Won the clearances, rebound 50's.... And clangers.... Sorry for my earlier posting. "Don't worry we will win this" was auto corrected on my iPhone. What I meant to say was "good to see some rainfall

So proud of the boys today. Just couldn't fault their effort. Fantastic performance; absolutely no shame in being beaten by such a highly esteemed opposition. Well done lads, you did the club proud.

Yep. I'm off the Neeld bandwagon for good. His so-called "reality bus" was all a big sham.

Done by a team that's further ahead than us in terms of development.

Top 10 youngsters 3 years ago, the best player of the modern era, heaps of coin, AFL backing, magnificent midfield.

Our poor draft choices over the last 5 years may finish this club off for good.

you're a crack-up jumbo

FMD.

Surely even you can't stick up for Neeld now?

"Melbourne appeared at times to have lost the will to fight and the capacity to play as a team. It let the opposition do as it wished."

just about says it all.

Yes?

He wasn't out there putting in that weak as [censored] performance.

Yeah, he was in the box coaching it.

Seriously, if you still think Neeld is the man you CLEARLY have no idea about football. The end.

Are you for real?

He sets the match ups, and the tactics and the pre match selection and it is his job to motivate the players and get them to play to an acceptable level without and without the ball.

Our list is not great but it is far more talented than the rubbish it serves under this coach.

The next stage is easier. I feel nothing.

I think I'm there, I've stopped caring. I won't be able to make it to many more games and I am glad.

Neeld will not be coaching next year, just a matter of time. Gut feeling is that it won't be this week, maybe after QB with the club having a week off to regroup.

I wanted to believe, and for a long time I did. Every week I go hoping to see someone take the next step, or see the team structure hold up and us look competent but it seldom comes.

Howe and Jones are the only ones I can think of who have improved under him.

I'm looking forward to being told we're reactionary idiots this week.

Yep, we lost by 10 goals to a team who has never won at the MCG, and we've NEVER lost to.

That's a fair dissection I think.

There's a first time for everything.

The Club kicked its highest score in a quarter 3 weeks ago.

Even virginity only lasts once.

That is a pathetic attitude mate.

We lose by 10 goals to a development side that we SHOULD have beaten, and you say "there's a first time for everything".

You and Neeld are obviously out of excuses if that's all you can come up with.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
