Roost - you're kidding yourself, the greatest coach in the world could not change today's result. We have a woeful list that seems to be completely unable to listen to coaches instructions. Lets not start this bulshite about a new coach, lets make the players accountable for once hey!. Neeld is not the problem here!!!! anyone with football knowledge would know we have one of the best coaching panels in the league its a shame we have a reserve grade playing roster and you cannot blame the current coaches for that!, get angry at the players.

The main difference between Neeld and Roos, is that Roos can turn average characters into passionate footballers, Neeld has not inspired any passion at all. Not even after big Jim died.

Neeld is very very dangerous to the spirit of this football club and supporter base. Even if the players are fitter, there is nothing more dangerous than losing your spirit.

He is not the only one, Craig lost the Adelaide boys, they became spiritless, albeit after 7 years of relative success.

Sheedy held the spirit of the club together for 25 years.

Malthouse for over 10 years

Matthews for about 10 years

Roos for about 8 years

Neeld seems to kill our spirit. I don't know why, but he has even killed my spirit. He seems like kryptonite. He even sapped Nathan Jones. How can pro footballers be so disinterested.

Maybe its Neelds style.

If we don't show fight against the bombers, Neeld must be replaced. Im not talking about winning, just spirit. The raw basic ingredient. If Spirt is not there, then knock on Roos door. Let Viney be caretaker, at least we will fight our way thru games.

Losing our most passionate player in Moloney was a wakeup call that the spirit was dying.

I try my best to buy in to Neelds vision, but boy he makes it bloody hard.

Roos won't touch us. Snubbing Kevin Sheedy has set us back 10 years. Seriously Who The F--K where we to knock back a very rare chance to get a 4 time premiership coach at our club as the main man.

Would have also helped with gaining some respect back to the club.

Not correct really. Neeld has probably lost me too, but Jones clearly had his best season last year. Finally delivered and stepped up. That was under Neeld.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
