Correct me if I'm wrong, but there's only been one case where a caretaker coach went on to win a premiership. So perhaps that should be "other club".

I am becoming to YouTube videos what Stuie is to gifs but as I was cruising around YouTube and found this piece from 'Labor in Power' (90's doco on the Hawke/Keating government). What Robert Ray and Gareth Evans say about Bob Hawke might apply to a certain AFL coach we talk about on this forum. (Watch till 1:28)
Edit: The second speaker isn't Robert Ray. Any idea who it is?

I totally agree with the comments made in the video and the next question is a simple one. If the 'powers to be' can't or want make a decision on the coach do well also have to change them as well? May as well do a full change in leadership and support roles and get rid of all those not capabily of performing their role and responsibilities to the standarf necessary as like any cancer cell you leave one behind and you will be infected again.

Also why does MFC need two Captain! Let pick an on field leader and trust and support him, if we need more leader then make them a Vice Captain.

I not seen multiply Captain work yet.

I believe it is Senator (NT) Bob Collins CBF - brings back a lot of political memories.

Maybe we need Keating to come down from Potts' Point to give the boys a rev up at half time? If their feelings are hurt by some of what Neeldy has to say, imagine how they will feel after PJ Keating gets a hold of them.

Someone get rid of this poor excuse of a coach before this club is forced to fold.

Enough is enough.

We don't have the luxury to hold on to this loser until the end of the season

If he's not gone on Monday they can shove their membership up their date.

These next 3 games freo, hawks and pies will spell the end for Neeld the board will force him to resign as coach following 3 massive losses. Do himself and us as supporters a favour and leave, so we can all take a breath and get on with it

Sack this incompetent ****

I think it's time

It's time.

Surely this muppet was a plant by Eddie to destroy us from the inside out.

its past time

This is disgusting ... I want neeld and craig gone. Binet would get us going more than this.

You know his biggest mistake was forking out the $$$ on Clarke and Dawes when he should have bought 2 quality midfielders. He seems obsessed with big forwards. Yes I know they are good players but we got no engine. A shiny car with no engine (ok a dented up piece of junk with a nice badge and no engine maybe).

You might like this Hardnut. For our current circumstances, a more appropriate song there is not.

personally I think the badge sucks.

I allowed Neeld more time than most but it's time. We need a real coach and we need one before the season ends.

Wow. You have even seen the light.

Well done.

Dont know if i have replied in this topic for a while.

Now its me or Neeld. I cant take it anymore. Its my opinion that many senior players have decided to go in the past couple of weeks.

Im off till he is gone. My family and dog will be happier.

EFA given we've somehow gone backwards since Bailey.

Good adjustment

He has failed in the first component of coaching, to even get the team up and ready to play 4 quarter football for him, for each other, for the fans, whoever. He may be a tactical genius but he never even gave himself a platform to show it, but I think we all know full well he isn't.

I thought Neeld would coach out the season but now I would be very surprised if he lasts the week. Let Craig coach for the rest of the season.
