Just found time to watch it. Quite fascinating as you say. Unfortunately I also was thinking they might as well be talking about us half the time.

At times you have to wonder if we haven't been just as reactionary.. Hopefully we are now moving into a proactive period of our history....hopefully.

the reationary is because the demon is arousing from slumber.

but the danger of that is we become like the tigers did. we're not giving the people with the vision a chance to create that. the trust is thin on the ground around the red & blue.

we had a bad culture & unfortunately made it worse after 2007.

poor decisions about how things were manged, & then handled, caused a lot of heartache, which inturn brought on a lot of ill will & bitterness.

but the culture issues are what we've had perennially.

    The same mistakes will only remain if we continue to employ old Demons.

    Now is not the time for that.

    The club needs a complete "Blood Transfusion" right now.

    It is the only way we can regroup and go forward.

    That includes past players in coaching roles at the mo.

    It is too early..

    Only people with proven good results need apply for any FD / Admin positions.

    Any thing less will see us remain anchored to the bottom.

    Precisely. There are no young Demons who have climbed to the top.

    They need to learn from those who have....not be in charge.

    • 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.
