I for one have been guilty of some negativity around here, but mainly frustration, but today was a bloody rippa and my positive for today was Maxy Gawns effort on the HFF that set up Trenners goal, inspirational stuff like that will lift our young Dee's to greater things in the not to distant future.

One positive per post, lets c how many we can get.

YEEEEW

I really liked Jack Watts' game today. Another preseason and he will be taking 10+ marks per game. His vision and ground level skills is amazing for a 196cm key forward.

Jeremy Howe also impressed with his marking. 12 marks and great disposal is encouraging for a first year player. I am just waiting for him to take a hanger! He has really taken over Brad Miller's position, with the added bonus of solid field kicking and decision making.

Baileys recruiting and coaching .Anyone?

I actually think the players managed to play the way Bailey wants them to play (as they did against Essendon and Adelaide). Once they develop enough experience/game time, develop their skills further and grow into their bodies, they will be able to apply the same sort of pressure to the power teams like Collingwood and that is when we will see them vying for a flag... under coach Bailey!

Cudos to Bailey.

Just watched the coaching video from a few weeks ago again. Our Forward/Mids need to be super fit to win against top teams.

But when it works it can be very powerful.

I wasn't being sarcastic about switcher .I agree with nearly every decision he has made ( including Jmac) .The heat will be on if we keep turning in the second ( [censored] weeks) away games but he didn't go for short term options like days of yore .Brian Wilson ,Kelvin T , Peter Moore ,Jacko ,and all the other short term gratification moves we have made have failed badly .Can I get a bet on for 100-1 for 2013 flag?I'll have a hundred on it easy .

GAWN! Im telling you he is a cult hero already. So happy to see him kick his 1st goal and that pressure he applied to set up Trenners was awesome. Also he sat a few freo players on there backsides.

Howe- Awesome match and magnificent dtrong hands and kicked a couple

Green- Finally a captains game. He still missed a few that he would have got last year bit 5 goals is good and hopefully he can back it up

Watts- 24 possies or similar to that and kicked 3 goals and his use of the footy around the ground was great.

Stef Martin- 3 goals and great work around the ground and his ruck work

McKenzie- Just love him. His tackling, his pressure and isnt afraid to go in hard for the ball

Just everything about the match was great. We just need to come out and do the same stuff next week.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
