The wheel started to turn in the later part of that quarter.. Confident we'll run over them

Posted

Hogan 2 shockers in a row. Isn't getting near it.

Disappointing efforts by the forwards. Really poor.

If we want to win we need aggression.

The mids need to take advantage of Gawn

Our forwards need to lift big time - Hogan, Dawes, Garrett, Watts (we need some people to step up and kick some goals)

In positive reflection, half time last night was relatively similar. Tigers broke away comfortably after that though.

Cold as a witch's teet here. BBO keeps pining after Biff. Needs to harden up. He's onto the hot chocolates already. One of the poorest half's of footy I've ever seen.

Posted

Frustrating half. We seem the better side but keep bombing it due to conditions to where we are outnumbered.

It's a shocking game of football.

It's not wet, it's just two very poor sides.

dead right andrewwe are so bad hogan should start earning his keep ,young big head,

Sure they haven't been flash, but our delivery (even on a [censored] day like today) could be sooooo much better.

That and manning up their loose players' for a change.

Garlett hasn't had much of the ball, but i love that he's had 7 tackles. Trying to influence the game when not in possession.

He, Brayshaw and Viney seem to be the only ones who actually know how to tackle

So many wasted entries. If we tidy that up we'll be on the way to a win.

Hogan needs to get his hands on the ball. He's having a shocker.

Underrated for us this season, in the top 5 for the league for inside 50 tackles this season.

The umpires aren't the worse thing about this match.

far from it

Worst thing is Ess ease at marking across half back..

Bombers lack confidence. Our forward delivery is rushed and shocking. Should be a 5 goal win. Our forwards are actually putting on a lot of pressure but it's really congested.

This will end up an inverse of last year's result. Essendon dominate everything except the scoreboard but end up losing by a point.

This year it's our turn.

Sometimes you're a windscreen. Sometimes you're an insect. Gotta do as much damage while you're windscreen.

Isolate Hogan and Garlett in the goal square with every one else around the 50 at centre bounces, we are winning most but bombing to a pack where Essendon are usually winning it. Give these two a shot at it.

Has to get a possession first.

Has 3 so far. What's JKH done?...........Oh that's right.

Would love to have him on at the moment though, another small crumbing the inevitable ground ball in our forward line.

Maybe a little too soon, but would anyone else be tempted to sub Hogan now and bring on JKH??? Bold and risky move, probably too much so for Roos.

Bombers lack confidence. Our forward delivery is rushed and shocking. Should be a 5 goal win.

The only thing I'm worried about is that we have a happy knack of helping teams regain confidence.

Worried what impact last week's Darwin heat and humidity will have our ability to run this one out.

Bombers are a player down. We have been flat all day and should run over them. We rested in the last quarter last week anyway so we should be fine :P

Posted

Both teams have a disposal efficiency below 50%?

This could be one of those feedback loops that breaks computers.

"We are more likely to get it if an opponent is kicking it... therefore it makes sense to kick it to one of them whenever we can".

Maybe the players should be instructed to actively target the other team, because that way it will end up with us more...

Ugh.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
