I feel really genuinely sorry for Jack Viney and Jimmy Toumpass being dragged into this moribund club....one that seriously appears to have no idea what is going on and where it is heading.

I actually paid up last week, in hope and expectation not of playing finals but at least of playing footy.....haven't seen it yet.

 

I kno its his 2nd game but damn its painful seeing Toumpas in 1 on 1 situations

Yeah, he's got no core, is slow, doesn't like the one percenters, but hey... it's his second game.

We got a bloke in Jack Watts who's been doing this for a few years.

What about Dawes???

What was he thinking?

Viney & Toumpas will lose all confidence in their playing ability with all those duds out there.


What was Mark Neeld thinking?

Why is Toumpas in the team? - he is not AFL ready

Why is Trengove in the team? - he is not at full fitness

Why is Gillies playing AFL? - he is a meat head!

Why is Nicholson playing? - he is not an AFL player

Why not give Jetta or Strauss a chance instead of Gilles and Terlich and Byrnes and Nicholson?

Why not upgrade Magner? - someone who actually cares

Sadly tomorrow morning I am going to wake up and realise that it wasn't a bad dream.
 

What's to be DONE folks.

Frawley is shattered. Long chat to fletcher.

Frawley tried his best till exhausted from what i saw on tv...hopefully fletcher gives him some hope that isn't a essendon contract...


Biggest loss ever at the mcg by the mfc

Biggest loss ever by Melbourne at the MCG.

Greatest ever loss at the "G"

148

This is my first ever post. I have supported this great club for over 25 years now. I am a west Australian and flew over for the game last week.

I have been a Neeld backer but something has to change now. He is not up to it if he cannot get them up.

Time to go and time for some board members to go also. We need a real leader to step up.

First on the list for coaches - choco Williams.

The worst start to a season can remember from any team ever

It's not that bad I just paid for my premium membership by playing poker on line while watching this crap but I will stick with them oh by the way anyone know of a pill that I can take and wake up next march


That's it....I give up.....never again will I go through that crap......I am ashamed that I have been a member for the past 50......No more for me....

That's it....I give up.....never again will I go through that crap......I am ashamed that I have been a member for the past 50......No more for me....

That must be what 99.9% of the members are either saying or thinking now.

Do you mean like how we have managed to turn the club around following 186??? :-(((((

Just when you thought it can't get any worse, it does. I'm just as flummoxed and bewildered as anyone else. I think we're all beyond having any answers.

What makes it even worse is that Essendon aren't even that good.

We'll recover, lord knows how, but we will. You never chuck in the towel.

How is it possible that we're worse than last year?

Because 1. our coach has no idea of game plan or people skills.

2. We have a nice but unintelligent CEO [which affects little things every day & it adds up]

3. It seems we have and have had so little serious footy nous at any level of the club, leading to:

4. Poor decisions re drafting, hiring coaches & everyone

5. People not realising that AFL is a very serious full time career now. [i was slaughtered by D'land posters when I suggested Martin needed to spend much time thinking about his footy, learning to play CHF & ruck, and less time with the girlfriend and the Law studies etc., ]

I suggested we trade Jamar while he was worth something & keep Martin as 1st ruck this year.

Have a nice day everyone :-)


453 to 262 disposals.....

Yes the (near) 200 difference in the disposal tally is an abosute indictment on our Club. I had to leave at 3/4 time as I felt sure that we were not ging to outscore them by 18 goals in the last quarter [and i was right]!

I have been a supporter of Neeld but tonights game was the same failed plan replayed, he cannot persist with this stupid Zoning, our players just cannot play it. We get cut to ribbons with some many opposition players running around loose. If he cannot change his game plan then he has to go. No point putting it off to the end of the year, the only good that can come out of continuing to pigheadedly play a bad game plan is we get a better draft pick for picking up the wooden spoon and lots more severe beatings. In fact the AFL may need to introduce a mercy clause into the playing conditions, like they have in baseball and other games when sides get slaughtered

Biggest loss ever by Melbourne at the MCG.

But the bright side is Essendon recorded their biggest ever win!

 

So what do people think..... Darwin or Tasmania? Hope we get to keep our colours....

Fitzroy

Yeah, he's got no core, is slow, doesn't like the one percenters, but hey... it's his second game.

we got a guy named Sylvia who's made a career of it

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
