Today Carlton had 110 more possessions yet somehow also had 30 more tackles. 30.


Before today we averaged 94 less disposals and 4 less tackles per game.

No question the effort lifted for a little while today, but why is our defence so bad when we've brought in an apparently defensive minded coach?

Never been so frustrated with the club I love. If 186 was the players telling us something, what has this year been so far?

Stuie, I like your contributions but I reckon this is a [censored] poor argument

Firsty, Neeld clearly says he wants to coach - at no stage is it give it would happen straight away.

Second, your personal expectations of the ability of the team are far off

Thirdly, how can you match possession counts when you dont win the ball and te players continually bomb it?

Why our team mates dot use open players really worries and annoys me. Not sure if aneeosnis to blame as I don't know the instructions, but back to point it's not Neelds fault

These threads trying to blindly lay blame [censored] me off... If you couldnt tell haha

this is what happens when you make a school teacher the coach of your AFL team

It's not but in an elite sports industry if we don't see results someone's head has to roll and unfortunately it's just about always the head coach.

Haha I am still pretty light headed from last night...

You're rebuttal confirms how [censored] poor argument is

Hey mods, this might be better suited to the post match thread, can you guys delete it?

Cheers

Yes, please delete another anti-Neeld thread. We've got the message from you Stuie. Have for a while. Getting boring.

I have never seen a team beaten so comprehensively in marking contests - absolutely rubbish

this is apart from the appalling skills and decision making

a better team would have beat us by more than 100 points

i really don't think i can watch this anymore

We are the hardest to play against.

Opposition coaches must find it hard to make their players stick to their structures when they are rolling over us with such ease.

Carlton may not have had Kruezer today but they resemble one at the MCG.

We really were pitiful against a Club which showed as much intensity as country BBQ jolly match in February.

Bruise free football is alive and well at MFC.

We're certainly the hardest team to watch and the hardest team to follow passionately.

Absolutely

perhaps nothing is up - they just suck.

Listened to some of the game on radio, seems we made a lot of errors by foot, still I look forward to a forward line of clark, Hogan and dawes and a hopefully revamped midfield for 2014

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.
