What the hell was the club doing during those years?!

Stuffing up our list.

 

I can only imagine that the players' attitude must have been unprofessional and disrespectful of the club to evoke such a response

Have you played much footy? I always found that fire and brimstone gets better results than hugs and kisses

Yes I have played footy, and played it hard and tough without resorting to the biff, as Carey said on Talking Footy, backing into a pack is tough, not hitting or grabbing someone, nobody knows whether the story about Viney and Martin is true, would be surprised the Players Association wouldn't make a stink about Viney still being in the industry if it was correct,

This topic is now degenerating into the usual bagging, move on, the Club is going forward

well eff him and anyone else that has/is contributing to our pizzweak culture - a culture that has us gone 50 years without success. I hope Viney gets them all by the throat and that they are sent packing if they don't walk the line

this culture has crept in after smithy left, & has ebbed & flowed thru peaks & troffs since. and we've never had a depth a talent & ethos of elite hard work, accept under Barrassi/Jordan - Northey eras. then slack re-entered again.

those damn slippers must be banned from around the club. AFL footy is a sleeves up, get into the muck job, which involves loss of blood, & plenty of bruises, given & taken. & injuries aplenty.

we've had too many who take, but don't give enough over the years.

this culture infects most all kids who don the jumper. Can't blame the kids, its the leaders on & off the field, who hold the standards, & therefore allow a culture to grow.

I have good mail that we will only be receiving mail twice a week . So I think that will make it the pretty average mail.

Quote your source. This kind of outlandish statement starts wars. If you're not prepared to name names then retract immediately!

I would have thought 3 times a week average and twice below average?

I say bring back carrier pigeons.

you know exactly where I heard it - Judd's grandmother

 

this was such a good thread topic, which could have had really good info. in it.

Oh well, back to doing what we do best; you think Watts or Toumpas will make it?JimSigh.gif

It's a hard one Song. I just wish we had picked that other bloke, Wines. Has that been mentioned yet?

In Roos I trust. Previous years of stuffed drafts will evaporate into the ether I am sure. She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes.


I hope those looking at WC - A Gaff have reconsidered. Is the definition of a soft down hill skier. Had 1 tackle last week in the wet when Pridis had 18. IMO does not play the style of football Roosy want's.

don't know, stats can lie. especially if a player wants Out.

I would be surprised if we went there, we certainly wouldn't offer a high pick for him. Stretch will be a better version anyway.

Wouldn’t use a high pick, but if he’s coming out of contract, I’d certainly gauge interest. There’s always the threat of the PSD if we lured him home. We might be able to bargain the Eagles down to a second round pick in this scenario.

Whilst he hasn’t kicked on from a promising start at West Coast, he’d still be a good addition to our midfield group. He gut runs to find the ball on the outside and uses it neatly.

Wouldn't spend a 2nd round pick 'Chaser', we need to use some of these now but depending where we finish on the ladder that PSD pick could be a winner. The AFL may not like how we use it but we need to play hard particularly if they don't come good with a PP.

I have it on good Authority that Scott Lycett has verbally agreed to terms with port Adelaide and much to the disappointment of the eagles the two clubs are trying to work out a deal, this probably hurts our chances of being able to snare Callum Sinclair if we were looking at him

Callum just signed a 2 year deal with the Eagles last week so is probably off the table anyway.

How is Jack Hanath going at Freo?

Just re-signed unfortunately, kid was very upset when he got picked by Freo and didn't get to become a demon

SPR im not trying to question your sources but you seem to be in the know with alot in the AFL which is alright I guess but your strike right is pretty..

If West Coast knew he had already verbally agreed to Port Power he wouldn't have been picked to play this weekend.

It's one of those things Dazzle, I work in fitness, and know a lot of the AFL fitness guys so I hear things that way, but it's amazing how quickly things backflip on you, I am pretty happy to just say what I hear when I hear them based on the assumption nothing will change, this is coming from a family member of Scott though so i'd say it's going to happen unless WCE block it

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
