Tom McDonald's kicking - Could go anywhere

 

(Seriously. wtf is his action. He kicked an inside-out torpedo goal. He couldn't do that if he tried).

And yet he did.

Frost did a good job attacking, but lets not shy away from the fact that if Daniher kicked straight the results would have been vastly different.

Frost has to get better at defending. I'm sick of defenders playing like millionaires. I don't care if you gain 900kms a game, if your opponent is having 8 shots on goal! 

This is why Jetta is so important to our backline. He actually DEFENDS!

Reckon we need to allow some slack Beezle to our perceived  underperfomers. It's team game and we supporters will never know what the coaches instructions are. 

Yeah...youre right..

A bag of of excuses and gold stamps all round. Why stop there ?

Dispense with scoring, lets not have winners, or best, or anything that might call to question or seriously dehumanise as they are people and have feelings. Its about inclusion... joining together in fellowship...kum by yah ....

Sorry Ernest. Its a competitive sport whose metric is winning. If that was the only role for JKH then that itself is questionable.

The 2nd arrow to a fwd's quiver is defence. His FIRST is to score.

Given we were stretched for avenues to goal he added NOTHING ...again.

Why are many struggling with this.

In this team, it doesn't matter who scores the goals, why we have so many gimmes in the goal square

JKH was singled out for praise by Goody for his pressure, some on here need to get over it, if Goody picks JKH again next week, means he played his role, same with ANB

Unfortunately Saty even good coaches make mistakes eg playing the Weid for two weeks too long at the expense of playing Pedersen.

Lewis - goal of week?

Team - no one injured

Daniher - one goal six

And in the unique world of AFL maths Daniher 1.6 = Daniher 2.0

And what if Frost stayed on JD and didn't attack, would we have won still?

I think Frosty is great in a shutdown role, and equally as good when he is attacking but what i believe he needs to work on is when to run off and when not too.

Feel like his kicking has improved a bit too.

No he wasn't.  Goodwin was asked about our small forwards and getting the right mix and he mentioned many of them.  He admitted that JKH didn't get much of the ball but was happy with his pressure.  He did not single him out at all.  You're a liar.

That's a bit rough Wise. Just different interpretations of what and how it was said, by you and Saty.

Oh sorry, mentioning by name is not singling out, of course we can't have Goody praising JKH, goes against the mob sentiment on here

I won't single you out when I say I find some of the experts on here laughable

The Bernie Vince kick out with 10:41 to go in the second quarter has to stand as a low point.

Watched it on replay to see if there was an excuse but no..... one MFC player ringed by five Bombers around 30 metres out

The only thing I can think of is that is that Vince made a mistake re depth perception in that while the MFC player appeared free there was time for the zone to drop in.

Love him or hate him Shaw for GWS has the kick in down to a fine art. If you can get the 10-15 metre post goal square run you upset the zone

    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
