Living in fear

Tommorrow 33000 MFC members will anticipate a flogging from the Hawks.

10 goals defeat would be ...Ok.

90 points ... expected.

120 points ... probable.

150 points - Neeld can pack up.

I hate accepting and expecting to lose. I love footy, but am envious of other clubs. I want a contest, respect, a chance of a win. Not a dead duck footy season.

The dead years of 2007-12 were at least giving some hope, with draft picks expected to create or regenerate the "premiership dream " of a side for MFC.
2013 is an empty season.

So we have another bullsh1t thread stating at how [censored] our team is. Serious. How about just sucking it up and realising we are [censored] and have a lot of work to do and support our team. Ffs this site gets boring

its just another great opportunity for the boys to learn from the best ..... and get slaughtered for the priviledge

its all about game time... :wacko:

The truth is we are [censored], have been for a long time.

It's about time we as members demand excellence then maybe the club will lift their game.

We have she up and been nice for too long and look where that has got us.

It is a disgrace how low this club has been allowed to fall...yes it has been said before.

But expecting 100 point losses each week is disgusting as a paid up member.

During my 30 odd years as a dees supporter. I have never seen more united numbers wanting serious urgent change.

Those supporters who believe we should stay the course with Neeld and Co are dwindling in numbers.

Neeld was brought in to change a buggered culture, unfortunately for him 1 win from 10 games, two years running does not cut it with supporters, sponsors and a club trying to survive.

Anyone who thinks Neeld should stay have their heads fair up their own backsides.

Thank so much for thoughtfully starting yet another tedious thread on how much we will lose by, how many goals player x will kick, how big a loss to we need to justify sacking Neeld tomorrow night etc etc etc.

It seems that there are a growing number here who would actually hate us to turn up a surprise against a big scalp lest the pressure to sack Neeld immediately may wane.

I reckon there would be many hoping exactly that!

Neeld is showing that he has the cahonas to make the changes required.

It will take time, effort and support.

I'm sick of posters saying that they have invested 9 million dollars in this club and want Neeld sacked....

In future, use your money to buy a fvcken karaoke machine.

Those people who have put in their hard earned cash may very well do that. I wonder if Neelds supporters will continue to support him if that happens?

MD, if he doesn't see out his contract and is sacked, I'll still support this team, both spiritually and financially. I, and many others see a shift. It's too simplistic to count 'wins' as the only defining factor.

We've been rs for over 10 years now and our recruiting has been absolute shite. It will take time.

This has been spoken about ad nauseum. I hope we're competitive tomorrow.

I'm sure you're hoping for the same thing.

If you supported the Tank then stop bitching because the blame is at your feet.

If you didn't support the Tank then demand that those int he club that did are thrown out and are never allowed back.

It's as simple as that.

Neeld has supporters? That is worrying.

2013-14 was when we were meant to be seriously challenging, which we are, but for the spoon not the flag.

Only a couple of years back Michael Voss labelled us as the next Powerhouse team of the AFL. What year Michael?

I think he got the century wrong as well Bobby

Been a lifetime demon and never seen it as low as this

The omission of Magner after last week and not taking a chance on players who have yet to debut is baffling

Taggert , Couch, Tynan and i would even play Barry just to give him a taste

Neeld must give supporters some hope

IMO he is doomed by his own stubborn persona

It is starting to get embarrassing now

Great, all the while his coaching ability is about 0 and going backwards just like the on field performances.

If change meant continual 100 point loses where he players give no effort then woo hoo what a change we have coming along!

He must be given a chance.

Hang in there.

We are a chance in the rain bring it on

18 months is a chance.

I'll still go every week, I don't boo the team, but at the same time I won't cheer shite.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
