What Do You Want To See Next Season

Little Richard
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

I want more development from our first year players (I believe Neeld did do some good recruiting and drafting), I want a midfield that can run out a match competitively, I want a coach that instills belief into not only our players but our whole club and most of all I want to see our club gain the respect it deserves from the football community. No more can we be the club that will easily be kicked about and bullied, we need to be the club others strive to be. I know that won't happen within a season but the next 12 months are very very important for the future of our club.

Excellent post....

The next 12 months need to be huge!

    Aah yes. Pretty Flamingo's i saw at the Astor Theatre with Polyester in '81(my god was it really that long ago!!)

    Polyester was in "smellovision"..with each ticket a scratch & smell card was given. Numbers flashed on the screen when to scratch!!!

    John Waters.....a strange person!!

    I remember that now!!!

    Wasn't there one where the bloke threw up in the toilet????

    Yep! And there was a gas smell when somebody stuck their head in the oven. The crowd reactions were just as funny as the movie.

    My memory of the night is a little foggy as there were discreet cones smoked during the presentation!!!

    Hopefully Misson's estimation of 3 seasons was not another false promise and we start to see some better fitness.

    Without disputing any of the above, I'd like to see the end of massive goal scoring run-ons by the opposition. You know the sort - where we are in a leading position (or, at least, still in touch) and then 30 minutes later we're 10 goals down. And if we can do it without putting a spare man behind the ball, even better.

    Is a 6 win season too much to ask for...

    The ability to tackle consistently and correctly. its so undervalued in the modern game but i think its crucial.

    teaching player how to anticipate the oppositions ball movement. blokes like Watts are still to reactive and always chasing.

    I have most of John Waters' films on DVD; the DVD of Polyester comes complete with the scratch and sniff card. Love it and loved Tab Hunter in the film as well.

    That showing would have been at the Valhalla in Richmond I think it was? That's where I saw my first John Waters films.

    Probably!

    Yeah, perhaps we should set our sights a little lower and aim for a six season win ;-)

    the way I look at it ess,coll,hawth will be stripped of all points next year. for asada violations

    so I think we would like to see no more sunday arvo games

    no Monday games

    no twilight games

    these timeslots should be reserved for the cheats according to the weapon

    maybe we would then be afforded Saturday afternoon games at the gee

    Correct.

    And the Blues Brothers, every Friday night.

    This summer will be his third pre-season so hopefully there will be significant progress.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • 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.
