Inherently wrong
There has been something inherently wrong with the Melbourne football club since round 12, 1965, when six-time premiership coach Norm Smith was sacked. The Demons were the reigning premiers, third on the ladder when Smith was informed via telegram that his services were no longer required.

Another coach is gone, most likely forever. Former Adelaide coach Neil Craig resigned on Monday after almost seven years in charge. It was an emotional and necessary exit, one that spares all involved more innuendo and grief.
