No one in history has recovered from this as a leader......he is gone. Simple. When not if. Ideally tomorrow for all concerned.

Put Craig in charge.....a mature leader who has been successful if not ultimately.

Then go get Paul Roos or mark Williams.....Williams has more energy running the changes on the tigers bench than neeld does in a pre match address......that is so wrong.

Sad but very true

You are Ph.... king joking !!!!!

He is the right man the problem is you dont see it, our players are coach killers, jamar, sylvia, watts kill coaches

Dont worry jaded he will be gone in the morning.

Woops I accidentally replied to your post

Neeld knows hes gone from his body laungage at the press conf!

Something is very rotten in the mojo of our team. We let moloney and petterd walk (which seemed reasonable) because they couldnt fit into a new system. However, they got 44 disposals and 176 dream team points between them in other 'new systems'. If neeld stays, this overhaul better pay dividends.

Neeld will go as no coach has brought a team out of this before,that I can remember.

The biggest problem is our players played with no heart under Daniher and Bailey and they will do it to the next coach,100% guaranteed!

Look at Neeld Schwab and Craig on Fox Sport looking Stunned..... They are three dead men walking in this club I HOPE !!!!! GOOD BYE MY ONCE LOVED DEMONS<<<< I AM GIVING UP AFTER OVER YEARS !!!!!

See you next week Soxy!

This underlines the fact there is a huge difference between being an assistant at a successful club and being a senior coach at a rubbish one.

We are stuck in this losing culture, a cycle of poverty if you will. The more we lose the worse the confidence is within the team, so the worse they play and the worse we get. And so on and so forth. Players, quality players, dropping sitters, fumbling, making stupid errors, looking up at an empty forward line, it's all in their head.

Mark Neeld can train them to run around unopposed and do well, but he can't instil any sort of confidence in them to do it under pressure. He himself admitted as much last week.

I actually feel sorry for Frawley and Jones and Clark and Grimes and Howe. Hell I feel for Watts when he hears people cheering his substitution. Imagine what that must do for his confidence. But that's Neeld's job. He needs to get them ready for games and instead after every break we come out and concede an immediate goal. I mean WTF is that?

He has to take responsibility for this terrible game plan, but most of all, he has to be accountable for the players' mindset, because that is the biggest problem right now.

What is really gonna go against him is the players he has brought in over the preseason. He is trying to short cut the rebuild to get some quicker results, and now we are worse.

The club needs to bring in outside help.

The players obviously don't respond to the same voices. Bring in a David Parkin or a Wayne Carey, get them to look them in the eye and ask why they aren't giving their all.

You are phuking joking We r Finished.. I no longer want to be a member of this once great but now defunct club... I wiil not be here in 2015 when they may improve ,,, this is heart breaking !! cant handle any more sorry

Well well well, look who it is! The guy who criticised me for not sticking with team has now completely contradicted himself. Get off your high horse mate. You're just like the rest of us!

Neeld deserves to do a Primus and walk out on this club. I haven't seen a weaker effort by a playing group than tonight!

I said at 3 qtr time if it got to 150 points it was goodnight Neeld. It may not be this week but there is no coming back from this.

Cant sack a coach at Round 2 it wont and shouldn't happen. Could see how he was hurting tonight, he made plenty of moves but nothing worked. Lots of soul searching this week, his crack at the big gig is falling apart so he and the player group need to work it out.

Not saying he will see out the season but just can't sack him after Round 2. Others in the club need to go first

Does Roos want to coach?

I would prefer not to change coaches again but if it happens I want an EXPERIENCED one like we should have when Neeld was appointed.

So disappointing especially for my kids.

To be honest I am gutted.

Roos will never coach us. He is not that stupid.

Neeld is gone. It may not be fair for him, but it's the right thing to do. He never had the players, so it's not like he ever lost them.

Loyalty? It's a 2 way street. We owe him nothing. Life is tough sometimes - he, like us, will get over it. Mark will live to fight another day. Time to get a new man. It's nothing personal. He is just flesh and blood like the rest of us.

Wrong bloke, wrong time, wrong club. He may somehow turn this around and you never know for sure. Can't see it though and we can't keep having heavy losses like this.

Who's next? That's more the question.

The biggest mistake we have made in recent memory was signing up this pretender and allowing R. Lyon to slip through to Freo.

I expect him to be sacked overnight.

No, the biggest mistake was bringing Schwab back into the club.

I saw this coming after less than a dozen games last year and I was ridiculed for my comments.

All Neeld had was words. Unfortunately a coach needs more than words to take a club forward.

Its not easy being:

Mentor

Leader

Strategist

Motivator

Communicator

Teacher

Hope we can find our shining knight

He has to go! Case in point- James Frawley. Used to be a good player...terrible now. Aaron Davey...often brilliant previously, now pathetic. Colin Sylvia...mercurial but had regular outstanding games and patches. At what should be the peak of his career he is demoralised and useless. Could go on but won't. Neeld doesn't have the ability to do what he claims he is doing- changing the Demons culture. He is just sucking the lifeblood out of the players. Is Roos available?

Mark and his very expensive group of "helpers" have to go!Did you see any movements at the centre bounce?As we were being trashed at the centre bounce - what did the coach do- nothing.I do not believe that he has any clue on how to coach.

i agree referee but do we remove him now for a caretaker or keep him while we look for a suitable replacement?

The offer to the next coach will have to include the promise of a new administration. That we can be certain of.

To make changes piece meal may not be the best idea.

the assistants , perhaps apart from Brown, also need to go.

Neeld and the rest of his coaching team can only be sacked if a lot more People buy memberships so that we can afford their severance package. Please encourage everybody you know to buy a membership so that we can get a better coach!
