Anyone out there capable of coming to this club and changing this?

I sadly agree, i don't think any one or two people could make a difference, we basically need to strip this club back to it's DNA and re-write the entire code, it's a painful reality for the supporters.

Yep.

More great input.

Thanks.

Any other pearls of wisdom you want to drop?

In the great words of Mark Fine: "I predict you will never own a lawnmower outright."


A recruiter with half a brain for starters.

That side of things seems abit better now, we did alright out of last years draft, the mature players like Pedo and co were an absolute joke but i can't see our next coach making the same mistakes.

Development is still a concern, we can't afford to waste any more high picks or we're never going to get off the bottom.

Ollie Wines.

We need midfield GRUNT and we pass on Ollie Wines.

And I know it has to do with list managment, but we let Moloney go when he is a seasoned midfielder and we need all the help we can get. We replace him with Rodan. Yeah we're doing alright aren't we?

It doesn't take a genius - all you need is a knife and a wrist and you can watch all the bad DNA flow out.

This is followed by a simple process called the draft.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
