Recommended Posts

In summary:

4 losses at an average of 37 points.

Injuries to McLean, Neitz, Robbo, TJ, Moloney, Rivers, Green, Wheatley, Jones and Whelan.

Pathetic and inept performances from the players.

Pathetic and inept performance from the coach.

Pathetic and inept performances from the president (thinks Daniher should coach to 2016)

Pathetic and inept performances from the fans (16,000 to an MCG home game)

Apart from that the seasons travelling quite well :huh:

Well 'demondomination', we started playing the Saints in the first match of the season, with David Neitz kicking the first goal of the season. At least we have enjoyed the first 30 minutes with the Dees holding a comfortable 2 goal lead at quarter time. Everything seemed to be going to plan. We seemed to have the opposition under control. After this glorious half hour everything has been turned upside down what with massive injury problems, no confidence and poor form. We will improve but we don't know just when this will occur. Stay in the country , maybe the boys have just missed you.

In all honesty none of us have any idea what Gardner or the board are saying behind closed doors. Part of his job as President is to provide a united front, and as long as Neale's in the position of Senior Coach, on the outside he'll always (appear to) have the support of the board.

Do you really think Paul's going to turn around and say "I reckon Neale's doing a shit job and I doubt he'll be the coach in 2008" ?

Not sure why you're wasting your time, or why I am wasting mine...

Clearly Gardner should have sacked Daniher on The Footy Show last Thursday. He is a crap president for not having done that already. :rolleyes:

well lets see whats happened whilst you were away, brad miller cant mark so he got a glove but then when he does mark he seems to think hes playing rugby and handballs to a player behind him. then theres nathan carroll who lets his opponent get way ahead of him when the ball is kicked his way therefore nathan has no chance of even trying getting anywhere near the ball or his opponent who kicks goal after goal. then theres all these stupid hand balls all over the backline which of course leads to the other team getting annoyed therefore getting their hands onto the ball and again kicking goals, and then theres neal daniher who lets the team get away with this crap sort of play, really you havent missed out on much its been like this all season.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well …

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
