It doesn't matter who plays on Rioli.

The guy doesn't have a weakness.

yes he does. He has dodgy hammys!!

 

I have a good feeling the boys are starting to get it. We might not win but i feel we are a fighting chance this week. We need the hawks to be of there game and we need to fire. Might be dreaming but the dees like the cats of 07 will just click one of this days. Lookout when we learn to win mark neeld is the man

Have not been around to see the games Big Jim but by looking at the scores we might finally get it around the middle of 2013.

Keep in mind we are still loosing by significant margins.

Sorry DS but you will have to wait till 2013 at the earliest, we have a significantly poorer list than the Hawks miracles only happen in the Bible.

He can bring his dodgy hammys to the Dees any day this century and still run rings around Bennell and Davey

I'd have to say i'm a little worried too OD. I get the feeling the boys (and coach) seemed in some way "satisfied" with their efforts last week, yet we still lost by over 7 goals against a fairly depleted and relatively inexperienced (compared to recent years) Cat side. They had the wood on us and better quality players at the top (experience wise) and were playing at home in front of a home crowd i realise.

But if we don't step it up to another level (which might be just 2% extra effort/output or so....who knows) this week we might get a nasty surprise i reckon. Hopefully we do, but the mindset this week is a bit of a worry going in.

 

I have a family dinner that starts at 7.30 and will drag me away from the pain. Will be cheering them on though really, and just hope they continue to take steps in the right direction.

Until the MFC welcome pressure and thrive on it-LOOK FOR IT. our situation against hawthorn & other top sides will not change.


Some positives (and negatives) on the stats side. Would like to see stats such as (to name a few)... effective tackles, effective clearances, hit outs to advantage, play on %, etc but don't have access to them...anyone have that here??:

Rankings

Contested possessions: Demons 15th / Hawks 14th (Positive? lol)

Uncontested possessions: Demons 18th / Hawks 7th (i think that might be a negative!)

Disposal Efficiency: Demons 18th / Hawks 3rd (oops)

Contested Marks: Demons 4th / Hawks 14th (Yahoo!)

Clearances: Demons 11th / Hawks 18th (given our disposal efficiency i reckon we need to see "effective clearances" :wacko: , still a win is a win i guess)

Tackles: Demons 10th / Hawks 4th (i'd rather see effective tackles)

Goal Accuracy: Demons 7th / Hawks 9th (if we can only deliver accurately i50 and get it in there enough times! Woot woot)

Entries inside 50: Demons 17th / Hawks 7th

Rebound from defensive 50: Demons 2nd / Hawks 13th (the pressure being brought on our defense might pay off big time later i hope...doing a pretty good job given how often it's coming in atm).

Yeah its a worry when Neeld says that he couldnt fault the effort yet we still loose by 40 points.

Strangely, I've had the 1960's hit 'Friday on my Mind' by the Easybeats going around in my head ever since I first read the title of this thread several days ago ................ but it couldn't possibly be a portent of events at the G on Friday night, could it?

Sure hope so DOF. the only way this club will survive is to embrace pressure.

Northey was so f$&@'in close to doing it.

I heard a Luke Hodge grab this morning. Hawthorn have loved pressure since John Kennedy. It is there backbone.

If anyone has Buddy in their DreamTeam side....make him captain

So now just watch us play the Hawks back into the kind of form that will see them go on to improve those areas in which they are currently deficient.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
