Balic had a bright start to the season and while he has played okay for the last few weeks his game seems to have plateaued. He needs to move it up a notch to give himself real chance.

Looking forward to dominant second half of the season from him.

 

These umpires are making rubbish push in the back calls. No way that was a free to Balic.

 

I like the look of Petty. Baker has a crack, as does Balic.

Tyson, Frost and Bugg wont be returning anytime soon.

They are really missing the presence of Garlett and Tim.Smith. Weideman doing nothing.

Surely the absence of both Stretch and Garlett means that one of them, presumably Jeffy, is playing on Monday instead of Hannan?


2 last quarter goals from Balic papers over the cracks that he's had a stinker today.

Also just the 13 possessions for Hunt. His career really treading water right now

Gee, Rawlings is impressive- wouldn’t mind betting he gets a senior gig one day. Great to see Casey play the same high pressure contested footy as our firsts. Everyone is singing from the same songbook at last.

Yeah Chook. Been thinking the same thing over the last 6 weeks. It's starting to click into place

Hannan has a fitness test on Sunday IIRC

PS... sorry as Beetle points out below it's Melksham

Melksham has to pass a fitness test for his ankle, hence stretch not playing.


If Weed had a bad first half, this last quarter he's been the opposite.

Balic was signed to a one year contract.

For those who’ve seen him at VFL level this year, do we extend?

Watched about 50%. Answer is yes for me.

Not for mine. He's one of those Viv Michie/Ben Newton/Shane Valenti type of players who will display quite a few tricks at VFL level but inevitably won't bridge that gap to AFL standard


Final siren and a 23 point win for the Demons.

Yes good depth for us.

Weid could have had a few. Had two lace out passes that he was cut in front of by JKH and Balic. Quiet first half but worked his way into the game nicely. 

Was Hunt tagged? Just really felt he couldn’t get into the game at all. 

And on the balic debate. He’ll be extended. Looks too good to just let him leave. 

 

Baker, Petty, Spargo and Fritsch...  Jason Taylor has cleaned up at the draft once again.

Tyson played like he really wants back in the senior team.

Casey will win the flag.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
