Before all you Neeld apologists slam this thread, I think the point being raised is that with Neeld it's not the "what" but the "how". He's had the best intentions and footy knowledge to try and change culture but just doesn't have the people / man management skills to pull it off. I have no doubt he lost majority of players within 7 weeks of his appointment.

Mathew lloyd scathing of Neeld tonight on AW. Said his comments on dees losing Moloney because of new world of free agency and not being able to match offer under free agency were rubbish and a cop out. Said Moloney left simply because of Neeld and and that Neeld needs to start looking at himself as to why Jamar, Moloney, Trengove, Watts, Mckenzie all not developing or going backwards under his program. All agreed that Neeld won't be at Dees next year. About time media stopped beating around the bush.

This kid is yet another being destroyed by Neeld and his total lack of being able to adjust his style and coaching for individuals. Just tell this kid he's got 10 straight games and tell him to just play his natural game. Let him take it on, use his pace, break the lines & take shots for goal 60m out on the run. Give the kid confidence and stop stuffing with his head. Everyone's been sucked into Neeld's obsession of physical conditioning and training standards and lost focus on game day and kicking bloody goals.

Had a big insurance business and sold out to AON about 5 years ago...... Minted.

I have been keen to see the back of Cam since 186. But saying that, all respect to bloke for that press conference, handled it with absolute class and did his absolute best to protect the brand of the MFC.

Does anyone else think that Adrian Anderson is a good chance to be appointed CEO? Any new CEO would have to get the AFL seal of approval.

Could just imagine him going home each night and complaining to the wife that all the players hate him and don't let him into meetings. Then one night the she suggests he gets a sleeve so players think he's cool.

Mate, if you want a sleeve at 61 good on you. Perhaps you could invest the money in a shrink to look into your deep seated insecurities instead?

Can't confirm. Only repeating what I heard on SEN at about 12.30. Cam Mooney brought it up and Half said he'd heard about it. Mooney went on to say it was ironic as he though Nathan Jones sleeve had counted against his captaincy bid. What a look, the specs, suit and a sleeve.

If ever I needed final proof that Cam has lost it, according to Half and Cam Mooney on SEN, Schwab is sporting a new tattoo sleeve. Can't believe the Board would be too impressed with their CEO courting corporate sponsors with a fresh sleeve. Can understand a 20 y.o. getting a sleeve, but a bloke in his late 40's it smacks of crisis time and lack of clarity and judgement, Last straw, this bloke needs to go.

Chocco Williams would definitely take the job. It is his last chance as senior coach. If west coast continue to lose, I wonder if a call to worsfold might be worthwhile, he's out on contract this year.

The Board should personally pay out his new 3 year contract. Unbelievably stupid and irresponsible decision. I only hope they had performance kpi's in his contract that allow them to exit him with minimum payout. Schwab is as weak as pis$ and should have the balls to resign. The fish rots at the head.

Stick fat you turn coats. I know it hurts - but life wasn't meant to be easy and success isnt a given. You're all sitting on your couches calling the club weak and walking away. However, a club is only as strong as it's members - and if you're all prepared to throw in towel then it's no wonder we're so weak on-field. My 3you and 1yo will have no choice but to support the red and blue - it is character building.

How did Lyon and Schwab ever appoint is goose. He's hideous.

Bye bye Neeld. And take rejects gilles, seller, Byrnes and rod an with you. Rock bottom.

Agree - otherwise we are going down the same path as Fitzroy. To me the only one obtainable is Choco.

At about Round 3 last year I expressed I didn't think Neeld had to emotional intelligence to be a senior coach - pulls all the wrong strings at the wrong time - falling out with all senior players, constant referal to "good clubs like collingwood", making Trengove skipper in his 3rd year, can't flex his game style to suit to suit his team on the park - all signs of a bloke that can't see the wood from the trees. I was called a Troll at the time, but I think a few of you might to coming around. Anyway, I firmly believe that Neeld's job is in strife. The only thing that might save him is we cant afford the payouts. That being said, I think the Club should firmly consider giving Chocco Williams the senior job. Premiership coach, that in 13 years at Port had a winning % of 57%. Consistent record of challenging players attitudes, getting under their skin and developing talent. I could see him finally getting the best out of blokes like Silvia, Garland, Watts and Frawley - that have been going through the motion for the past 2 years.

The only time he showed intensity was when the defenders huddled after every port goal and he looked to spray all his team mates. Can't believe when the game was over in 3rd and Clark injured that Neeld wouldn't throw him forward, in the guts or give him a role. Such unimaginative coaching.

This bloke set MFC back a decade, I won't be worried about him. You would think it would have to be ACC related.

I still think this is the only mistake of the off season. I found it ironic when on draft night Todd Viney said we drafted 25 y.o. Matt Jones at pick 52 because our midfield was all of a similar height (short!).

I think if Toumpas is available at 4, surely the Dees would take him. As much as I like the thought of Viney and Wines smashing heads - Toumpas adds a different mix (outside class) to the midfield mix. I would also have a question mark over Wines kicking.

Shizen footy coach, but great club man Bails. Confident he will do the right thing by MFC.

How could you rate it a pass. We've paid overs for everything, and received unders for everything given up..... The art of negotiation MFC style.

This fires sale reflects on FD deficiencies, not the players. We've traded one of our few "potential" A graders for another clubs 25 yo C grader...... Because Neeld didn't have the abiliy to coach him........farken joke this trade.

joke of a trade. FD stuffed up by not trying to keep Rivers, assuming the compo pick would deliver Pederson. Now they are going to fire sale Gys to cover a stuff up and because Neeld not good enough to get the best out of his talent. Joke if this trade happens.
