Karma bites again. Hope fat cat Bulcher and Co get deregistered.

Like a lot of us I truly believe trading Gys will hurt if traded for peanuts. I see him as a spoon fed private school kid that requires some home truths about the work rate required to be an afl footballer. If Neeld can't back himself in to do this, what does it say about him? Ok all, start accusing me of an anti Neeld agenda..... Or whatever rubbish comes my way when I post an opinion on here.

watch the last quarter of the rd 23 port vs tiges game. His zip and evasive skills broke the tiges press and he was instrumental in port getting back in the game and forcing a draw. Based on this and costing us relatively nothing, no issue with it.

agenda? It's called critical thinking. Keep the blind fold on tight pal.

No, never met him in person, would like to. But his press conferences, interviews and especially his foundation heroes speech consistently disappoint, in terms of lack of engagement, motivation and instilling belief. Hope he proves me wrong for MFC sake, but this bloke worries the hell out of me.

absolutely.... As I've said before, Neeld has no emotional intelligence, and hence no people skills. For such a revered pies assistant coach, both Wellingham and Dawes didn't want to even meet with him...... This bloke really worries me.

This is lunacy!! Freo of the 90's - 3 duds traded from Essendon so they could get Matt Lloyd. If Pies use pick 4 to get Hogan in the mini draft we will regret this for the next decade. Neeld is showing desperation and making short term decisions. Another rumour is the Pies are willing to offload Wellingham because his groin has ongoing issues and he has been nursed through the last two seasons - might explain the lack of penetration in his kicking. As for Dawes - pick 26 at best for this bloke.

Another AFL assisted Club raid - Scully and Tippett. Crows have had worst run than us, Bock, Davis & now Tippett - all funded by the AFL

This feels like Freo in the 90's to me. The 3 spuds they accepted in return for letting Essendon draft Matt Lloyd. I think Collingwood know are playing us a treat with pick 4. Got to be 13 plus Martin / Pettard etc...... think we'll all live to regret seeing whoever Pies draft win a Brownlow in 5 years.

Butcher re-signed at the end of last year for 2 or 3 years with Port. Could not imagine Port would entertain even looking at a trade.

Collingwood rate Rounds, just have too much midfield depth. I would certainly think Neeld with his obsession of all things collingwood will be having a dip.

Sunday footy show was fairly strong in saying Caddy wanted to go to Collingwood. And the deal being proposed is 3 ways - Caddy to Pies, Tippett to Gold Coast and Brown and maybe pick to Adelaide. Tippett would be far more highly rated by GC than our pick 13.

I have also heard that collingwood are very keen on Gysberts, with talks having taken place this week. If talent spotters like the cats and pies rate him, WTF would we be doing off loading him. Also, Gerard Healy on AW said tonight that the Saints and Cats are both putting offers to Riv. Culturally I cant see how we can let him go....... great clubman we need to pay overs to.

Thanks for the synopsis of previous 29 posts you sad [censored]. Happy for you to dismiss a legitimate third party observation regarding attitudual and cultural issues that have contributed to poor performance and development of talent due to having posted only 29 times! It's people like you that make these fan sites such a laborious read. Those like you that only leave their lounge room and venture out into society once a week to go to the footy get all there opions from the Internet and print media without actually meeting or knowing anyone with true insight or club knowledge. As for previous posts: Neeld - still feel he lacks emotional intelligence and has pulled wrong levers at the club. Misson - believe he should be accountable for players decrease in leg speed this year ie trengove Schwab - still feel he's a poor leader of the club, goes into hiding when times get really tough and poor with members and coteries. Unlike others ive actually had the balls to discuss this with him. Sellar - yep, still think he's a spud.

I had breakfast with the Storm's Cooper Cronk recently and he shared a view on Dee's youngsters work ethic. He said he looked at them in the gym (that they share at AAMI) and couldn't believe how lazy they are. He said they work through their sets with no intensity or purpose. The younger blokes clown around and none of the older blokes pull them into line. He said the Storms weight session intensity compared to the dees was a million miles apart. After Green's swipe at some of the younger players, Jimmy's books observations and now this - it's no wonder Neeld wants to turnover half the list.

Hopefully I am wrong - but wasn't the Opel and Webjet contracts only a one year sponsorship deal? Are we on the market for 2 new major sponsors if they choose not to renew in a months time?

Yep - I would do 13 and Bail in a heartbeat too. Caddy will be a gun - he's effectively a first year player.

Shouldn't the headline be Casey reserves player walks out?

Sellar is an absolute spud. Good endeavour, but poor decision maker, concrete hands and terrible below his knees - send him packing back to SA

Man up pal. Being a Dee's supporter is character building - show some balls and stick fat

Not sure how schwab gets pump up for this great announcement? Josh Moloney and Tim Harrington's area. Cameron is too busy trying to find China on a map and designing the 2013 version of the MFC private school blazer.

My take on it was he was ordinary....... but very undercooked in fitness due to injury and never having a pre-season. But I saw enough today to say keep playing him as he's football smarts and adds a different mix in the middle - doesn't seem to make stupid clangers for someone so inexperienced either. Think of Jonesy after a dozen games! They take time.

Schwab goes missing whenever things get tough. Hero of social media in pre-season when we got Mitch Clark and Coaching appointments........ haven't heard from him since about round 2. Pissweak leader........... the fish rots at the head!!

Brian Taylor has called for MFC to wound up and thrown out of competition if found guilty...... biggest [censored] in the media. I seriously can't get over what a dog Brock is. I call on everyone on Twitter to let @dirty14 know just what a dirty dog we think he is.

Couldn't do any worse than the previous two blokes doing the recruiting...... I think they were getting $1mill slings from West Coast.
