just bounce the bloody thing....

Haven't the AFL changed that rule yet?

 

Have to admit, the hype around us is similar to that of the Eagles in 2005. They'd had an average year in 2004 and finished 11-11 in 9th place. Almost every prediction in the pre season had them finishing top 4 in 2005.

I wonder, though, whether the club thinks this is considered an "acceptable risk". In other words, the club thinks the attacking gameplan will score more goals than will be given up going the other way. As long as we score more than the opposition, I don't really care how they get their goals. 

If last year is anything to go by, i think you maybe right. 

There was no perceptible change to match day tactics when we had those lapses.

yep, they sure were Flying HIGH around 2005.

 

'acker' couldn't understand it?   The Eagles running power. How strong it had become, almost overnight.

And they finished second, played in a GF and lost by 4 points?

And all teams (particular the lower ranked teams) will think they're a real chance against us and bring their best.  The North Melbournes, Brisbanes, Carltons.  We need to smash these teams off the park so they don't get their confidence up when they play us.  They always seem to be 'on' against us because they know we are gettable.  That needs to change before we are a real threat.  Hopefully this year!

We were not able to crush teams in 2017 either. This has to change in 2018. Winning is one thing. Being ruthless and not letting up is where we have to take our game.

Agree. The great teams show no mercy and smash lower clubs. They also manage to win when not playing at their best.

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
