MELBOURNE has vowed to fight back in this week's game after the removal of their CEO yesterday.

At a team "bonding" breakfast in Sorrento today, assistant coach Neil Craig and star defender Jack Watts both said it was time to turn around their game.

Craig admitted the team was under immense pressure after two disastrous losses and the exit of CEO Cameron Schwab but said players wouldn't be affected by the latest management crisis.

"In footy clubs players play," he said.

People power, says AFL

"Obviosuly they want to know what is happening to a certain extent with the management of the club. But clearly their core business is to play.

"In the end they will get on with the job."

Defender Watts said, "Definitely" when asked whether the team could turn around their game.

"We are just focusing on the game for this weekend and the chance to get out there again," he said.

Coach Mark Neeld was at Hotel Sorrento with the team.

Craig admitted the latest crisis had placed pressure on the team and its coaches.

CEO Schwab quits

"Cameron has been in footy for a long time and has been a great contributor to the Melbourne Football Club," he said.

"I have personally enjoyed working with him and I haven't had the opportunity to talk to him yet.

"The AFL industry is a high-pressure industry at the best of times.

"From my perspective, let's worry about the football playing side of things because the game comes around pretty quickly next week."

The team is expected to return to Casey Fields for training today.
