The Misson effect

Featured Replies

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.

 

I heard Harley Bennell had a coffee with Misson 5 years ago too

the man's effect cannot be underestimated!

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'.

Pretty sure the OP is joking guys.

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. 

Massacred our list.

Portmanteau? Massaged and cured? methinks not.

How many budding fitness experts from Demonland have applied I wonder

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.

Apologies, I thought the sarcasm would be obvious....

No need. My sarcasm switch was obviously switched off this morning! 

The effect is real. Half our bloody players go missin’ every week!

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".

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Carlton

    The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
