happened to them in the context of how they are coached.

Thirdly with regards to your tell all I'd say don't get yourself in legal trouble and don't get Col in trouble but besides from that if you are a true fan for the club you may as well stand up for what you believe in and if you feel that it should be out in the open then it makes sense to me. Or PM me all the juicy bits!

Sometimes the truth can be painful demoniac.

Perhaps you should be a little more circumspect in the future

Gday HG

Do you think players are playing the game mentally at training like what Mick Malthouse said and then theyr mentally drainedby the time the first bounce happens?

Garland has taken to playing like Cam Bruce. No spirit or fight or courage in his game. He hospital handballs and kicks sideways and doesn't defend well anyway.

I for one want to know whats happening inside the inner sanctum. This club has been too exclusive for too long and whilst I know that the truth might be unpalatable I still want hear it. It's time this festering sore was lanced. Please take care with what you right HG and cover your own arse as well as Col's.

I, too, would welcome any information as to the club's current woes, and I'm sure HG will be tempered in his comments, and not implicate anyone, as per his usual posting style.

This forum will be the worse for your leaving, Hells Gates.

This sort of stuff really is [censored]. For those who say it starts and stops with the playing and coaching group, you are delusional. Anybody who has worked for a company with a cancerous culture, poor management etc, knows full well how that will impact on every little part of that business. Unfortunately, it seems the MFC falls into this category.

Has anyone got the balls to be honest and reveal the truth.

Honesty hurts, but it is a sure fire way to get things going again.

There is fire and passion in raw honesty.

BRING IT ON HG! the [censored] is killing me.

Live and let live, live and let die.

We still have our jumper, we still have our home and we still have our song. Everything else can be replaced.

You really are a self important one, aren,t you?

You don't even know what a personal attack is.

Reread my message to you without prejudice and you, even you, will see there is nothing of a PERSONAL nature there.

It is a statement of principle.

And yes, I have done my pro bono work for the club, for years.

And what is your response? You call me a simpleton and then complain about a personal attack.

Tell ya what: tell your story. I reckon we know what it's worth already.

Or maybe some hard and necessary decisions were made which led to Bailey's sacking and players and others who like Bailey have not got over it.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
