Great little passage of play. Max King pushed off an opponent and took nice overhead mark on the wing. Turned quickly and saw Weed leading to the wing/ flank hotly pursued by his opponent. King delivered a 25-30m low dart pass that Weed took down low at his shins by getting both forearms under it and taking a diving chest mark. Great pass but even getter collect. Weeds showing his skills down low as well as overhead today. Unfortunately the next pass from Weed was a turnover, but after great teamwork from King and Weed.

I watched the last quarter of the pies vfl game and after a nice mark by the weed said to the fella next to me that he'll be pretty special once he bulks up. The fella said he could borrow some of his

It was a  hard game to watch and times as the game lacked any kind of flow, repeat stoppages with little breaks were the theme of the day.  Both teams pushed the half forwards up the ground trying to

Spencer on the siren.....kicks a...goal! 19.11.125 to 2.6.18.  and for you Weiderman fans out there (like myself). It is Weiderman 4.0.24 to the Northern Blues 2.6.18.

One of Frosty's 'up' moves- great collect down low, short and accurate pass over the top of defenders to Casey player's advantage who ran in for a goal.

Is it greedy for us to be hoping that Weideman could really be as good as he is looking like he might be?

 

Greedy? The kid was in the top 10 of the country. I'd be dissapointed if he didn't kick on

Newton running, bouncing goal. 11 goals up. 11.6.72 to 0.6.6. 

Weiderman having a blinder in conditions that aren't good for talls.

Newton shines again!  Collect off a scrambled ball, had a good look for forwards, nice pass to Weed who was contested and the ball went past both untouched and rolled through for a goal. 

Newton is creating a few Laws of his own today.

29 minutes into the third and Dylan Buckley manufactures a goal for the Blues (not sure who kicked it off the ground). We've got in back in our 50 now to try and get that one back.

Not sure what to make of these beltings. Is the competition that lopsided? I can never help but wonder how this affects the development of our seconds players when they play against witches hats.

Doesn't hurt to play in winning sides and get some confidence.

Of course. I reckon being challenged is more important though.

You can only play against the opposition you are drawn against? Dons are 4th. Williamstown are 1st (we lost to them though), Collingwood are 9th, and Frankston are no longer the cellar dwellers that we beat. We are not doing too badly and it's not like we are against bad opposition. Cannot wait until we play some of the bottom teams.

If we beat Sandy easily next week, we have arrived and a serious chance for the flag.

It's a fair point but:

a) low pressure situations allow you to execute game plans exactly as planned,  with success (as long as the coaches enforce their strict adherence and the players aren't allowed to get sloppy); and

b) winning builds comraderie amongst the playing group and winning expectations as well. 

 

These things mean that when a player does play well and eventually goes up he a) knows exactly what to do and exactly how to play the role and b) he expects to keep winning.  He will need to adjust to the pace and pressure,  but that is easier when you are brimming with confidence.

They will get plenty of that as well.

I just love the way we seem to be developing our players now.

Our list is getting so much better each year, with good players not guaranteed a game.

I guess that is what others said of us over recent years.

You can only beat those who come out to play against you.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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.

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
