Supposedly was one who tried to round up players to ignore any suggestions of tanking.....

just sayin

Good on him in that case.

But I'd agree with the quoted sentiment in regards to on-field leadership.

Always seemed more focused on trying to niggle the opposition.

You were bullied at school weren't you?

Not properly- there is still an heir of confidence that needs crushing.

Because he looks like Salem or because he wore number 3?

They should have got Clint Bizzell to present it!

Ahh because Garry Lyon was a former Melbourne champion player that wore number 3.. *facepalm*

A real leader would've dug his heels in and forced a change in culture. He's a pathetic sell-out.

Lets hope a rival company doesn't offer you twice your worth and double the normal contract as I am sure you would stay put.

Yes we were a rabble but $6m over 6 years! FFS let it go. He is gone.

This comment is why we are the laughing stock of the AFL.

Now you do understand that it is joke between a couple of guys who take the Mickey out of each other don't you Sambo06?

But how a crass joke makes us the laughing stock of the AFL I am not sure.

I think quite a few management people and a lot of poor players have achieved that result.

Don't believe a poor joke by Bbo has much to do with it.

I have to say I was impressed with his build on the weekend. For months I've heard that he was slightly built and would take a long time to get his body up to scratch. He looks a lot bigger than I expected. Add to that that his skills appear to be every bit as good as advertised and he's a lot harder at the ball than expected and I'm pretty damn happy.

I did think he would be knocked around a bit easier, he appeared relatively sturdy eh

All this time I thought it was a perpetually crap footy side, inept management, poor crowd numbers..

And all along, it was BBO's jokes that made us a laughing stock. How did I not see it before?

Yes I blame him

I look at the situation in the Ukraine and I can't help but think that if he had a bit more intestinal fortitude there wouldn't be a problem. Don't get me started on the deficit.

Is there any thing he is not involved in?

Being buggered senseless makes a man of you!!

Incorrect Sambo06 - we have been the laughing stock of the AFL long long before 29 Apr 2014 - 7:17 PM, which is when Bbo posted his comment, so clearly that comment is NOT why we are the laughing stock.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
