Can our previous list mgrs, recruiters & others be brought before the courts for negligence & duty of care for the absolute abysmal way of how they could overlook so much great talent along with our many early draft picks which have failed!

The Roos philosophy: trading and list building
Demonsone replied to P-man's topic in Melbourne Demons
Why are we concerned of losing players....apart from the top 7-8 b&f & our recent early picks, the rest should be delisted or traded! -
Different eras ... Free agency has changed it all.... Ultimately our club over the last 7yrs created a crap environment & players want to taste success... it's the club responsibility to create an environment were by players will want to stay .....Clark will never be right regardless of the club he plays for...
-
Do you blame Scully......with the tanking issues etc..... Junior Mac was treated poorly..... Our clubs history of handling players & culture is pathetic.....
-
Another failed top 20 pick .... How many is that since 2007??? Surely our past recruiters & development people should never be allowed to work in another afl club ever again.... wtf disgrace!

What's 1 draft pick we have nailed in the past 10 years?
Demonsone replied to The Stigga's topic in Melbourne Demons
Question should be how many have we F up! -
I'm all for Him getting his health issues in order.... But it's a kick in the guts for the MFC who gave up a pick to get him over & supported him during his tough times.... I think he needs to repay some faith to the MFC... Compensation from the AFL is in order if this happens!

Either all gone to other clubs...... Or delisted! -
Great news For Jones... Shows his commitment & hard work! Good to see Roosy & co players they brought into the team Tyson 2nd & Vince 3rd, Cross 5th Dunn 4th re invented his career!
-
Very polished & strong foundations going forward with succession planning for both CEO & coach ... 1st time in history for the MFC.... Very honest assessment of past list mgt & makes a great point on free agency & raiding of talent from top clubs... Reality of it all is another rebuild of the list....
-
Not currently worth his price tag.... But no doubt will perform well in a top 4 team........ Free agency hey....this competition is turning into a EPl were only 4-6 teams will win flags as they will raid the best players.... I guess that's the even competition the Afl are talking about!
-
Read the vfl player reviews..... Sums up our list..... A lot of these guys have been in the system for 3+ yrs are struggling.....
-
Can't see Bomber waiting 2 years to take over....... What would he do ... Can't fit him in the coaches box..... 2 different Coaches... Would be great to have him in 2017 ... But I'd say his hunger for coaching may be gone by then...

Listen to what Roosy said.... The Gap between Playing @ afl std vs U18 is so huge! The mental toughness required & development to play at this std is huge & for them to be guns is another huge step! Only clubs that have great environments with development & culture seem to always get kids turning into good afl players... Hence Hawks , cats & swans you see young players doing so well... So please take a step back & ask is our club creating the environment for the young talent to develop???
-
Simply don't have the cattle....... Need to make crucial choices with our picks & get more class into our midfield to help Tyson, jones, Vince etc Hope that Hogan is ok in 2015....... Another fwd....
-
Honestly... The kid is in his 1st season & some of the posts wanting the kid to be a ball magnet match winner etc... FFS ! Young picks take 2-4 yrs to develop & play @ the highest level... It's the club responsibility to create an environment of development & culture to ensure these kids can be developed.... Which our club has been terrible at! Just ridiculous comments.... These questions need to be aimed @ seasoned players.... Salem has shown class & will become a great player under the correct environment!
-
Another rebuild is needed....we just simply dont have class... Premiership lists have 6-9 guns , strong culture, leadership. Roos will need to build the list & unfortunately want see the fruits of his labour...
-
Yes Roosy is accountable for the teams performance.....but ffs he inherited a train wreck, damaged goods & clearly players who are not afl standard... Look @ the players he brought in Tyson, salem, vince all doing well... Dunn playing great.... When will the players take responsibility for their pathetic efforts??? Im confident Roos & co will clear the decks & find, develop the right players! Judge him by 2016

Melbourne , a team waiting to be beaten - Paul Roos
Demonsone replied to beelzebub's topic in Melbourne Demons
Our list reflects the diabolical recruiting,culture & development which occurred since 08.... Roos will flush out the ones which a clearly not afl standard & the culture will change... -
Just makes your wonder are our players skills not to afl standard or they simply can't play at the intensity that's required for afl level???
-
Pathetic!!!!!! WTF is wrong with these players???? Roos commits till 2016 & yet these players cannot commit by turning up to compete & effort at AFL level! These would be non negotiable by Roos & should drop/ sack & turn over the list until he gets the right players! Don't want hear any excuses by members etc... Wasn't expecting finals but it seems players going thru the motions! Watts FFS grow some [censored] balls & compete ... No hunger... Needs to be dropped until season end to show if he wants to play afl anymore! Members have had enough.....
-
What a crap interview ... Focused 90% on his coaching future & Caro trying to get a headline on a crap dinner with afl ceo FFS how about talking about player development & what's changed culture, development coaches... What's needed to play finals footy!
-
Bottom line we lost.... We have dumb footballers who can't play 100%
-
Gotta question the decision making late in the last qtr when we were leading.... Wtf was Dawes kicking to??? The out on the full by Grimes I believe! And yes umpiring disgraceful! jones gets tackled & handballs & gets dropping the ball! How many times are players tackled & ball drops out & it's play on!

Memo Peter Jackson - Do something about this list
Demonsone replied to Soidee's topic in Melbourne Demons
Exactly ... Remember what the last CEO did????? This is why our list & culture was screwed! Jackson has got the right people in place for the long term success... As frustrating as it is ... It's the list Roos inherited & his team will sort out who can stay & be developed & get the right players in.... Will take more than 1 season to fix a 6yr train wreck!
