Bartlett was a Failed Coach at Richmond who knows not what it takes to mold a team into a premiership winning combination!. Ralphy has no "Football" pedigree that I'm aware of!

Opinions are like Bum holes, everyone has one!

Bartlett also held a grudge for years whinging about the fact that he would never return to the club as long as those who sacked him were still there!

A loser's mentality if ever there was one.

If people want to agree with Kev and Ralphy's Gloom and Doom, then that's Fine!

I am tipping the DEES to be the Monster improvers this year!

KB will be at family day shaking his head and swallowing balls.

At least he is still working.

Considering the only radio stations SEN is beating in the ratings are News Radio and ABC Classic FM they might want to revisit their strategy of throwing tripe at the wall and hoping somebody shows an interest. Mind you KB's shift is the only one that went up so WTF do I know.

what KB and Denham have ever said about us has actually been true. If you don't like the "tough word" on some home truths then you are delusional.

We were rubbish, and still pretty much are. Better, yes, but still mostly rubbish.

Suck it up and be a realist.

I had thought the Lions were a basket case not that long ago.

Now I have them firmly in the eight and definitely on the rise.

Things can change quite quickly in this competition - particularly when a club has a CEO like PJ and a coaching staff consisting of the likes of Roos, McCartney and Goodwin.

As to free agency - pick 3 for Frawley was to my mind very adequate compensation.

Carlton and Essendon no longer seem to be the powerhouses they have traditionally been either.

Brisbane have an awesome midfield and that alone will probably get them 8-10 wins for the season, but they have Josh Green, Merrett and Luke Mcquane up forward and they went after Beams instead of going for someone to replace Brown.

Stole the words out of my mouth!

Some seriously delusional supporters on here. You have summed it up best for me.

This was Johnny Ralph not Denham. However I suspect Denham has a special spot for MFC just because he is so critical and knows so much detail about us. Today on SEN he said he was off to lunch with Roos and talked in detail about how we are finally on the right track. He may be so critical because he has some interest.

i was speaking of Denham in the past, as those two (kb and denham) are usually paired. Some people round here like to live in "pretend" land where we are not one of the crappest modern football teams in the world, take the hyperbolic training reports/hype of the previous 5 years for example (there are other examples too).

Have said this many times before, the negativity we have copped from the journos over the years has been harsh, brutal, unrelenting but rarely wrong and quite deserved. Get in the real world, suck it up and accept it and move on, because we have deserved/ still deserve everything we get until we start winning games and making good of field decisions (which I feel we are starting to do).

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
