Muvver Jones put it on the agenda. I for one am in firm agreement with him.

Are other Demonlanders?

 

"We shall never go on to the end. We shall lose to anyone in France, we shall lose on the seas and oceans, we shall lose with growing incompetence and lack of strength in the air, we shall never defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall lose on the beaches, we shall lose on the landing grounds, we shall lose in the fields and in the streets, we shall lose in the hills; we shall always surrender."

Get a group together and go for it (preferably after the season). You cannot just have the board and CEO quit with no-one to replace them.

Get a group together and go for it, otherwise this is a waste of time.

Let's see the results RR

Put it up...

Rah Rah....Lets kill the king.....The mob rules.....Yeah.....

they have had ample time and failed. I say that with a heavy heart.

Rolling over to the AFL was the last straw.

Yesterday was concrete fact.

IT'S NOT WORKING.

It's not going to happen now, so let's not worry about it.

If 2013 goes the same way as 2012, revisit this discussion in late-August/September.

 

What if Melbourne loses to GWS round 4 and Gold Coast round 7. Will Neeldy be goneski?

Yep

I think its time Melbourne head hunts and tried and tested football manager, CEO and president. even if they have bashed Melbourne in the passed. Also I think its time Garry Lyon puts his heart on the line and joins the club full time. Get Neitz back at the club to talk to the boys about putting your body on the line. We should do everything we can to get Neil Balme back.

Schwab goes first then look at the board, do they have the guys to do the right thing finally.

What an absolute disgrace this poll is.

I'm all for keeping the club accountable, but this kind of rat-like agenda is as weak as it gets.

Would vote if there was just an option for Schwab

Can't see how you can vote to oust Schwab without doing the same to the bloke who heartily endorsed him. The two are in lockstep.

So just vote no and let people vent.

You want to close every second thread.

How many threads do we need for these rats to blame the board for our problems of the last 50 years?

Norm Smith was sacked by a board Stuie.

So the curse began at board level.

Who was in charge 'stuie', think we just let things go along as they have been. Shwab has had a good go at it and failed, move him on.

If this board had been in charge since 64 I may agree, but these calls are plain dumb.

Schwab is not responsible for our gameplan (or lack thereof), McLardy is not responsible for our lack of effort, they're not even responsible for who we trade/draft! I know we're all angry, but let's not just swing blindly at anyone we can think of, let's be the opposite of our team and actually focus our attention where it should be, the players and the coach.

Like others have said Stu, have your vote but quit this wanting to shut down threads you dusagree with. The vote looks evenly split so far. Hardly grounds to claim anyone is trolling or pushing an agenda.

You are not a moderator (thank christ).

I didn't ask for it to be closed, I said you are rats.

You are Kidding aren't you....The Board and CEO are ultimately responsible for any company...

The MFC and it's supporters must expect better than the last 7 years....Watch todays game Stuie.

How far behind it are we??

7 years to climb.....

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
