Garry just denied a rumour on TFS tonight that Neeld is in strife.

Smoke? Fire?

He was very sketchy on it though wasn't he? Tried to deflect as much as possible. Didn't look good...

We can forget about sacking the coach or drafting better player.... If we play more matches like that this season, with crowds that low.... We will be lucky if we're in the AFL next year.... We are an embarrassment to our supporters and the AFL....

I will support the club to its dying day..... Sadly I think I might see it..... Soon...

No, it definitely didn't.

or maybe the truth?!?

Watch this space.

Do people really think that changing yet another coach, is going to fix our club?

The problems that our club faces Are deeply rooted.... We have a vast history of poor administration decision.... This club has been run behind the rest for along time....

Why?

starting again with a new coach, would mean more poor performances.... And more poor crowds..... Which we can not afford.... The AFL wont us out of the MCG and out of the league.... If they could relocate us tomorrow they would in a heart beat..... The media are circling and can smell blood..... Of the whole club....

A new coach now, would mean the end of the MFC....

Ha! You must be joking. That's not what happened. They asked him if he'd called for Neeld's head after the weekend and he said it was an erroneous report.

No smoke. No fire. Just a naughty little boy distorting reality to fit his current viewpoint ..

Will the AFL move in as administrator of the club and clear the decks if we continue to embarrass ourselves and tarnish the brand? We owe them $500K, membership is floundering and we appear to lack a clear direction and ability to improve. Top that off with the coach for now has decided to ignore all the comments and stick to his plan because he is always right. Be afraid.....

lol

Who would go on Sunrise and announce anything?

Obligatory media spots with used cliches.

That is almost a haiku...

I agree with a couple of your points however there are a few I cannot accept

How could we be worse than 2012 and Last Sunday?

Crowds and membership are crap now

That will happen if we don't start winning games and right now we don't look like fixing the problem any time soon, if we changed coaches I find it hard to believe we could win less games than current.

The media have been circling us for five years, nothing new there.

Changing coaches would be far from a good look.

But we look Irrelevant now I struggle with how we could look worse.

I worry about our future too Older Demon but I don't see the AFL doing what you suggest.

After failed meagers , they would wait for the club to go belly up.

That in my worst dream is a few seasons away.

If nothing much improves by year end there will be a s--- fight at years end.

I dread the next five months it is IMO not going to be pretty.

Nup. You must have missed it. Garry tamped down a rumour right at the start of the show. The word "rumour" was used.

Ignoring it doesn't make it not so.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
