Epic Fail Thread.

No but seriously I'll miss reading your posts Joeboy. Perhaps we can start an "epic fail of the week" thread in your absence? I'm sure this last few rounds are going to be brilliant quality football. It would be fun to point out the biggest stuff up of the week :D (and lets hope it's not winning...)

I'll remind you of that on Sunday.

It's going to be a great concept, and much like the 3 word analysis will catch on. Bring your visual aids! :D

I will be taking over the 3 word analysis from now on.

The decision is final.

Travis - your thread starts and ends with Newton (possibly a few consolations).

Whelan - kicked great goal

Jurrah - took great mark

Miller - easy shots missed

Newton - missed easy shot

Moloney - doesn't shut up

Mackenzie - had good debut

Bruce - has poor disposal

Davey - kicking a worry?

Valenti - started at FF

Morton - shut down champ

Bartram - very good game

45hotgod - was not cold

Ricky P - finding his feet

we are still waiting YM :unsure:

I know most won't really care , but my weekly thread will not appear for the next 3 weeks as I'll be tanking it overseas .

Anyone is welcome to take over in my absence .

Hopefully when you get back we have the PP wraped up. I wish I could take off for 3 weeks, I cant handle all this tanking and wanting us to lose even though I know its for the best.

Completely forgot to do this but really this game completely lacked in passion. We wanted to lose and everyone knew we wanted to lose. Guys were played out of position like Morton, any analysis completed on this game is largely irrelevant.

Morton out of position?? Bailey played him on goodes, i think he was perfect fit for the role, tall, can match him around the ground! Thought it was a great coaching move!

Morton tagging is out of position for a HBF/wingman.

Did a good job but played out of position.

Explained.

You're both right and wrong. Morton was played in a different position to usual, not a wrong position, and did well in it. It showed me that Morton has the ability to play more than one end of the ground. It also showed me that Bailey is willing to move players around the ground at the expense of winning the game.

The game did lack passion, though.

Yeah point taken. Bailey is clearly playing them in unfamiliar roles to improve their skills (and to tank). Morton is a good example. His strength is running up and down the wing racking up touches and creating play, tagging a player of Goodes' ability wouldn't be a role that he's had to do much before. I think he did very well, but Bailey is clearly not coaching to win, he's coaching for the future, and I love it.

Joeboy - enjoy those analyses

...they make me think. Have a great trip, safe return. Shalom.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
