12mins into the first term equal scores on 1-2-8

Hunt dominating if the radio is anything to go by.

 

Ongoing commentary of how Frost, J Smith, Garlett, Keilty, Pedo, Hunt are going much appreciated

I’ve been a bit surprised about Smith’s name being thrown up. Firstly Joel is still trying to get back to His best footy after some nasty injuries but mostly that Joel is a rebounding half back, not a key defender. 

I’d think having only 1 tall defender in won’t be able to stack up against any decent forward line, you need a minimum 2 Key Talls down back. 

The 3 I named are all tall defenders.

I've been surprised with that as well,  Re ZSmith,  thinking he was a flanker, and not having seen Casey for 2 years.

Hunt gets drilled into the fence free kick his way. Bit of niggle in this game


Dec nearly the spoil of the century but couldn’t quite pull it off

Oskar Baker just copped a spray from Rawlings who opened the coaches box window and yelled at him to swap opponents. The lack of discernible atmosphere here meant Baker turned and heard the full effect of the message!

echoing the slug,  is he?

 

Pedo dominating all over the ground. Both he and Frost have both latched onto huge torps.

Pedo has 2.2 and balic 1 goal

Went to see Casey v Frankston the other day. I worry a little about Oskar's brain.

pedo for tim Smith pls

Willy get one on the siren 1/4 Time Casey 4-4-28 to Willy 3-3-21

3 talls defnders pretty quiet, Frost getting to a lot of contests but not doing much.

Pedo and Balic great, as is Tyson Stretch and Hunt. 

Joel Smith a couple of important touches, maybe im wrong and he will get the gig after all

Only if injured. Tim has been an eye opener in his round the ground pressure. Pedersen is more a poor man's Tom McD.

With all the poo thrown at Pedo over the years I’d say he would rank being called a ‘poor mans Tommy Mac’ as quite the compliment

Agree... I was not meaning to belittle Pedersen. On his present form he would walk into several AFL sides.

Coach singled out special praise for Tyson's work that qtr in the huddle. Pre huddle he asked Goodwin for his thoughts and the first thing Goody mentioned to him was the way the rucks were doing. Looks like the plan is to rotate the 3 of them flip King and Pedo on meese all day to wear him down.

Rawlings also made mention of Whirlpool kicks into the forward line with crumbers at 10&2. I'm assuming that's a cluster of talls to congregate 20 out from goal.

Balic is playing as an out and out full forward today too btw

Is Weideman playing ?

I have been listening and haven't heard his name.

Pity as it would be a delicious irony were he to have a blinder today and another on on QB against the Filth.

And getting plenty of shots on goal.    5 already I believe.

Yes is - listening to the radio and they are mentioning him but he isnt marking or kicking. But not sure if he is crashing packs.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
