Training - Thursday 28 May, 2015

Saty, in the Dogs game I thought there were a number of occasions where a forward got a mark on the very edge of their range or capability, and very deliberately went back to take the shot, instead of trying to give it short to a lead, or hand off to a better kick.

The examples were Jeffy's goal, Toump's second goal, Howe's two shots from the boundary (especially the second which was further out), Hogan's shot that just missed from just beyond 50m, and of course Ro Bail's miss. Maybe Pedo's first goal too, I'm not so sure about that one. They all seemed to ignore a risky short pass or two, took a deep breath, went back & had the shot.

I wondered whether this is just what happened on the day, or whether it's a team instruction that if you get a mark inside 50, it's your responsibility to get the goal.

Garlett also passed one from the boundary line to JHogan

Told Howie that was right next to him in the crowd for his hanger at the weekend, and was going to offer him pen on way down.......got the reply i thought it would, just thought Garlo wasn't training, means nothing these days, Garlett wasn't there last week for last session

What was that?

 

How did Toumpas train?

Because it's you asking, I have chased it up for you and Picket Fences. Apparently Roosy and Goody had good long meeting about toump and they are considering dropping him from training. Need him to get more game time so he improves during the week. Reckon he needs to be saved for Monday to Friday duties.........

What a dumb [censored] question.

Love your work DC. Particularly an abuse of powers!

"Who are you and please stop talking to me."

Chook that will confuse him.

First you ask for a response then tell him not to!

NB:- When you read him please insert her, it, them or WTF as appropriate.

Training was on again, same drills as per the last few weeks, ball movement, ball movement, ball movement, with designated kickers and more and less defenders

Tyson and Jamar only ran laps

Whole squad very upbeat, the skills today were very good, with the normal one or two errant kicks and handballs

Viney looks ready to tear somebody apart

Jeff Garlett arranged a performance by Indigenous dancers at the end of the session, lot of footy dept and admin staff attended

The boots that Jeff is going to wear on Saturday are cool, put a pic on Twitter later

Complimented Fitzy on his game, said he is really enjoying the role down back, same with Aaron vandenBerg, really enjoyed the role he was given

Any questions as per the norm

Pics on Twitter Demonpk later

Was that role to: search, kill, destroy everything and anything that lays in the path of him getting the football? If so, then MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, Aaron.

A rabble of AFL....

Toump trained really well, confidence is growing

That's what was liked about him when they were watching before we got him, only rookie though, always the chance he couldn't lift to AFL level, which has now been put to bed in a big way

As for the set shots on goal, I think that is a rule now, unless there is somebody completely open

What was that?

Something slightly rude

True, but that wasn't a set shot.

W e have been a cortege of mourners for too long.

Excellent work, DC. One minor suggestion -- a tank of blues? :)

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
