Dees woes could be in their head

Recommended Posts

The Dees players could be overawed by past and current coaches Bailey was premiership player,Neeld came from a premiership team as an assistant and Roos is a premiership coach.High standards set might be too difficult to achieve.

Where do we go from hear, 800 plus disposals; 10 goals in two matches along with players unable to take simple chest marks,tackling almost non existent ,passing the ball to fellow team mates below par etc. The club could bring in

Evans,Blease and Kent .These guys haven't played senior footy this year.Why not pick Viney ( not likely to happen).Perhaps Roos will have to change the position of some players so as to minimise over use of the ball,improve defence and

forward areas and most minimise player stupid errors. For a long time I thought Watts and Pederson would step up…… nothing like wishful thinking……. wheres the SHIRAZ!!!!!

This is my radical team for this week assuming GAWN is on leave.

FF Spencer ( doesn't need to worry about passing the ball off)

pretty radical indeed. can't see Spencer playing anywhere but Ruck. Can't kick run lead ..can't seem to do anything except TAP which he's not bad it. Can't Tap it for a goal though. If Spencer had an inclination for goal he would of pushed forward and kicked a couple by now.

Apart from that doesn't look too bad. A bit sad though.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
