'The club also signed Lynden Dunn for two years after he finished the season well in 2012 and, in a surprise to many, gave recruit Cameron Pedersen a three-year contract in the off-season.'

Neeld's two worst list management decisions were to re-sign Dunn and to give Pedersen three years.

Lol ... Neeld was a genius

 

Average of approximately 2 / week. Prob an underestimation. Had a good look at him close up yesterday and I am very unimpressed by his speed and more in particular his waist. The guy has put on at least 5kg of fat since arriving at the club. A disgrace only matched by everything else Neeld did. But 3 years you have got to be joking??

Bet you'd be eating those words now.

 

I can't believe people on this thread were calling for Sellar and Davis, smh.

I have already apologised to Cam via the humble pie thread.....


He has a great story though, a bloke who would've been earning bugger all stacking shelves at Bunnings, got bagged out a lot, now everyone loves him, I kinda wish he kicked that winning goal against Essendope just to make it that much sweeter

The great man kick started our season when he drove a DAGGER into the Blues hearts

Just more vindication for the believers of a history of poor development versus the sample that believe we recruited dumb footballers.

Still I can't get over the Toumpas vs Wines debacle. If Roosy and the other coaches can do to Toumpas what they've managed to do with Pedo I'll be very pleased.

I still think that's goal of the year.

I said a few months ago that Pedersen got crap he didn't deserve on here that questioned his worth as a person.

Got called on that comment for some reason. Have a look through this thread and don't just read the terrible jokes - comprehend the the underlying tone - it is of a a group of supporters eating alive a player for having the gall to play for our club.

You can eat your humble pie but we should be showing some self-reflection about the kind of BS we spout about Demons.


Just cruising some old threads. Awesome comment here.

What a difference a year makes eh?

actually its not the difference in date, that's made a difference but a host of things, starting with the punters not turning up that forced action from the top of AFL to get things done.

& my, haven't these changes made a Change to All of Us.

I hardly even post now, as things are happening that make perfect sense, & an air of satisfaction that we are learning, & doing things in smarter ways now, with everyone on the same page, with a leader people want to follow.

Wat a difference... :wub:

Excellent post.

I'll commit to calling people out on pointless abuse. I'm sure people will find someone to hate. I get anxious that Toumpas will have a career-relationship with the fans a lot like the one Stanton had with Essendon supporters.

Really important to avoid doing anything resembling the general culture of Essendon.

I don't think trading Gysberts to get Pedersen was bad, and he has been improving. But signing him up for 3 years was pretty optimistic.

It's done, he is getting better, did well against Koschitzke yesterday, move on.

You sir, are a legend..

It is fantastic to have supporters like you around!

Gysberts just turned 22 and is being developed (properly) on the wing like he should have been with MFC, Pedersen is 26, peak AFL age and has shown as much as he's going to show.

I'm staying on record as saying this will turn out to be a terrible trade.

It was a terrible trade, for North Melbourne.


It was a terrible trade, for North Melbourne.

And hopefully Pedersen drives that point home by kicking the game sealer tomorrow.

I reckon Sellar had all the tools. He would have flourished in the right environment in my opinion.

Lol ... Neeld was a genius

In titan's defense, he then followed up with this:

Look, the point is, right now three years seems two years too many. But stranger things have happened in football; if Zac Dawson can be a regular FB for any team ever, then there is hope for Pedersen. I've seen some talent in him, I just don't know if he can consistently produce it. He'll need to toughen up, muscle up, shed the fat, and work his behind off, but it's doable.


Roos promise to all players........... I'll make you the best player you can possibly be.

I love ROOSY,,,,,,, and Cam

Fair to say we won this trade

Oh man, What a bump.

Sauce with that humble pie?

At least he was inside the boundary which can't be said of the Betts' goal....

According to that article Jack viney is out of contract at the end of this year

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
