Post Match Press Conference

Featured Replies

Did they even do one? haven't heard anything yet.. normally its on twiiter and all?

 
 

Some one posted earlier that they were saying on a radio station that no one as being put up for media commitments.

Maybe they think if they stay in the rooms all night hey can be away without speaking

On radio 3lo after the game they said,"Melbourne Football Club is not making anyone available for comment." But I thought they meant not available to 3lo. Didnt think they meant there wasnt one. Are they allowed to do that??


 

The club did not make anyone available for comment.

We actually have to provide them with someone for a press conference as part of the TV rights deal, so we will get a fine for this. Obviously they were in serious discussion whether Neeld was to be moved on.

Yeah mmm good point.

This either reflects very well or very poorly on the club. Either they're doing what needs to be done and not letting media commitments get in the way, or they're so incompetent that they can't even figure out how to run a press conference.

Will they fly him home

They play Rock Paper Scissors to see who goes up, but so far they haven't quite figured out a defensive game plan so everyone keeps losing and it's making it very confusing to pick who actually has to front up.

Give it another 5 years, I hear that's the timeframe.


Now I have calmed down a bit...

I don't like seeing anyone get sacked. This bloke has a family to feed and the situation he has walked in to is pretty bloody tough.
But he must go. For himself and for us. The last few weeks have been merely about self preservation, of his job and likely of his health. I have been here before. When you know you are stuffed and you really are just counting the days till you resign, are asked to leave or your contract runs out. You aren't doing yourself or the people in your charge any favors by hanging around as you can't pretend you are motivated and everyone knows you are killing time.

Mark, and I say this with no glee, you need to move on.

Time the club tell the media to go FFS.

Nothing they report has any influence on me as a supporter.

I get 2 hours every week to watch what any fan needs to see from us.

I just tweeted Mark Robinson about it and asking him whether something could be brewing.. waiting for a response

Ahhhh.......probably reflects the sign of crisis before blood is spilt.

And given how insipid they were no words were going to sensibly or reasonably explain it away.

And anything said would just be ridiculed.

The media would only want to know the answer to the question...."can the future of the coach be guaranteed this week?"

.....Hard Question......but there is an obvious and likely answer...NO.


Oh everyone has rock again! Ok let's do it again... One two three....

Rock, god damn it!

Now I have calmed down a bit...

oh now poor Mark, how will he feed his family on 300k a year salary plus a payout

Give me a break

He walked in with his eyes open and should have known the situation. He must be on around $400k per year and is going to be paid out about 18 months.

Coaching is a hard gig. Neeld is realising that.

 

As Jose Mourinho said,a sacked coach is a rich coach.

Garry Lyon should have to pay him out

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
