Lyon will agree that the club/players are in crisis and agree with each and every comment made by the other 3.

Maybe he will also agree that we need all the players to drink a cup of concrete and not fret about fracturing an eyelash

As far as I am concerned the media can GAGF.

Robinson, Wilson, Sheehan, Denham, Lloyd, Smith, Jay CLark, Connolly - the lot of em.

They are useless pinhead deadbeats that love feasting on a swinging carcass. Sadly we give them so much ammo but I can't wait for the day when we are standing on the Premiership dais and the club tells them all to F off.

The Essendon ones in particular who are happy to deflect any criticism of the drug fuelled cheats.

I hope we get the 4 points back once they are done for cheating. Again. Should have taken the flag off them in 93 as the were found to have salary cap cheated from 91 to 96. F em all I say.

The media are not just messengers OD, that is the problem, they are bullies and vultures that feed off the carcasses of the weak. They are spineless and don't report the truth, but rather attack those find it hard to fight back.

Probably our projected budget taking a massive hit as a result of the current situation.

Not so Old, they take particular delight in denigrating the Dees and the supporters, we are like some sort of National Sport.

What does the one million dollars refer to?

It's the annual salary the club will be paying pantaloons to take the helm as coach from 2014.

Sorry Robbie I don't see it that way.

I look at the MFC and our performance over a long period and then what the media write.

I struggle to disagree with 75% of it.

IMO it is not the media's fault we find ourselves in this rat hole.

he wouldn't say, he just gave a hint that it had something to do with "one million dollars".

I doubt it will be positive.

You will be surprised.

We are going to disagree Redleg.

As Dees we just need someone to blame for our own inabilities.

If the media actually checked their facts and were even handed in their criticism, then that would be ok, but some of the lies and misinformation are unforgivable.

We were singled out as the only tankers in the history of the game when every journo out there knows many other clubs did it as well. They treated us like garbage and that is unforgivable. Look how easy they are going on Essendon, how much did Collingwood, Carlton, Richmond, Hawthorn cop, zero. They picked on the weak animal trailing the back of the pack and savaged us.

That is [censored] poor and that really sums up the level of journalism in this Country.

My guess is what it will cost to pay in pay outs. Schwab or Neeld?

Nope.

The media act like school yard bullies and pick on the weakest kid; if they had any guts they'd go after the big boys too but don't hold your breath.

How much better than us have the Tigers been over the last 30+ years; do they cop it like we do?

Would you prefer they remained silent after a 148 point loss Redleg?

I looked on Bomber Blitz at the height of their woes and they wanted to lynch the media, calling for boycotts and generally slagging them off. They were defending their boys to the hilt.

Why, FFS then do we as a club cower from them or proclaim " don't shoot the messenger". What crap. This is where you defend our club, not tell us that Venom Denham and his ilk may have a point. Attack, attack, attack. F##k em. You can be sure that they want to do the same to us.

That is your view

I prefer to identify the problem.

That way you have a small chance of fixing the problem.

If you de nigh constantly the problem never gets fixed.

Remind you of anything

We know there's a problem. I'm just saying lets not lie down and accept their constant bile and say its constructive criticism. I say it's BS. How hard is it to understand that many of the media want a story of disaster and woe. It's got nothing to do with helping us move forward. To the contrary

    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
