I was hoping Tomorrow nights show was all about Season 2021 and The GF. 

I don’t want to go back to 2013, it’s already been thrashed out

Careers were killed, lives were lost

We were being run like a circus 

Disappointed all that sh.it is going to be raised again

Agreed, I hope more is made of the fact that we completely dominated the season and finals series.

    Spot on. And I also find it disappointing that people are still sticking the knives into Neeld. Sure, he wasn't a good coach, and was duly sacked, but the club was embroiled in a 6 month "tanking investigation/witch hunt" during his tenure. Wouldn't have been easy for a first time coach.

    I won't be watching.

    Sorry, I meant "thread" not "post". I actually agree with SWYL. 

    There is a post referring to Neeld's next step being Centrelink. I find this in poor taste regardless of what you think of his coaching ability. Our problems started before Neeld arrived, and didn't end till Goody started. I'm not interested in revisiting anything that happened in between.

    To tell the story properly you need to give the context to it.

    I love the 'redemption' tale and the whole Norm Smith Curse stuff, it makes for a fascinating back story to our incredible premiership. Much more so than just 'the Dees won heaps of games and then won the flag'...

    He’s your classic Dees supporter that would prefer to ingratiate himself with supporters of other teams by talking down MFC players, chances, and supporters.

    There’s a few of those sorry people about, unfortunately.

    Tom's the classic " notice me please, I would like to say something here , but you people just won't ( stammer) let me".

    [censored] that, it’s all been done. 
    i want to know how the lead up to the GF was handled in Perth

    2 weeks between Preliminary and GF, never happened before 

    57 years between glory. 
    i certainly don’t need reminding how bad the place was 10 years ago

    Wilson wrote all that in the aged…

    I'm sure you'll get a bit of everything mate.

    How about you wait for the complaining until you've actually watched it?

    Just an idea.

    It’s on Fox, so i will have to find a torrent somewhere 

    Why do you want to see regurgitated interviews from 2013?

    I want a GF documentary

    Does this qualify for the 'Jack Viney made me cry' thread?

    It’ll be on Kayo too. 
    Every GF documentary goes into the history of the club. We just have a lot more history than most. 
    I don’t see a problem with talking about the complete history behind the flag.

    Tom Morris who on the Fox Footy podcast after the grand final thought that Salem would never be more than a soft outside flanker (or words to that effect).

    Salem was never that and I can’t stand Morris.

    Strange comment!! Salem might play that outside HBF roll but he is one my favourite players because his toughness! How many times has he been targeted and just gets back up as though nothing happened.

    But that history has been done to death, over an over. I don’t want to be reminded of Schwab
    Would be much preferred to concentrate on The year of Covid and how we were able to beat the system

    @Hannibal Inc. you have a problem with the above? 

    It's about context.

    Crying in certain scenarios is fine, but I'm not wanting to run out next to a guy who cries in the rooms after a loss.  I know all the arguments that support such emotions, such as how much losing obviously means to that person, etc., but it's not what I want to see in a teammate of mine after a loss, especially in round 2.  It's pathetic.

    • 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.
