Exactly.

 

He correctly said Neeld was finished and should be sacked in his first 6-8 rounds as coach, if I remember correctly.  Six months after one or two keyboard warriors, but a long long way before the fence-sitting, hesitant nellies that make up most of us.

Sure. But he also said Adelaide would go through 2017 undefeated

It's not a bad article, but it sure feels like a cut and paste session from in here

    Demonlanders are a funny bunch. We complain when the media is uninformed and then complain when they read whatever they can get their hands on, such as Demonland. David King might over-analyse but at least he's using data to inform his view rather than just guessing.

    Speaking of the VoN.

    Last Saturday night, if I were a neutral supporter I would have been pretty confident Melbourne would run over the top of West Coast. But I'm not a neutral supporter, so while I had a gut feeling we may get up, the VoN told me we wouldn't.

    King's etched himself as the "useless" statistics man, integral component of Fox Footy......yeh right!!!

    For mine King is King of all that's useless and boring re football.

    He's among the last I'd bother with in terms of direction i might take in appreciation of my team.

    I'm obviously different as i take his views as something of a backhander to us. 

    Hes a media flake. He has lots of friends.

    This place has been buzzing the past few weeks. Anyone claiming otherwise is just working off a stereotype.

    Not sure what Melbourne fans King is speaking to. All the ones I know are totally enjoying the ride and we haven't even made the 8 yet.

    Im not sure why the negativity really. He just came out in print and tipped us as possible premiers. hes about the 3rd now and  THAT hasnt happened since ...actually cant remember anytime in my lifetime that has happened. Its hard to believe and feels like Im opening up to a bigger hurt if it all goes terribly south. And its hard not to feel that imagining it wont somehow jinx the team.....like moving seats in the middle of comeback or something. But, god strike e down for sayng so,  it is exciting to contemplate this. 

    Go back 5 weeks to just after the North game and Kingy stated on On The Couch that he thought St Kilda were ahead of the MFC on development and I also seem to remember him stating that we wouldn't make the 8 this year either.

    Personally I'm enjoying the ride, but you also have to be realistic, it's a looong season and a lot could happen yet.  I felt our start to the season was really beter than what we got rewarded for wins and loss wise, due to the Geelong and Richmond games where we had all the accendancy for the majority of the game, but we're cruled by early in game injuries and couldn't finish them out and got over run.

    Strange way to lead off the article, too, have a moan about a non-existent 'problem'

    Moaning about non-existent problems has become rife in the media. That (and straw men) is what deceitful issue-mongers all too often hang their articles on.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
