There is nowhere for the club to hide now...These performances were happening in 2008



In 5 years it has actually got worse.



Fact.



If Satyriconhome decides to have a go at the "Negative" supporters this week, he will get an earfull



I have had enough now...Hawthorn & Collingwood in the next 2 weeks....Who the hell is going to pay money to watch those Deaths, and that is what they are.



These players who DO NOT RUN or USE THE BALL in even an elementary fashion are being paid the same wages as Collingwood & Hawthorn.



It is a total disgrace...all my emotion has gone. I want action now. AFL action.



Top to bottom, clean the joint out...THIS WEEK.



I will not be paying a cent more until they are all gone.



Since 2008 i have given about $7,000 to this club, the club i love (and still do) but the people running it have completely wasted it.



These people will get no more.

    But you don't read his posts properly! You just don't understand!

    They've had 153 uncontested marks.

    That's unfathomably bad.

    Mark Neeld will say "at least we didn't let them take 200"

  • Quote

    I'm now militantly anti Neeld. This has to stop and stop soon. For the bloke himself even. This can't be good for anyone's health.

    Freo had 13 players with 21+ disposals

    amazing and has to be a record

    Neeld is a joke

  • Quote

    I am not really surprised, more in the manner of the loss in terms of effort, we need to see more, we don't have our best side in but clearly our ability to run, carry and cover the opposition was down

  • Quote

    Final statistics:

    163 fewer disposals.

    13 fewer clearances.

    29 fewer inside 50s

    40 fewer contested possessions.

    4 more tackles.

    I don't have the marks numbers. They'll be horrifically in their favour.

    Moreover - Jamar had one kick, no marks nor handpasses.

    I consider that a good thing...Brain Washing is not something i condone..

    I hope Mark Neeld steps down at tonights presser...he can do no more..whatever he had in place it's not right & it never will be.

    I want a new coach for the next game.

    He MUST be seriously depressed.

    He needs to give Jeff Kennett a call, wearing his BeyondBlue hat

    Nobody can say Melbourne with out holding back a snicker or grin. We really have become a joke.

    NO Its the pity that really really hurts

  • Quote

    If Neeld is coach of this club next year we will struggle to get 20,000 members thats why he absolutely must go.

    Supporters have no hope, and players need a new voice.

    He has to be a well known experienced guy like Roos or Choco Williams too.

    Jamar has been a problem for a long long time

    I would say next week rather than 2014.

    I don't care that it's the third quarter and the sting's gone out of the game. We won the term. That;s got to be a positive.

    You're joking right, Chook? Freo took the foot off the gas and we played with no structure whatsoever. I'm reasonably apathetic toward today's result, but it's indisputable that being thumped week in, week out is slowly crippling this club. As it did under Bailey, it hammers home an inability to win even once developed and experienced. Fresh blood and structures. I'm getting sick of saying it. Further, those that are saying Neeld should fall on his sword, you're kidding yourselves. Would you give up a $400,000 contract?

  • Quote

    How is it a negative?

    Because it means that we didn't turn up for the first two quarters. My god. How are people still defending Neeld? The arguments 'for' have no legs left to stand on.

    Seriously, it has gone far beyond anything remotely related to a game plan.

    Their confidence, their self belief is absolutely shot.....zero.

    Just letting them out to play random one-on-one schoolyard footy could only improve their self confidence.

    Except we don't play one-on-one footy. We play the most poorly unaccountable football I've ever witnessed.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
