I was thinking about the game plan the other day and it reminded me exactly of the mighty ducks 3 movie if anyone has seen it.

Those guys were all about attack and then the coach came in to instill a defensive edge. Will be interesting to see how it goes this weekend. Be almost the first chance we can do a bit of our own bailey vs neeld comparison in a way i think.

I can see this game plan working just as it did in the mighty ducks

    Didn't see the movie. Did the Mighty Ducks lose a lot at first?

    Haha so coach Bombay is dean bailey and neeld is the new coach that comes in and shakes things up what you are saying makes a lot of sence. Quack quack quack quack I always wondered if a flying v would work on footy field

    That is freaky... I seriously had the same thought just the other day. Hahaha. That's really really random!

    Coach Bombay = Dean Bailey: Loved by players and allowed players to develop a naturally attacking game plan. Coach Orion = Mark Neeld: Big hard-arse, my way or the highway coaching style. Players learn the finer points of the game, and develop into a hardened unit.

    I clearly watched too much Mighty Ducks as a kid. Haha

    Haha, love it. Mighty Ducks 3, great movie. Coach Orion is Mark Neeld. Hard defensive edge drastically different to the former attacking style (Bombay / Bailey); players don't like it; they rebel; they come around; they win; we're all happy.

    Yeah, if Neeld loses by anything less that 186 points he's better than Bailey?

    This weekend will do nothing for us to be able to compare Neeld and Bailey, especially given our most recent trip to Geelong was memorbale for all the wrong reasons.

    Where I will be judging any sign of improvement will be in the effort indicators (or whatever it was that Neeld calls them). If we can keep up the effort that we showed for a majority of the St Kilda game, then yes, maybe our future is looking a lot brighter. If we turn up and put in a shocker, where no different to where we were last year.

    If we get flogged due to a lack of effort, I'll be pi$$ed off. If we get flogged but show the same work rate or more than last week, I'll accept it.

    I'd prefer we didn't lose at all.

    My 1st reaction to reading this was to LOL.

    Now I'm thinking I'll have to watch the Mighty Ducks 3 .

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
