strategies to beat geelong

Featured Replies

to beat geelong we must apply pressure and stop the likes of ling, selwood, ablett, and corey put pettard on selwood, moloney the endurance on ling, bartram can take ablett and bruce on corey keeping them to under 12 possesions until half time we can have a chance or flood the backline which seemed to work when collingwood played them in the prelim and worked and has never seen the strategy since then.

I volunteer to stop Ling. At halftime I will buy a pie and push it into his face.

Swine Flu is the only answer....!

Maybe all Demon Supporters could just cough a lot towards Geelong players on sunday, starting with the warn ups, which may render them seriously ill for the 2nd Half...We then may have a slight chance to over power their score.

Dont kid yourself mate

We don't beat Geelong. So therefore, any strategies to neat Geelong, won't actually be strategies because we wouldn't have won.

i'm thinking the answer isn't how to beat geelong but rather how to extract 2 points....

1. issue an act of terrorism warning on al jezzera. Get MCG evacuated and announce it a draw... (might end up in prison but atleast we don't lose too badly) or 2. create an act of god... earthquake, tornado, cyclone or other to hit on sunday and hence abandon game and we get 2 points. Or...... Bugger it thats all i've got can someone else come up with a sensible plan to get the game postponed until 2012

No, there is another oh jedi master..

Block the Geelong Freeway for 4 hours. Deny access to Avalon in case they think of flying once stuck in traffic. <_< :D

It's not about winning this week, It's all about keeping the damage to a minimum. It'll be good to see our guys go against the best in the land. Look forward to Robbo's return. RUUUSSSSSSSELLLLLLLLLLLLL !!!!


Should be a relatively close contest until the umpire bonces the ball to start the game.

hmmm, strategy....

It's a shame Wheatley isn't playing, everytime we get the ball we could have given it to him and he could have booted it out of the stadium - they would have run out of footballs eventually.

On a serious note I think we have to keep it simple and just be competitive as possible. Give our forwards the best chance possible by getting the ball down there quickly.

All we need to do is attempt to stick to our proccesses, becasue this is the best test we will get as to where our wekaness/Strengths are.

Forget the fancy stuff and just play our game. :o:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

That didn't look good in the first 9 seconds did it!. The wonders of hindsight...

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
