Bruce said the skill errors, particularly by foot, were magnified by players upfield not being prepared to take a calculated gamble and run into space.

"We're not spreading well enough or working hard enough," Bruce said.

"The skills look a lot better when you're kicking it to a player who is running into open space and making it easy for the kicker.

"Part of that is being able to spread and work harder for us to provide an easier option for the kicker.

Well someone finally came out and said it ... at least they know where they've been going wrong the last 6 weeks ... gives me some hope they're going to fix it at some stage.

    hhmmm While it is good to read players talking positive I take it with a grain of salt when a player says: were magnified by players upfield not being prepared to take a calculated gamble and run into space.

    I thought running into space has bene part of the game for awhile now...

    it's meant to be, but it's a significant part of the game that we're not executing... we turn the ball over quite often because we don't have options down the field to kick the ball to... this is due to players not running into space... so when they do this, we move the ball much better, but they're just not doing it often enough...

    Seriously, if you don't follow Freo or the Dees, would you even watch any of the game??

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
