Hearing (second hand) that Jon Anderson on 3AW was speaking this morning about some Melb player tweets that were feeding through. It seemed clear the players are not unhappy.

I didn't hear it so can anyone confirm what Ando said or what player tweets have been made about MN??

    I follow most of them, it is buillshit, Twitter is quiet, assume they meant Moloney, a current player would not tweet that anyway

    Unless they have since deleted their tweets I cannot find one tweet relating to the sacking of Mark Neeld by a current Melbourne player. Can anyone provide a link?

    Despite Fifty-5 jumping down his throat, I think Satyriconathome is spot on... it's extremely unlikely any current member of the playing group would be tweeting such things.

    Cam Pedersen tweeted a nice farewell tweet the other day.

    (Nb. when I say "nice", I mean that it was a normal "thank you and good luck" message - nothing sinister).

    Saty, I'm sure we'd all appreciate a training report if you manage to make it to the next open session. Cant see Craig changing things too drastically however im sure you'd be able to chat to a few of the guys and get a feel for the mood around the group?

    I was actually thinking about going Friday, although I notice in another post it is 3pm today, depends on whether I post or not, the paranoia displayed by some posters is becoming tiresome.

    Just quietly, I reckon Pedo, Burns, Rodan and Gillies would all be a bit upset / nervous about Neeld's departure.

    Don't worry about them... I get the feeling some of those posters are just pining for the good old days of IRC chatrooms where they could go in and flame away to their hearts content and get real time responses or news groups like Aus.politics... now THOSE were the days :-)

    Gillies is the only one on a 1 year contract isn't he?

    To get rid of the other players we would have to trade or pay out. Can't see the former being much chance, and the latter is probably not realistic, so brace yourself!

    not pedo - he was signed for three years!!

    And from that group I reckon he's got the least to worry about. His major concern will be the contract renegotiations after those 3 years. Pretty hard for him et al to play some cards with no game time.

    dead right saty, in this current situation apart from miss moloney at brizzy no dee player would be that silly and disrespectfull

    the panic merchant patties on this site would like for anything to pin on MN at the moment and for the next 2 years

    some posters on this site would be panicked by thier own shadow

    I was a more enthusiastic Neeld supporter than most here but 3 year contracts to Pederson, Jamar and Jordie did make me wonder. Bizarre

    Jon Anderson stated at 6.25 that he would name names at 7.25. I missed it - does anyone know if he did?

  • Quote

    3AW are promoting what he said on twitter and their website but I haven't seen any specific names mentioned.

    I like Jon Anderson but that's pretty gutless not to name names. If current players have tweeted something then it's fair game to be reported. If he's not willing to name names I'd suggest that means he's "interpreted" the content of a couple of tweets to be in reference to Neeld

    Can only think it is Moloney, but he hasn't added to his wonderful contribution the other day, it would be career suicide for a player to do it, sometimes a joke tweet is sent out when they leave their phones unlocked, but doubt that as well, can only think the 'journalist' is looking at bogus accounts, there are a couple of Col Sylvia and Jesse Hogan floating around

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
