This bloke was appointed because his reputation was solid at Collingwood. Somehow for reasons we are not privy to it has all come apart for him.

Surely he is better than this....surely!! We have to give this man time and show some faith.

 

its all positive from here on in, should beat brizzy and we will all be on the road to happiness

But if you ain't got the cattle, you ain't got the cattle.

And if you've got the 18th ranked midfield, you're prone to being ranked really low for i50's and ranked really high for defensive i50 entries.

For Neeld's sake he needs the midfield to generate into something effective. And with Jones, Jamar, McKenzie (inj- coming back), a splattering of first year players in Viney, Toumpas, and some mature players who may be inconsistent - Sylvia, Bail, Jones......plus our skippers...

It really is an underwhelming midfield lacking quality and any cohesion at present.

I hope for his sake he starts winning, but the players will decide his fate in the coming weeks.

 

But if you ain't got the cattle, you ain't got the cattle.

That is the sad truth

IMO we have the worst list including the newbys

I doubt JC could turn them into a side above fourth last.

In the same breath it is hard to believe that this list is 19 goals worse than Port.

In the first two Games we have not been AFL standard.

Is the list that bad?

I don't know but another similar result on Saturday and I will say yes

be positive. looking for 2nd win against brizzy. and then things will seem better for all of us

he has weeks...


i'm a firm believer that we need to give Neeldy a good 5 year crack at it.

He has been handed a big ol' mess. Give him longer than 2 years, please.

he has weeks...

Sadly I think you are correct.

NO AFL team could keep their coach if he continued to coach and get results like the last two weeks.

On field currently we are a shambles.

That cannot continue for months, a few weeks pehaps but not months.

Lets not forget he has taken an average side to a poor side to one that is currently not even worthy of being in the competition.

God I hope they show some fight this weekend

be positive. looking for 2nd win against brizzy. and then things will seem better for all of us

So you have forfeited this week or next week?

You are supposing a clataclysm occurs against GWS.

I am expecting changes to the mindset of the players against WCE and solid improvement leading into the GWS game. I don't expect a loss.

I am hoping that some magic has been weaved at Sorrento and he has connected with the players.

Whilst i agree our mid field is woeful (which does beg the question why Neeld has been so focused on talls) by far the the biggest issue is the players are not playing for him.

If that is not solved he's gone. If he can fix whatever is broken then things will improve and he'll stay. I sincerely hope he gets to stay.

I tend to agree.

GWS could be the nail / straw...

i want Neeld to survive but he has to prove his ability in a matter of weeks.

There was no spark in either Round 1 or 2

No life = Death.


Neeld's coached 24 games so far and he's on his 3rd gameplan already.Remember the first few games last year where we hugged the boundary line coming out of the back pocket and by the time we played West Coast in round 4 or 5,Niknat would stand 5 metres in from the boundary line all day and he took mark after mark.Then he changed it up using more of the corridor and we got cut up on the rebound because of our poor foot skills.Now it the zone defence where we are standing 5-6 metres off our opponent and we get carved up by teams with pinpoint kicking and we are so far away from our opponents,we can't even lay tackles and pressure the ball carrier.

Sorry,but there has never been a coach that has done so much damage in 24 games of coaching,sent us back 3 years and don't get me started on the recuiting of VFL hacks.I shudder to think if Neeld coaches us for another 2 years.

I think he tried real hard to get midfielders from elsewhere that we're on the move or OOC, eg, Wellingham, BJ, etc, but they were not interested.

 

Responsibility for our demise rests on this muppets shoulders.

He should resign in shame.

He should go for the good of the team.

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
