I reckon he will be getting a few sneaky phone calls over the next day or two.

Does anyone think he is up for the challenge or will he tell them to get stuffed????

    No good coach is willing to take the risk to come to us. The club acted like they got their man with Neeld. We only got neeld because malthouse, roos, clarkson and lyon said thanks but no thanks.

    Would be an absolute stunning effort if he did. Maybe with misson he could be convinced we have the ability for fitness but I feel like he'd need a CEO and a recruiter of his choice to get warm. He'd then need new assistance and a bunch of players. How could you be convinced these blokes can offer anything.

    Well I'd say we're a REAL good shot after tonight.

    Would be an extremely brave man that takes on this club right now.

    Having said that, anyone who can turn it around would become a part of AFL folklore. Saving the oldest club in the world. Not a bad thing to have on the resume.

    Has to be a proven AFL coach. Give them whatever they want.

    Thanks, but no thanks?

    Do you reckon that they were this polite?

    I keep hearing people say how brave Paul Roos would be to take this job on. If that's what he says, tack on another zero to his wage. Debt Demolition wasn't undertaken so that we could employ more people to staple leaflets. The next coaching hire couldn't be more critical. He's perfect for the job. Melbourne, do what a good club does and make it happen.

    The poison chalice until major changes are made at the top.

    ...and please don't let Gary Lyon be involved anymore. I thought Eade was our best option last time but Gary in his wisdom thought not. Turned down Eade, turned down Sheedy.

    He will not come nor will Choco or Rocket until Schwab is gone

    Bwahahahaha no way in hell Roos would attempt to ruin his legacy by coming to us. Thanks for the laugh though I did need it.

    What's he up to? Sniping from the sidelines, that's what.

    Exactly.

    Egotistical [censored].

    I get the feeling that AFL intervention is coming sooner rather than later. Part of this intervention will involve the selection of a quality coach (I feel horrible for Mark Neeld but this clearly isn't working and I think he will leave soon, voluntarily or involuntarily). There is precedent for this as the AFL played a big part in getting Ron Barassi to Sydney, a team who was as bad as we are now. I think if they send out an SOS there is a good chance they can get someone to answer it.

    Roos said last year On the Coach that he wouldn't even consider it with such an unstable administration.

    Well he's in luck because some MORON decided to give Cameron Schwab a 3 YEAR CONTRACT FFS!!!

    Roos is a coach who can get us playing co-ordinated semi competitive football. Neeld and Schwab have bled our list of first round draft talent. So no one can get us to be a winning team. If we still had Moloney, Jurrah, Petterd, Gys, Martin, Etc ie. players who can get involved in scoring plays maybe. But even without the talent a coach like Roos can inspire people to play cohesive steuctured football. Neeld uses negative reinforcement and puts pressure on the players which retards them.

    I'm all for a new coach and CEO.

    We had all of those players on our list and lost by 186 points.

    yeah demonstrative, that list of players you named were ordinary. what did gys ever do? moloney was useless last year. petterd, martin. rubbish picks. jurrah was great yes, but not in 2012 and i dont think his type would shine in a team so low on confidence.

  • Quote

    Yes Jurrah is Neelds fault, who is he playing with now? Darwin prison boys first 18?

    Paul Roos would laugh down the phone if we called him.

    I'd be tapping up Mark Williams

    Choco would also laugh down the phone.

    I reckon both will coach again, but they won't go to a club that destroys careers.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
