Neeld is meant to be a defensive coach. Our defence was better under Bailey, what does that tell you? You want me to give him credit? Fine. Dear Mark Neeld, those 3 plays where we looked good and it lead to a goal were well done, however, the REST OF THE EFFING GAME where we couldn't tackle or give any effort was [censored] WEAK. "Hardest team to play against" my arse!

Why don't you address that letter to the players? They are the ones who need to take ownership for the seven years of hell that this club has been through.

How about I address it to the guy who is the boss of the players? Who do you think that might be?

We need a new Coach. Craig if he wants to or Rawlings to step in as the interim coach.

If Neeld can't get our team up for the contest then it's time to try someone else. Probably a good bloke and all that but he can't coach. In fact, he has no idea.

No Macca your wrong... the problem is not the coach, its the culture, & now after some more losses its a lost confidence. the talent is still there in the raw form.

changing coaches won't do a thing. It'll still take a new coach a long time to get the players back up & going.

& as I said the coach isn't the problem,, its belief & spirit.

we chose a certain way back in 2007, then we sacked a coach & now a CEO & now you want another coach. >>> this is the problem!!! We won't see one method thru...

the players & people around the club are in a headspin..... TOO Many changes...

we have to let A Method work,,,, but the cleansing of the Culture/Nature has to be built on Tough/Rugged Footy...

I wasn't getting personal. I was using a word that's barely offensive to begin with, and I used it to refer to the collective masses who were calling for the coach's head.

I would never call you or anyone else a moron, but I reserve the right to use it against entire groups of people who decide on the spur of the moment to sack the coach after one horrendous quarter of footy.

Why don't we leave the administration to the administrators and just get on with our lives?

Coach decides who plays and who doesnt, he decides who mans up on who, what game plan they have including things like letting the eagles have a spare man in defense who kills us while our spare man in defense does not much. and no one is attacking the coach after 1 Horrendous quarter of footy. we have had all of last year, practice games, nab cup and now 3rd game into this season to decide this.

hopefully we lose to GWS so Neeld is fired and we can get an AFL standard coach

Still no gameplan, and still a complete inability to get his team switched on for 4 quarters

Time to move on from this conversation. I'll let you have the last word.

lets face it - we are soft as all crap. We just dont want it enough right across the side.

This is the worse Melb side ive seen since 1986.

Two positives - Jesse Hogan and Jack Viney lifting this club out of the absolute shizen it has become in maybe 4 years.

I'm really worried about Toumpas, I just don't see anything in him yet.

Same mate, I think he's soft as butter and I've always thought that.

He is classy, he'd be the cream for a very good side.

Scott Camperalee clone.

He looks like he doesn't know how to run even if he could. Not selecting Wines could be yet another failure.

Originally I didnt agree with this, but then I thought about who our inside mids actually are. We have one and an 18 year old...

DL, I don't rate the bloke as a coach, many others do.

I'm not going to post any more on the subject. I've said my bit and it's up to others to argue it out.

Couldn't blame them for not re-signing with us after their initial contracts....

Yep.

Wines is a lock.

Toumpas we'll have to hope develops. And we know how that usually turns out.

Now I know why Chris Dawes had a 'I dont want to be here' look on his face in the Demons membership booklet for 2013.

Does anyone else cry when they think we could have had Jack Darling?

Every time, BP is a retard.

Yes I remember that I hope we rise as quick as we did back then but I can't see it seems a long way off

From the playing group Its clearly effort and intensity and not 100% the quality of our list

From the coach its clearly a terrible game plan and a hand in some very average team selections.

GWS will be a massive test of our fragile mental state.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
