If Tyson was able to improve his disposal, he would become a real weapon. Always seems to have leather poisoning.

Not sure which bit some don't get, yes Tyson butchers now and again, but he gets his hands on the ball, he is an important part of our midfield

Pretty pleased with that second qtr. Not a great day for forwards but competing really well. Watts looks in better touch, has had a hand in a couple of the goals. 

Melksham, Oliver, Tyson, Hunt (in that second qtr) killing it.

Trengove and JKH pretty ineffective.

Need to hold them in the third, throw a spare man behind the play (hell 2 even).

10 goals to 4 kicking with the wind. Need to do something.

need to push them wide as they come into the fifty and thus limit the scoring from a percentage viewpoint. Need Watts to play back centre corridor and just clog up the space. Even if he doesn't get a kick he will do his job if they are forced wide.

Tough conditions which has brought us down to their level. They are working harder and our tackling has been poor. Need more from Viney and our second string mids (Tyson and Oliver playing their role) and some hard work and controlled decisions from our backs next quarter.

Aside from Tyson who is going to stand up.  Jesse, Jack v and or Jack w.

Watts needs to start crashing a few packs. He is well rested from last week.

I think it might be Garlett to kick the goals. I'm tipping 5 for him.

The attitude towards JKH and Tyson in this thread is very interesting. People either really like or really hate what those two players are bringing today.

Angry face if you think they suck. Like if you think they've been amongst our better players.

My hope for the second half....
 

Someone kicks for goal with Brown standing the mark doing that stupid dance (like when Salo was kicking for goal).

They proceed to falcon him full strength in the face, collect the crumbs and then proceed to run into an open goal.

Please T Mac in defence for the 3rd Q to try and stop the NM talls getting a miss match in size which was very effecting in the 1st.

Tyson is a ball magnet. No doubt about it.

His disposal isn't always great to say the least.

JKH is s still developing. He is better now than previous games.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
