Wayne Carey: Dees Not a United Team


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Carey is pretty tight with J Hogan, I hope he hasn't got mail from him, it's quite possible it's true we are not united. 

Anyway,  I was getting tired of all the tyre pumping going round the media,  a little more negative commentary just might unite them ironically.

Carey doesn’t go quite as hard as the headline suggests, but there’s some validity in what he says.  

He’s essentially saying what most of us are saying, and that is until we start winning, people are going to be bring up the camp.

Do we need a thread for every opinion?

No we don't. 

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the media and social media, it will continue to happen. Any mug can put anything out there, and there will be a reaction. A bit like this site and indeed this thread. 

Everyone has an opinion or thinks they are entitled to express it, even though the person may be ignorant, lacks knowledge or is plain wrong. That's virtually the entire footy media mob. 

As for Wayne Carey, please......

Agree. Let the media call us wimps and see if we answer as a united team on the ground.

Dees not united, is that right Wayne?

Wait, are you the guy that slept with his best mate's missus and had to quit his club?

But the Roos were united, in their anger at Wayne.

When this season starts and continues week by week to its ultimate end - where the Demons are in the top one quarter of the premiership ladder - prior to the finals, of course, we will have to count all of the media's naysayers who got it so terribly wrong at this pre-season time of the year.

Carey, his mate, Robbo, and many others will be singing from a different song sheet by that time and still expecting the general public to recognise their 'insight' and 'sophisticated declarations' ... and their inherent right to sit on the bandwagon as far as the Demons are concerned.

It is thought that these actions of his were representative of his poor and vainly limited understanding of the meaning of 'united'.

More 'journalism' clickbait

"Look at me! Look at me!"

There's more to it than just clickbait. Carey's statement is not even clickbait as it's in a 15 minute video where only a tiny portion is about the Dees game. I find his total lack of analysis of the game and his tip boiling down to an article he read in the paper about an event that he probably doesn't have all the facts about to be the problem here.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
