Neeld made a lot of mistakes, but this wasn't one of them

The fault with the censorship of words is with the programming. I haven't the foggiest idea why it would censor the word "[censored]" on this site when we have so many of them posting here :lol:

Great post WJ. I fully support filtering out the undesirables and lowlifes who constantly derail threads.

Very articulate!

"Would you knock him down and rob him enquired the leader of the push?


I didn't say you did, but this useless 'Bailey was bad but not as bad as Neeld' is self serving or naive. Maybe both.

I never said you did. I dont why you were grandstanding such a false argument that no has argued. And your efforts to pontificate "eras" does not hide your inability to distinguish the extent of the disaster between the two coaches.

My original assessment applies. No doubt you will try to parrot it to look clever.

Isn't hindsight marvellous. Shame the hindsight experts spent their time cheerleading Whiteboard Wednesday, draft positioning and stillborn youth policies when they should have had a more critical appreciation of what was really going on. Many knew there was a bad smell around but some influential posters were all to wiling to help paper over the cracks.

Spot on.

it's just too depressing to trawl over our recent past, i don't know why you all bother

maybe being an mfc supporter just attracts all the masochists

I always have to have the last bird...

Neeld was a mistake!

Flogged each week!

Lost the players!

Player exodus!

PJs open words ... MFC an impediment on the competition.

Need any more evidence!

Quality!

You know things are getting better when we can have a laugh on ourselves.


I hope everyone understands who is being insulted in that last cartoon.

The only identifiable players are Dunn, Toumpas and Jones. Seems like a random selection. At least they are still standing. Those who fell were too ashamed to fall on their faces obviously.

I hope everyone understands who is being insulted in that last cartoon.

I do WJ

It was us as supporters of the MFC, but revenge will be sweet when it comes in a few seasons time.

This says it all for the 2013 season

I find the comparisons between Neeld and Bailey interesting.

I don't think that a comparison is even possible.

I think that what Neeld wanted to do and what he identified as being wrong was streets ahead of Bailey who seemed happy to let "Same ol same ol" keep rolling on. ( or Bailey was hamstrung by the administration).

However Neeld was spectacularly unsuccessful in implementation and more importantly player buy in. Bailey I think had the players more onside but had very little vision.

Needless to say neither of them will go down as our finest appointments.

I think Bailey had some vision on the playing front but didn't have the steel to take on Schwab and Connolly. If what they are saying about those two is true, he needed to turn around and tell the board 'either they stop what they are doing or I leave'. He was on a hiding to nothing and if he had done that, maybe things would have turned out differently.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
