    General Kurts who is up river, in the highlands? "the horror" is that who we are talking of?

    I intend to be around these forums for a while, and I ain't going to lie. It's all done. Brendan is coming to the Dees, and I won't have egg on my face.

    Not quite so apocalyptic Earl. I assume it's Kurt Cobain.

    HaHa, my title is false, even I know :(

    Was joshing Kurt. Happy to take you at your word.

    I'd be more likely to believe this news if it was announced as a riddle.

    Or a fish pun.

    Like your confidence Kurt.

    I can tell you now this source is quoted from Brendan McCartney himself.

    He is going to the Dees on Monday. He wrote his own contract. He is VERY happy and sounds like he may even be our next senior coach in waiting. His role won't be much next year.

    He rejected Essendon senior gig because of the scandal.

    He built a bonfire with all his doggies stuff, had a party and burnt it cos he was treated like crap there.

    Probably the only scoop I'll ever have so passing it on to fellow Demonlanders :)

    I'm hardly a source of information either, but I was told at about the same time as the above post, very reliably, that Mc Cartney will be announced on Monday as our dev coach. it was from his work with Goodwin at essendon, that made him decide to come to the dees- he really rates him. Hird wanted him, but was rejected them for obvious reasons.

    So how is McCartney such a good development coach if the Bulldogs players disliked him enough to get him sacked? How does that work? I'm honestly asking.

    sounds like some over Egostatistical's got themselves in a lather

    You reckon? Huge chance the news got it from here. Typical case of us feeding our own rumour back to ourselves.

    Good point Nasher. Can you make up a mini avatar for said Demonland villains?

    It's how Barrett claims credibility on a story, he'll write a story in the HS and then go on AFL.com.au and say, "the Herald Sun is reporting....." as if it's someone else backing up his claim!

    What's that thing on his nose?

    Maybe he's Kurt Vonnegut? After all, "I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different."

  • Quote

    Wow.

    I thought to myself "McCartney sacked? Stupid bulldogs. If only we could bring in for a development role, but we'd never have the room or the money..."

    Very pleased with this development.

    As Dwayne Hoover said: "It's all life until you're dead."

    good now he can tell us how to stop Libba when we play the dogs next.

    We already know. Play Viney on him.

    McCartney was a failure at the Bulldogs, hated by all. How is this a good get?

    Just sounds like another reject at Melbourne, we would be just as well off going for Neeld as a development coach.

    10 years at Geelong.

    I think Footscray failed McCartney.

    Nah he's a gun coach with a winning % of 30 he will go down as one of the great coaches of the modern era.

    The discontent at the Bulldogs all year was just a myth.

    Undoubtedly the greatest coach we have had since Norm Smith.

    • 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.
