Interesting that the ‘Misson effect’ is spreading.  Ex-Demons Watts, Hogan and Dom Tyson all out for stints at their respective clubs.  Tyson now TBC with a calf.

    How is he responsible for Watts’ broken leg? Can we also blame him for Scully’s miraculous recovery?

    This is stupid. Now we are just looking for reason to sink the boots into Misso.

    Watts broke his leg in an accidental tackle? Whats that got to do with this stupid 'The Mission effect'.

    Im counting down the days until he is out of the club, 48 days and counting.

    I think many inside the club would be too.

    Portmanteau? Massaged and cured? methinks not.

    How do you know the exact day? Surely he announced it as 4-6 weeks....

    ;)

    Blame, of course, is one of the five stages of grief. Most Demonlanders have yet to move on to acceptance and hope stage.

    With Melbourne's injury list being primarily made up of contact injuries, I wonder if the blame should be placed on the shoulders of Goodwin and his chaos ball game plan?

    Will that make us feel better?

    I think most of them would have said to Joel Smith in the pre-season game, take the rest of the game off son.

     

    That puts them in the short-list I reckon.

    I actually find it funny that this is on linked-in. I thought these jobs are just filled through connections in the industry.

    Yeah right. The one guy who kept his job in the FD under 3 different regimes (Neeld, Roos, Goodwin), and is leaving under his own volition to go overseas.

    Worth noting that while Misson has been head-hunted a couple of times over a career in the AFL that goes back to 2001, he has never been sacked or "moved on".

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
