Excuses

Featured Replies

A loss to GWS. One where the team 'brought intensity and effort' but failed to execute, apparently.

The year 2013 is one of excuses. No accountability. Blame everyone and everything.

If you were given the money these guys are getting and were as bad, you would be terminated. And half the list should be.

Anyway - the result on Saturday will be the basis for more 'excuses':

For the team to lose the rest, without even a whimper. Its now OK to be the worst team in the comp.

For supporters to not go to another game

For members to officially decide that enough is enough, and to not renew next year.

For sponsors to decide we are not worth the effort

For free agents to say 'No thanks'

TIme for this rabble to stop making excuses and start being accountable. Time to be honest and communicate clearly. Time to cut out the cancer that seems to sit at the heart of the club, making it such a perennial underachiever.

We have very little of the season left. Please don't make excuses. Try something different. For god's sake, show something - that you will fight and are worth fighting for.

 

Excuses can get stuffed from my POV. Until this club and players show some ticker like EVERY OTHER AFL club does. I will not attend as life is too short to waste time.

I will buy a full membership for 2014 because i wish to support Peter Jackson in the monumental task ahead of him.

He must employ and trust people who have a similiar strength of character he shows. PJ please do not trade Watts for Yarran. Yarran is a worse soft [censored] than Watts.

Watts can be saved with the right coaches

Another Watts thread?

No. Just a sentence. Important though.

I watched Yarran last night. He is not a player we need. We already have had Col for 10 seasons.

Apparently a horrible virus went through the club on Thursday night. 8 blokes were spewing before the game.

How's that?

More supporters were spewing after the Game!

No more excuses please. Let's see some action. The season is dead and buried. We need to see some positive moves from the club soon to generate even the slimmest ray of hope for 2014. Without that, membership, sponsorship and other corporate support will hit an all time low. At this point, you can understand players resisting signing. We have no president, coach and head of football. And the one person who handles himself with any sense of professionalism, Peter Jackson is a temporary appointment. A complete and utter mess.

But the weather was bad and the opposition played too hard for us.

You can't expect the MFC to win as it not in the players contract to play under such conditions.

 

We're crap. Is that an excuse or a reason? I can no longer tell the difference after all these years on Demonland.

Excuses are reasons that no-one asked you to give them.

"Why are you fat?"

"I can't control myself around food."

That's a reason.

"Don't judge me because I'm fat. I just can't control myself around food."

That's an excuse.

OMG even our Admins have given up

    From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
