That is complete and unadulterated tripe.

That in all honesty is the dumbest thing said on this board.

Is there some sort of a competition going on to see who can post the dumbest thing tonight... :rolleyes:

First McLean is not a team player, now Neita is not contributing to the side... have we been attacked by bitter Collingwood supporters, or is there something seriously wrong here?

P.S.- watch the language people.

    End of year trade Travis Johnstone, he is mentally F@cked up.

    Welcome to 2003....

    I'm pretty sure he's cleaned up his act. Just look at him before, during and after games...always offering support and geeing up the players. Looks everybit a leader on the field, a massive contrast to the early days.

    Played some brilliant footy in rounds 8 and 9, after an injury effected start. Was the only player to hold his head up high in our thrashing in Perth - a sign of maturity and leadership.

    Very harsh call that IMO.

    Mate, doesnt incosistent proformances show you that he is mentally soft. I also have heard from reliable sources he is a big drinker and gambler...I honestly hope I am right. He has all the potenitial in the world, but he just does not put in the hard yards IMO. You are entiteled to you opinion.

    I have also heard that he likes women too! :o

    Honestly, your comments on TJ are some of the most derogatory and uninformed rubbish you would read on a supporter site. If you feel you have further comments like that about TJ or any other player, I suggest you keep it to yourself and not post it. ;)

    trapper had 9 possessions on monday before half time when he did his hammy.

    neitz has been a better captain in the last few weeks than he has been at any other time

    Those people out ther who want to give Neale another chance need to go to another club. We have given this man too many chances now. He should have been sacked 3 yrs ago. David Neitz is going down each year and should retire not what I heard on Monday that he wants to give it another year, NO DAVID NO.

    We need new leadership on the field and off. Our current committee needs a great shake up and should be seen more. Paul Gardiner needs to look for another job as all his promises he made when he took over have gone down the drain. We need an exciting new President like McGuire, Pratt etc. Someone who has get up and go.

    The problem with MFC is we have too many old foggies who are scared to change. Lets go ahead and win

    You joined up yesterday, quote yourself, bag the coach, absurdly snipe at the captain, call for the ditching of the board, and insist we find an 'Eddie McGuire' to take over.

    How ya doin, Joffa?

    You are to stupid to understand what a business is all about. Think before you put me down. I want this club to get on not wait another 10 years before we can win a flag. We will never win a flag under our present coach.Don't give him another year we have given him to many chances. Let us find a coach who can go into the futre with MFC.

    Out of curiousity I wonder what a package of Travis and Brad Miller and a middle position first round draft pick could land us for next year? That might be enough to pull a top 25 player (in the comp) should he wish to play for melbourne/retun to Victoria.

    Oh dear. To me, you look pretty silly right now.

    I notionally support retaining Daniher unless a stand-out coach becomes available, and I am comfortable with retaining a a stable board which has set itself ambitious goals and appears to be moving well towards them while paying down millions of dollars of debt in just a few years. I'm not keen on a return to board instability in itself, either. We've all seen that and it's just not helpful.

    Call me risk-averse if you like, but please don't tell me I'm too stupid to understand business.

    I'd be interested in any particular criticisms you (and everyone else) have of Daniher. I'm not fighting from his corner or anything - his lack of initiative in that horrid run to finish 2003 left a permanent dent in my patience. But I recognise he has the respect of the players, and I can also see that we're really not far off being a powerhouse team. Some injury luck and some corrections to particular problems (eg Bruce's kicking) and we would be a truly potent force.

    I just don't think we're in a situation which calls for major disruptions.

    What we must look at is MFC is a business and what each person in the business is putting in. Over the last few years David is putting in less and less. Just look at his stats.

    ur a tool mate! stats dont mean anything brother its the 1%s he does.. like being that big forward target and presenting and crashing into players and kicking goals for us! and one dam good thing he does the best is LEADERSHIP! did u watch the Collingwood game when he stuffed his knee up and we all thought he was gone but came back with so much courage and showed what a true leader he is!

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
