    Didn't buy into the Neeld philosophy of football but then he was a very smart dude as I remember.

    I hate North Melbourne with a passion, and the fact that they just lost to Brisbane makes me hate them even more. They're crap, obnoxious and STILL manage to beat us regularly.

    Wow does that suck.

    I think we can talk about how bad our drafting/trading has been for ever and a day but really we all know how pathetic we have been and what's the point.

    We can't change it and it's just getting really tiresome.

    Don't get me wrong dd I'm not having a go at u (& I am guilty of it too) but I am over ALL our bad draft decisions.

    It's in the past and can not be changed.

    We r now in 2014 have a new regime in charge and for the first time in a long time I have complete faith in their ability.

    IMO it's time for all of us to move on.

    We are a bottom four side. That is now obvious.

    Yes there has been improvement but in 2012-13 we were sitting outside the AFL Comp.

    Beat the Westies at Etithing and i could change my thinking.

    how was brad scott avoiding the question when asked what he said to Rockcliff. That was crap when he said he was congratulating him and some others.

    Did it during Brown's speech too, his old teammate.

    I hope Rockliff makes it known what was actually said. Brad Scott couldn't be a more detestable bloke.

    This might be a weird question, but does anyone else think that Tippett may be in a bit of trouble (or get points) from the MRP?

    He deliberately stuck his leg/knee out and collected Shaw in the head. How is this any different than if someone chose to hip'n'shoulder but made contact with the oppositions head?

    Pretty much sums it up I think, based on form it's the only conclusion

    I think no surely you have the right to protect yourself from an on coming charge but then again we have the MRP.

    Beat me to it. What exactly was Neeld's philosophy, other than pissing everyone off?

    It would be interesting were he wearing the red n blue - the MRP seem to find it amusing to try new stuff out on us.

    Brad Scott - once a bully always a bully.

    He will never admit (or even get) that he was way out of line. At most he will make a joke of it.

    Well done Tom Rockliff for defusing the situation.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
