Sue Dunn

He ought to have been dropped anyway.

Doesn't deserve an automatic recall. Doesn't deserve any sort of recall.

Most of the players are deserving of being dropped to gain some form and self respect, but unfortunately we're still required to field a team this weekend.

But the inference was that Dun's mum was having a sook because her son was dropped, when he was in fact omitted through injury.

What a surprise to see you pop up on this thread Titan.

This thread shouldn’t be about Lynden Dunn. It should be about what Sue Dunn knows about the administration and how it is impacting the club’s short and long-term performance.

The issue is that the players are clearly unhappy with the hierarchy.

Why else would a players mum come out and say they should be shot.

The issue is that its a blame game.

The blame will be thrown at CS, then to the board, then to MN, then to the water boys and girls, to the magpie that relieved itself on my car yesterday... everyone but the people who actually didn't perform over the past 2 rounds - the players.

It doesnt suprise me that guys like Dunn would be disolusioned (all of those guys would be, Jamar, Sylvia, Davey, Frawley etc). They all started at the club at a time where Daniher had an aging list but a list that saw a level of success. They then sat by while the powers that be retired their mates when there would have been an arguement to keep them on. Then had to suffer years of loosing. the cherry on top is that Neeld then comes in and startes treating them like just another player and gives the leadership roles to guys who havnt played many games. So I can totally understand why they might not like the club at the moment or the coaching group but FFS, take a leaf out of Nate Jones' book and just get on with it!

I just like to know exactly what the beef is?

Why does Sue think they should be shot?

Who and why exactly?

I'm not going to lie, clearly I detest Lynden Dunn as a footballer.

I was merely commenting on what looked like a defence of Dunn from Jack Jack, saying he was omitted due to injury, where I felt that, had he been fit, he should have been dropped.

I wasn't intending on making this a thread about Dunn, and I already posted my views on the Sue Dunn rubbish.

concise,accurate and to the point...aka nutshell .

Blow off all the smoke and dismantle the mirrors and Theres something very wrong somewhere.

I suspect more of this tupe of finger pointing to arise. If so some will need to make manifest exactly what/who is sour and then a process can be affected to remedy.

The first of many arrows i suspect (now )

Mmme I remember late last year when I was watching training at Gosh paddocks and Cameron schwab and Connolly turned up with some politicians. schwab spoke to some of the players but the players looked like they didn't want to be there talking to him. Always thought it was a bit weird.

On the one hand, I agree. She can't be totally privvy to what goes on inside the club and she, like any mum, is trying to defend her son.

However, her actions of going on radio and publicly abusing the club screams of extreme measures by a desperate person. Her son didn't even play on Saturday and she would have no interest in lying and getting her son into hot water.

It's obvious that something is not right. To lose the way we are, goes way beyond ability or lack thereof.

If Neeld got rid of all those who didn't tow the line, but kept Dunn (who is not even a good player!), then he must feel that Dunn has some valid issues. As do many of his teammates obviously.

Whoever is responsible for pissing our players right off to the point where it is impacting their performance to such extreme levels, needs to go immediately.

But apparently the club is happy to keep turning a blind eye while the rest of us are bleeding.

If the players have an issue they need to get over it and I don't care what it is.

Fair dinkum they need to realise they are not the prima donnas they act like,take a spoonful of cement and harden the f#%@ up.

If they can't put this aside for their own pride in performance, let alone for their team mates, then we need to get rid of them and start again with guys who will appreciate the opportunity.

This would be the third coach some will have seen off, as much through their own indifferent performances, lack of application and poor attitude as any negative from the coach.

Its about time they accept some responsibility for their own performances, some may be young but they're old enough not to have their mother speak for them.

I'm sure there are issues swirling around the club but to blame these on sub standard effort is an enormous cop out by the players.

What does Sue know?

Listening to her, if she actually knew anything, she was emotional enough to spill her guts.

She knows nothing and is upset because her gutless son's career will be over soon.

She's looking for someone to blame.

Lynden Dunns mother sue went on radio talkback the other day and said the Melbourne heirachy should be shot.

There is definately someting going on behind the scenes that we dont know about that is upsetting the players.

Hey DeeZee, is that 2nd line what she said or your response to what she said?

I'm not sure why some here are having a go at Dunn. I imagine he will be embarassed by what his mother has said, maybe even in trouble. Many of the players might be telling their parents stuff that they don't expect to get broadcast. I'd love to hear what players that have moved on would like to say about MFC.

I reckon it goes something like this:

Schwab made Bailey deliberately lose games, players know it

Players liked Bailey, Bailey gets sacked

Tough talking Neeld the tyrant, with much higher demands / standards is appointed

Neeld clears out well liked players from the playing group, Schwab gets another 3 years

Mates were cleared out for spud players, causing further angst

Mates cleared out to other clubs are performing well, current players thinking why bother, get me out of here!

Rats like Schwab stay, and good blokes are let go from the club...............stuff the MFC say most of the players

That's how I read it!

Yeah the second line is my response to it.

This is great sticking together as a club.

Dunn has always been soft & imo is the one likely to let the team down, when under the pump, if ever in finals pressure...

There is still something curiously "wrong" about all this.

Any which way you care to paint it there are some very deep fissures.

Something s rotten in Denmark.

Eventually something must give.

Sue Dunn made a mistake.

The Demon hierarchy took a punt on another very average footballer who has had plenty of time to prove himself .

STFU MUM!

Maybe she did, maybe she didn't!

Maybe they did!

rather than stu it would be better if this was explained.

I know some of the players are kids and I know that mothers (and fathers) would almost always defend their child

but a senior coach should be able to address these concerns

clearing the air is probably a better solution than leaving remarks to fester.

There has been something going on Since Bailey was appointed.

Anyone remember 186??

And COnnolly recently suggested people at the club had a vendetta against him

Oh and there was the secret ANdrews Report.

Lets see what else has been happening??? Hm Not much....

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
