Hahaha.

That logic is like saying Collingwood trined at Goschs Paddock... Melbourne trains at Goschs Paddock. Melbourne is Collingwood.

So....... Neeld's response to a journo when he was accosted at a private camp by vultures gunning for his livelihood to be curtailed is going to be the method of judging his coaching? See if Champion Data will run that stat.

Mick Malthouse made a career of bring sarcastic, cutting, aggressive and rude to journos. You DEFINITELY wouldn't want him then.....

The Gosch's Paddock Delusion wore off at the Main Interval when they all piled back onto the MFC Reality Bus.

If Melbourne were to play like they did in the first half yesterday for a full game and we knew we would atleast get that every game where do you think we would finish on the ladder or how many games do you think we would win? I think yerterday our "leaders" and senior players actually pulled people along yesterday for a half. Trenners was good, Grimes, Clarke, Sylvia and jones.

Substitute any name you like. We are INCAPABLE of shutting down a hot player. Have been for years.

I agree. Although this problem stems from simply not following Heppell or Priddis around the ground. We are so loose and our midfield structures are hopeless.

Cook, Morton, Gysberts, Lawrence, Campbell.

But apart from Campbell, those guys were draft picks, with the guys Neeld has brought in we KNEW what we were getting.

I think that reaction was due to the constant barrage he has copped from them. He's allowed to be sick of those parasites without it having any bearing on his interactions with his players.

ok. but I think his frustration levels at the players' performance would, from day one, have been at least as trying as the frustration he gets from the media. Your argument uses an analogy that isn't much of a help to the point you are making, I think.

Neeld was actually pretty convincing in staying removed during the media barrage over tanking. I reckon it looks like when it touches him, he has a shorter fuse than a public figure can afford to. Shorter fuse, and less ability to come up with the right sort of responses (e.g "I have no idea - any suggestions?") Could be wrong.

did they sing the song at half time or what

the game-of-two-halves performance today is even more damning than last week for Neeld - it shows there is something there but for whatever reason Neeld cannot get them to produce it consistently.. and when the chips are down, boy are they down. In reality if any coach is ever in charge of a side that is outscored 11 goals to 1 in a quarter he needs to go.

oh and words cannot express how much I hate Jamar. 2 weeks in a row he has cost us very, very badly. A complete spud who somehow had one great year - i'll be damned if anyone can explain that.

Nope, they were applauded leaving the ground at half time.. this has stopped many Melbourne teams in their tracks.

* stand and cheer them at the breaks, sing the song, yell out go get 'Em Dees or something,,, BUT don't applaud at Half time !!

applause is done when you satisfied with the entertainment or the message,,, its done at the finish, as a message of appreciation for what has been delivered.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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 couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
