If they are going to kick over a dummy they might think of getting one with arms above its head.  And go real high tech and have the arms waving about.

I was going to include something about this is my report today but forgot! I agree 1000%. What's the point of a dummy if it has no hands? These things seem to be designed for soccer walls and not for AFL footy. A simple redesign with some waving arms couldn't hurt!

    You sure about that, Binman?  If you're gonna use Saty, surely, to be effective,  he needs to be perched on top of a step ladder...!!

    Agreed, I only just outdo one of the witches hats, seems a bit of a silly argument, to be game realistic it would have to wave arms, move side to side and do trash talk, I wonder if Bill Shorten is free?

    Gonna post some pics on here and Insta the quality is not very good but thought I may as well

    have always thought that part of the arms race will include specialised AFL training equipment.

    Could be fun thinking of what they might come up with

    Do they use the machine that shoots the footy out (a la clay pigeon targets) at training?

    Good to know that at this time of year Santa is training the house down. He’s got a hard gig coming up in the near future.

    yes. he came back from the break badly overweight with poor skinfolds. a major time trial looms and will certainly test him in 10 days time

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
