Questions about Bailey


shedemon007

Recommended Posts

I've been lucky, cause I moved away from the home of Aussie Rules last year & am now in the deep north where rugby rules.

Unfortunately, I subscribed to payTV before I realised that this season was going to be not at all worth watching. The MFC have some very talented players in their midst so why are the losses constant, so bad & things are just not happening.

This coach is a problem and as for all of those out there who say "we're rebuilding", etc, etc. I can't remember a team in rebuilding mode who have fared so poorly with a list of players with skill that this mob have shown. The MFC is not Carlton who have perpetually recruited badly, this is a club who made great players out of low draft picks.

What has this guy done to these players???????????????????????????

I have NEVER seen such a string of losses from this group - there is no forward line, no one to kick things to, they're fumbling all over the place. Also, I've never been so angry about watching these games, something is very clearly wrong here. And, for all you Daniher bashers, at least with Neal the team was skillful & they actually won some games with him, not constant losses of 50+ points.

Where does the problem lie - with Dean Bailey or with Paul Gardner or both? Who selected this guy? Why did the MFC in their 150th year decide to go with such a drop kick?

I'm not a happy camper and the thought of spending precious time in Melbourne when I come home to visit watching this rubbish means although I have my membership and my seat, that it's not going to happen. I'll do something positive with my time, visit an art gallery, certainly not the MCG - a place with many happy memories.

Tell that to the great executives in the MFC.

Shedemon - who is seriously angry about this coach

I agree to the extent that its as if the players have hardly played the game before. What has stripped some pretty handy players of virtually all their skills and abilities?

Well 35 games ago it was Round 18 and we were on top of the ladder.... How times have changed.

Yeah, it has, the players are 2 years older and still weak at the contest and the man, it took 18 rounds for our opponents to find out, what happened after round 18???

Our poor start comes from one thing. LACK OF LEADERSHIP. Who gets the blame? Everyone at the club is to blame, We need to breed out the [censored], and add some heart into this footy club. The coach can be blamed for some of the leadership, but on match day, the players on the ground need to lead this club to war, the coach can only do so much.

I think Bails could be a good leader, and hopefully his leadership will rub off on the playing group.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
