POSTGAME: Rd 06 vs Fremantle
The Bison must have been listening

Time to go Goody?
I have been a massive Goody supporter but take this to the bank, we can't sack him until we appoint a CEO. It doesn't matter if we miraculously win the next 10 games straight he is gone. There are alot of Melbourne ex players who's names don't normally come up that want him gone and it has nothing to do with the game plan. Hopefully we sort this mess up before Kalani White makes his decision. Make no mistake Green will sack him as soon as he he has a CEO. They will probably do a pre planned review first

What gets you excited about the club?
Kings Birthday so I can boo Maynard

Letter from Brad Green
Communication with the members has been hopeless at Melbourne for since ever. Brad Green has been a breathe of fresh air. He took the role of interim President which i was duplicitous of the the time because I wrobly believed he was under qualified. He cannot be blamed for our disastress start to the season but is addressing to the members like we all wanted. Fremantle have a habbit of dismantling us even when we were good so I'm not sure his comments will age well after this week. But please demonlanders don't rip into Brad Green when he came into the position with a sinking ship around him through no fault of his

Time to go Goody?
I think part of our problem is we haven't had any good assistant coaches since Yze. Has a president ever gone on to coach? At this stage I'd take Brad Green. He's one of the few I trust at the club And give him some proper assistant coaches

GAMEDAY: Rd 05 vs Essendon
The worst thing about this game is Essendon are death riding us

Kozzie, Lindsay and Windsor all good kicks

Notice a Lindsay in the side. Any relation to Xavier?

PREGAME: Rd 05 vs Essendon
One of the more bizarre posts I've ever seen on Demonland. We've won 1 premiership in 50 years and Viney/Clarry were integral in that. That style of uncompromising footy they played shouldn't be coached?

Tom Fullarton
Your sources or common sence? Fritta won't play AFL next year if he can't kick goals.

Game plans, tactics and all that jazz
Keepings off will never work for us with Gawn, Oliver, Petracca and Viney. It might in the future with X, mcphee, Langford and kolt. But I think we are playing catchup with our recruiting rather than leading. When old man Viney was at the club we only recruited players who were competitive. Look at the players we have taken outside the national draft and besides Aiden Johnson we haven't continued down that path. Hard at it competitive footy will always win football finals regardless of what the game plan is. Game plan is over rated winning the footy isn't

Game plans, tactics and all that jazz
I'm so fed up with arm chair experts and ex-players saying we don't play the modern game. The modern game is a myth and always evolving based on who wins the premiership. The fact is we won a premiership based on our strengths and recruited around that. If we follow what the Hawks or others do now we will never be as good. We need to build our style that suits us and let others follow again. Pagans paddock, Clarko's cluster barassi's handball handball handball were not copying what other successful teams were doing but finding a way to win

PREGAME: Rd 04 vs Geelong
Oliver on the pine. Surprising. I would have thought Petracca or Viney before him
-
Goalkicking
If you took out shots from outside 50 I'd guess Rivers would be off the least accurate and Gawn would be on it
-
Xavier Lindsay Update?
I was looking at the positives. Trac, Gawn and Lever all went alright in our premiership year

2025 MRO & Tribunal
Some bloke pushed the number 1 draft pick (Lalor) into a collision that broke his jaw and got nothing in a practise match. I get the MRO is a tough gig but consistency can't be that hard Nobody thinks Lobb should have got off for punching Cox in his goggles but he did. Don't even get me started about a dog ending the career of a hero of the MFC.

Xavier Lindsay Update?
I've only ever wanted Pert and Neeld gone. I was joking about the medical staff letting X run in a straight line
-
Xavier Lindsay Update?
The same medical staff that sent Petracca back on the ground?
-
Game plans, tactics and all that jazz
With out any data to back this up I'd guess kozzie, mcVee and Windsor are the quickest players on our list. They are all missing. Chandler would be up there with them and no surprise he is excelling at the moment. A game plan is reliant on the cattle and at the moment we don't have it.

Time to start a rebuild?
Kozzie and Clarry keep. Gawn and May at the end and need replacing. Brand Petracca has to be on the table. Petty and Sparrow have not come on like they should have. Mcvee, Windsor, Langford and X can all get the footy and hit a target. They are the rebuild.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Gold Coast
You'd rather lose and justify to yourself our gamesyle is no good than win against an up and coming side where our gamestyle holds up?

Dees - except Pickett take note punching Cox in the goggles is fair game
