Dean Bailey on SEN tomorrow morning

Recommended Posts

I don't mind listening to 1116 while drifting off to sleep but as soon as I wake up in the morning I have to turn it over to 927 STRAIGHT AWAY. Maher and Watson are two of the biggest tools in the media. Their show is just so fake / contrived and Maher's voice is just so........what's the word? Ocker, blokey?.....god I just can't put into words how much I dislike listening to him speak.

Have you ever heard of ANYONE who likes the way he speaks? It might be ok if he ever said ANYTHING of substance. I remember about 3-4 years ago Richo does a Hammy and he gets on the line from the boundary and claims it's career ending, and he's been doing it ever since.

I can deal with an ex-footballer perhaps being a bit on the rough side speech-wise, but when a guy's ONLY job is to say relevant things and sound good, I just don't understand why he's employed at all. I can't find a criterion he excels in.

And who's next in line? Underwood.

Andy Maher is the male version of the steretypical hysterical woman (Before the lynch mob descends, please read the use of the key word....stereotypical - as in not real).

He is all about drama - empty vacouous drama, with the veneer of sociability.

Urrrggh.

I heard him say the other morning that he had no problem with the Ju$$/ Visy deal, and was quite shocked at how other people continue to react..Enough said..he must be silenced soon.

you're absolutely right. everything is exaggerated. and biased. every mediocre carlton player is underated. and everyone he speaks about is the best at something in the afl. best contested mark in the afl. best leap in the afl. best this best that in the afl. it might be partially bearable if he wasn't talking absolute rubbish the whole time about players who are clearly not.

my recollection of interview

Asked DB what he thought of the first two games

first game was not how we play the game

second game was playing more attacking footy

started to move the ball more

need to get more games into the young ones, once

we get 40 to 60 games into the players

then we will see the recruiting efforts pay off

expects to see the recruits of three years ago

make an impact on the game

like jack grimes, maric, cheney

big loss in mortan as he is one

of those players to show improvement

and have an impact this year wont

Spot on. I find it disturbing that we may be relying on Jamar and Martin up forward. Jamar should be in the ruck and martin in my opinion is not capable. I really wish we drafted some key tall forwards in the last couple of years so we would have some depth in this area. Looks like Garland will be playing back.

sorry about that

I could be wrong he might have said over 30,000 not around 30,000 if so my mistake

At the end of the day it is what it is.

Hope to see some good footy before round one just to help

Cheers

I tend too agree they have tried the whole Martin Forward and it does not work he is NOT a good set shot and is suited better in the back half, I am a fan of Jamar as a CHF but the problem with that is we don't have 3 of him. They have too play Jammar as our Number 1 Ruckman and Spencer Number 2 they could swap @ CHF and Martin can Ruck in the Back Line?? And to think many would have been happy to trade Jammar for a draft pick last year.... IMO This bloke is one of the most important players in our side as we don't have any ruck options

Is that correct ?

I'd thought their definitive goal would be to surpass the ~31,500 they achieved last year. :(

I think Dean meant to crack into the seniors by the 2nd half of the season. Sure he'll be playing for Casey well before that.

Thought it was pretty disappointing overall, though hardly unexpected - responses (or more correctly non-responses) to the questions about our set-up for kick-ins, and the lack of a recruitment strategy regarding key forwards was evasive, as usual.

I'm sorry but .... :blink:

maybe he doesnt want to blab his tactics for the oppositions to hear

they have already told us they are focused on a killer midfield and that they didn't rate any of the talls available at pick 11 or 18. End of story.

I don't know why people expect such transparency, and it seems entertainment, from a coaches interview

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.
