I believe the Dees are in need of a change of president, someone in possession of a lot more charisma and influence being my preference for the job. It's obvious the club president has an important role and is an essential part of a good team (Koch's takeover of port and their subsequent re-vitalization being an example of this).

So my question is, Who's an ideal club president? Matt Damon is apparently a dee's fan, as is Ana Ivanovich, could they be the right people for the job? (Since they'd definitely be interested in the position).

Let you into a secret, Redleg is the man for the job. He would get everyone working together and build an inclusive, successful, football club. He would also get rid of the carbon tax and make MFC memberships cheaper.

Well if you become President then Julia Gillard should be the CEO.

Redleg and the Redhead - another mentor/pupil situation and based on the way the country's running at the moment it sounds like a truly Melbournesque combination.

Sorry 'redleg' and 'Jack' but isn't Bob Hawke mister charisma, just what we need to get the factions together. Keating as CEO of the banana republic that is the MFC, get rid of the ridiculous KPI's at the FD and bring in the "J" curve and we're on our way. Will need a succession plan, Eddies has worked as well as Bob's and John's.

Politics of any kind, isn't it a wonderful thing.

A drovers dog could run this club.

We've got double digit failure, and double digit coach replacement.

Next President, Tim Wilson.

Robbie Flower by the length of the straight. However, If wishes were horses & he won't, can we at least have someone who's pleasant to look at.....no offence to Don. My candidate (for our first lady president) is Candice Swanepoel !!!

As you can see she's also a fully fledged Demon already.....

This whole replace the president, replace the CEO, replace the coach, replace the <insert target>, thing has become an absolute YAWN fest! All we see is countless repetition of the same arguments on both sides of the fence and the same agenda driven destabilisation proponents!

Mods, I beg you, please shut this thread down!

Ok, I'll nominate Range Rover and his minions for the board, just so that we can start a whole new raft of threads just like this, calling for their sacking and calling for nominations for their potential replacements.

My vote for club Prez is Barack Hussein Obama as he often likes to quote MLK's rathe famous line 'The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice'. After 6 of the most miserable seasons imaginable we sure know about the long, slow wait.

Maybe Neeldy should pull that one at the Presser this week? Could make for something different for the press to write about, and with Watts out they'll be struggling for a story.

It's time for Garry Lyon to step-up!!!! Seriously!!!

If 'what's his name' can do it for Norf, then Garry can do it for us. He has all the required attributes; football savvy, speaking ability, respect of the football public, connections, a well paid job outside of football and most importantly, BALLS.

If he doesn't step out of the shadows soon, like his mate Jim did when the club was in desperate need, I personally will be signing him off as a downhill skier for ever. (a great player and leader on the football field for the MFC.....but off it....hmmmm.)

Personally I feel he owes the MFC because he has 'talked-it-up' over the years but has baulked at every opportunity to coach or get permanently involved but still claims to know what we need.

When we need a new President, Garry should be it.

Go Dees

    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

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.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    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
