I doubt it, we have a vanilla flavoured Pres.

 

I might be in the minority, but I like a 'vanilla flavoured' President.  He can do what needs to be done behind the scenes and let others, like PJ, Mahoney and Goody do the talking.  He's done that well so far and worked really well with all areas of the club.  We can't ask for much more than that.

Well he did address the camp situation so you would have found that exciting.

Okay.  I'll bite.  What did he say?

Yes, it was very diplomatically swept under the carpet...

As you would expect or hope.  He played it all down as a non-event, somewhat unconvincingly I thought, and mumbled about there being a camp in January.  The word 'boot' was not mentioned in respect of that so some here will think that means the will be sitting around a camp fire singing kumbyah while toasting marshmallows.

The only thing he mentioned that i found interesting was, that PJ was put in place by the AFL, i always suspected this, but to hear it said from the Prez just shows how bad the club really was in 2013

Oh good. I thought that negative supporters might bring it up after every loss we have.

Guess that won't happen now. ;)

If we get thumped by Jeelong in Round 1 at home, it won’t just be Melbourne Supporters remembering. 

Players had better win early games...

How will we ever cope with other supporters giving us grief?

Yes, and if we had done the bootcamp and lost the first round, no doubt supporters would be blaming the bootcamp for taking too much out of the players.   Damned if they do, damned if they don't.

That's surprising I have heard Board members very adamantly deny that. They claim he was put forward by the AFL and they looked at him along with other candidates and the Board made its own decision in the end. 

The AFL saying you either put PJ in or we cut off your money had absolutely nothing to do with the DEEcision.  :)

Other camp in January is the semi regular Maroochydore one.

Nope , unions been involved and toastings out.
Nothing more dangerous than throwing them at each other providing eye protection is supplied.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
