The Great Wall of Melbourne

Featured Replies

 

Nice little article.

Oddly enough, whenever I see things on the great wall, I think of James Wall from Casey. A very nice player. He's another one who could be considered for rookyness at the end of the year.

Back to the article however, that's a staggering improvement from last year to this one. 22 less points conceded per game is a phenomenal leap. Imagine if we were to do the same again next year. :P

It's nice to finally get some recognition for our defence, but he still couldn't help the snipe at our supporter base in the final paragraph (or maybe I'm reading into that too much?).

 

Whilst I know there is an avalanche of opinion on why the Demons won't make the finals in another thread. This little article gives some weight as to why the demons could make the eight.

Of course, this will depend upon the consistent nature of the Demons performances this season. Or will that be 'inconsistent?'

Anyway, depending upon the rate of improvement within our forward structure as the side builds 'synergy' and 'confidence' and 'momentum', our questions will sooner or later be answered,... eventually. :)

Does anyone see how I sat on the fence ? B)

I love it. :lol:

Northern NSW be buggered - Noosa of course!

this is a good sign, DB has a good defence, this is something that ND was never able to form, even when we where a top four side, our defence had no stars in it, and when every we did not kick goals the opposition would kick lots, now by the look of it when we don't kick goals this year we have been able to hold sides to low score most of the time. there are more good defenders in this one side, then ND had in all his time at the Dee's, this is where he failed to take as to the top, and that is he never had a good defence.

Even blind freddy can tell you the dees have the best young back line in the AFL. The dees back line looks the goods, and it will only be a matter of time before the midfield is polished a little further, and the front 6 start causing problems.

One of the commentators from the Port Adelaide game was raving about how good our backline is. (Oviously before the last quarter) Then said the best thing about it was they could all play together for ten years,mentioning Warnock. Great effort for Warnock to play until his 36.

I think you'll find it was Tony Shaw. He loves us for whatever reason. Has been very complimentary of us all season.

I think you'll find a lot of commentators are starting to get on the Demon Express, as they realise we play an exciting brand of football which will see us enjoy great success over the next decade. With a bit of luck, we'll be better than the Geelong of the past 4 years.


frawley is looking massive in that picture....big [censored] :)

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
