Good news but only the tip of the iceberg

 

Great...18m ...hope he stays longer.


He needs to be given the chance to restructure the club and now he has been. The next month will be interesting to see what recommendations he makes.

Many say neeld fractured the club by making moves too early. Looking forward to seeing how this plays out

... this is fantastic,,, depression has hit since yesterday evening, & I think I need to get away from the computer & get outside to get as much daylight as I can.

what a relief... re PJackson. I smell a nice little win win coming on down the track, from the left of field...

I started watching the replay this afternoon, I watched 3 Qtrs of the game except the last. apart from our lack of composure causing terribly ordinary disposal errors, we actually went OK... but our turnovers killed us on the scoreboard.

..... & Jack Watts went better in his involvement in the action near him,,, not perfect, but enough to see he has, what is worth persevering with... & his kicking, well I'm not telling anyone anything, by saying its great.

I can see improvement, I can see learning, but its just not showing Yet on the scoreboard... against stronger teams. but it will after the break, when we play some teams from our current part of the ladder.

I haven't watched the replay yet but i will..... I agree with your summary Deeluded - we got smashed on the scoreboard but it wasn't all doom and gloom

I accept people will smash me for having the non popular opinio,n but I've listened to Dawes and Neeld over the past few weeks and you can see positive changes if you look through the scoreboard results

Hope he recommends a big surprise win on Monday, and the players take up the challenge :-))))))))

On a serious note, we have been fortunate to have him on board. Now he may well be a masochist to take this on, but hey, join the club......all longstanding MFC members and supporters are by their nature mascohistic or they wouldn't stick around.

Good get, our luck is turning.

I can feel another win coming on!

All great - until he slots in Matthew Knights as senior coach...

rather than getting so excited with the new kid on the block, how about we just say sit back and see what he actually does before we cry hallelujah

I think this is a plus to have a person of his caliber overseeing things at the club and with no danger of having bias extending his stay

His reputation of making sound and tough decisions should at least give supporters some confidence and hope for the future success of the club on and off the field

Peter Jackson's record at Melbourne has been disgraceful and it's time for him to go:

P W L F A %

6 0 6 274 614 44.6

Time to go for someone young with fresh ideas! :)

Good luck sir, the methodical steps to some success please let them begin....... Now!

Ps amazing how little response this has received in this thread as a positive yet so much attention to the negative on the Neeld situation in other threads.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • 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.
