Tappy is having a blinder of a game

One of the best I've seen Jones play for a while as well... if the rest could follow the lead of Jones, Viney, Tappy and Garland, we would be much better placed.

we work hard for 6 minutes for a behind and carlton get an inside fifty and for the 8th time today they have someone running out the back of the pack. am i the only one seeing this or???

Posted

Carlton are getting away with murder with their tackling... but hey...they are laying them and worrying later...we spend far too much time watching

Boys having a good dip, but geez we make the easy look so hard and just can't rack up cheap kicks like other teams can.

10 scoring shots to 12 and we are 4 goals down. wasting it today boys. showing fight but we want more than that. should be right in this game.

Well... We're still in it ... But I want to rip my TV of the wall and stomp on it until it bleeds LCD.

Not sure whether I should go outside.

Half time uncontested possessions:


CFC 109 MFC 67

The effort is good, but there's still no spread, idea how to run the zone, or marking targets inside 50

Some poor shots at goal - we should be closer. I think we held our own in that quarter. Howe needs to get more involved.

This was a respectable quarter. Tappy is really winning me over and Nathan Jones should be given the Bluey now, he is seriously a gun.

If we could kick straight and weren't so god awful on the counter attack, we'd be in this. Sadly, knowing us, I'm scared the second half will be a whitewash.

All that work and on one inside our 50 to kick to

we play a game of footy whereby we dont beleive in ourselves too much..If we did we'd make position, wed run off and go forward in the belief the ball was coming..

we effectively just play a defeateist negative game....save for 4 or 5 players who are actually trying to create something

Genuinely enjoyed that second quarter. Forgotten what that feels like. Great endeavour.

Jones is heroic. There's no other word.

We have no one inside 50 so all our shots are snaps or kicks out of packs, very few set shots or open inside 50s like Carlton have had.

    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.
