Maybe Garry Lyon can sit out on the next coach being appointed.

Watching this game with the gold coast is one of the more painful things i have ever done, it raises a very serious question

what can we do to get out of this hole? if there is anything.

We needed to have an experienced hand on the wheel back in 2008, (preferably back in 2006) & before that we had a chance to get an out of coaching Leigh Matthews back in 1998 !

We need a Coach who really understands a "Clubs" weaknesses & well address them as well as the players.

We missed Matthews in 1997/8, & we missed Sheedy in 2006-2008... 'We', could have had Sheeds for 4 Yrs to sort out the Club & its character flaws, before he was needed up in GWS...

...we would have been right for a new coach, after Sheeds sorted things out.

.... Stop getting Admin's & Board members from within the Northern Stands. they couldn't run the Chelsea 3rds. let them concentrate on business...

And let Footy People run the Melbourne Demons Footy Club, with help from some business acumen.

The bottom of the ladder after GWS thrash us.

The bottom of the membership ladder when under 20000 rejoin next year - unless drastic changes take place.

The Northern Territory after the MCC kick us out for embarassing them.

IF, they chuck out the Prima Donna soft culture of the decades, & build a Training/Social Hub, I will be the first Back on, & I will make a donation as well..

If they stay the way they've been for the last 20 Yrs since 1992, I won't bother with footy again.

We changed the club back in 1981 - 1987.... that lasted til 1992.

From there it slowly withered away, with players allowed to get aHead of themselves,,,, & so do the administrators, & boards.. get them all away from the Northern stand. & let the club get its toes back into the Earth again... back down to earth, & we'll keep our kids heads right.

... we should only play our Home games @ the 'G'...

I was thinking earlier that just as there is the perfect murder, from 2006 onwards, it has been the perfect destruction of a football club.

Every move, perfectly executed.

From here, keep buying your membership(s) and turn up to games if you are willing to accept the team won't win, and you'll be lucky to get a quarter's worth of competitive effort.

    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 few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

    Some veteran Demonland Trackwatchers ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you the following observations from another Preseason Training Session. WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    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)

    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
