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 .

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
