pedo does the instinctual things - marking, quick booming kicks into space, attacking the contest - so well

but every time he has a single moment to 'think' about it he generally mucks it up pretty badly

Not alone there DA

You should change your name to Pollyanna or delusional.

why for saying our gameplan is not as it was 11 years ago junior...  you must start taking your angry pills jMc new playing list.

And new coach means new game-styles, which also will change as the new coach keeps up with trends.

Spargo getting involved this last quarter when we need it. His disposal has been iffy, but he doesn't have much to kick to with that clogged up forward line. He knows how to find the pill and has fire in him. Definitely something to work with there. 

On the other hand, Dion Johnstone struggles to get involved in any form. Doesn't find the ball, doesn't lay many tackles, just jogs around aimlessly. The nicest thing I can say about him as a footballer is he is present and playing. Seems a bust and clear delist material alongside the injured Vandenburg and McKenna.

Not good that it seems like there's not too much to work with. Particularly from the guys who've been in the system for a few years. Baker, Petty and Spargo at least a little cause for optimism. Guys around the JKH age range... really disappointing.

This shows the underlying problem at Casey and Melbourne.  We clog up our forward line - but are hopeless at getting it to a free to a player for a shot.  We leave lots of space over the back - but dont run both ways or have the legspeed to manage.

There are some serious issues with the gameplan and the personnel asked to play it at both levels.  Manic pressure by hawks last week, Tigers 2nds this week brought it all undone.  Clog it up in our forward line and run the other way fast and you cut the demons open.  Seems like an easy game plan to beat.  Until we get personnel that can find the loose man outside, Have players that are fast enough the other way, and we can sustain intense pressure, we have (and will have) plenty of problems.

Well Rawlings is supposed to be channeling the same game plan

Hows that going for us I wonder.

At least the Magoos didn't chuck it in.

Spargo, Pedders, Munro, Gent, Hannan (in patches) have done ok.

Outside of Pedders there was no big man presence / marking around the ground today apart from a few tap outs to advantage.  Soldo dominated.

They seemed all at sea up the sharp end....and then it stopped going there.

Tigers got to rebound too easy as game wore on.

Hmmm

If today was a good example of the game plan we are trying to instill across the list then i hope he has a plan B.

And i'm not saying it was BZ....just saying

Other than Pedo and Spargo, none of the Melbourne listed players showed much. JKH and some of the others who have been around a few years are pure list cloggers who are being kept around for contractual and emergency injury situations. Further culling of the list is needed as we severely lack class. We have far too few good kicks still after all these years somehow!

Casey seemed to try hard, but with a crowded forward line struggled to make the most of opportunities when going forward. Exactly the same as the AFL team, and it shows our gameplan does not work and needs to change.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
