Please stop.

Stop what? Presenting stories about the Dees for discussion on a Demons discussion website?

Also says that Joel Selwood as Captain of the cats would not have allowed that camp to be cancelled. Extrapolate from that what you like.

When this story first appeared many said it was a flash in the pan.

At present it remains the biggest story of the 2018 season and it isn't going anywhere until we win 5 or 6 straight or some other fiasco comes along

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.

I made a separate thread for this to highlight the lazy journalism here. Carey uses this as the sole reason we'll lose rather than actually analyse the teams and the game.

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.

See my post above. I thought it warranted it. I could be wrong.

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.

Is that something you know, or are you speculating?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
