    Actually the assumptions belong to the bashers and apologists, not me. You however are stating absolute fact - we suck. (for the moment ....)
  2. Tricky
    Not that hard to understand really, depending on your viewpoint. With a couple of assumptions: Neeld is a really, really crap coach The replacement coach is better than really, really crap I can see how the "Neeld bashers" would see benefit in sooner rather than later. The "Neeld apologists" on the other hand would probably not concede the given assumptions.

    Trengove suffered a stress fracture in his foot on the eve of the club's pre-season training camp in Darwin in December. Someone should tell Leigh.

    Source? In any case, it's the effectiveness of the tackle that is important. I'll re-watch the first quarter if you promise I'm not going to see 3 token one-handers...
  5. Tricky
    Was thinking that myself...shudder.
  6. Tricky
    Think you're in the wrong forum. Keep the quality posts coming.

    This also worries me - and ZERO tackles today. I'm still holding out hope for JW but someone needs to get some mongrel into him big time.
  8. Tricky
    No, that's normally when you would get a disposal - he was equal 5th highest in those BTW... But you're right, a hard tackling game just isn't glamorous enough.

    Not necessarily my ideal choice in this hypothetical but I would say a change for JW is not beyond the realms of possibility: Out of contract at end of 2013 Negotiations "mutually" delayed until end of season 1/4 start to a season with top 4 expectations Longest continuous serving of any current coach Just sayin..

    Funny how polarised opinion is on this point. On one hand he has "fractured the playing group" and "the players don't warm to him". On the other, "The players seem to back him in".
  11. Tricky
    Agree. Looking forward to seeing him out there soon.

    You responded to the question "what are the disciplines put in place" with "a multitude of disciplines off the field that measure up well against other clubs". I'd love to understand exactly what these are... Is the "nutty professor that the players don't warm to" merely perception derived from lack of development of certain players and the overall "tone" of what we see on-field, or do we have insiders on record saying as much? I don't get to training so I'll take your word that the standards are light years ahead of what we had. Incidentally I'm not disputing any of this - I am very much on the fence regarding Neeld at this stage.

    Firstly, Kudos for supporting the Dees for 49 years... I feel it only fair to say that on the few occasions that I have met Brad Green he was a great bloke - several of these were not "club related" events so he needn't have been on his best behaviour.

    Good post. Well done boys.

    It's a technicality. Giving a specific answer to a specific question without going on to disclose the full nature of any association with Dank was misleading and intentionally deceitful. So yes, I would say it was untruthful (not to mention stupid).
  16. Tricky
    Agree.
  17. Tricky
    Exactly. "If there was an association, regardless of whether there has been an employment agreement, I think that would have been relevant to our briefings.'' "This issue of ethics and trust in our code ... is something that you can't play ping-pong with,'' "If anybody hasn't got the message that they must be absolutely truthful ... then there will be consequences.'' -Vlad http://www.heraldsun.com.au/afl/teams/afl-demands-melbourne-to-tell-truth-on-new-stephen-dank-claims/story-e6frf9mf-1226623810469

    Because they were SMS messages (brief by name & nature) and "Jack" is not unique name on our list?
  19. Tricky
    Agree. Downplaying the involvement of our club, whether it be players or doctors, directly or indirectly, was dishonest and foolish. Very poor judgement.
  20. Tricky
    And does he have a sleeve?
  21. Tricky
    This. Will be the only way to shut them up. I'll be flicking the red button if they are getting a towelling, could be a fun listen. More on it here http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/bartlett-sees-red-over-ed-20130418-2i1kb.html Oh, and special comments from none other than Joffa the head bogan.

    Not very.

    Agree, unless he plays this week and therefore didn't earn it, got it back anyway. That would be a WTF Neeld moment for me. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/HeraldSunAflMelbourne/~3/hol_MwbmgS4/story-e6frf9mf-1226621044560
