Pert sounds too much like Robert Walls for my liking.

Wall was a Melbourne supporter as a kid.

 

Feels like we have a lot of weapons in the forward half now. Preuss looks like a handful and throw Joel Smith in there, there's a lot for the coaching staff to work with on top of what we already had.

Hunt has been impressive off half back. 

Really pleasing to see. Terrific game so far by Hunt. He looks really composed with ball in hand.

    Yep, in a game where, understandably, players having been getting up to speed, Hunt has been lowering his eyes quite well.

    Pert interview interesting. 

    Speaking about the stream he said fans want content, access and an inside perspective and they are going to provide that this year. Perhaps he hasn't sent the memo to his comms team yet but situation sounds positive

    Unfortunately I don't think Jeffy and JKH will feature much in 2019. I hope I'm wrong. 

    Bit hard on JKH, had plenty of touches and disposal has been ok.

    Garlett showing bugger all so far.

    Hunt’s performance so far looks very encouraging.. the Hunt of old perhaps.

     


    Have just dipped in and out of the Live Stream intermittently. Four players seem to be involved whenever I take a quick look - JKH, VDB, ANB and Hunt.  However, primarily because of the low angle of the cameras, it's almost impossible to work out whether their disposals are productive.

    It is a fantastic atmosphere down here - I’d guess around up to 5000 here?

    Really impressed by Trac and Harmes at ground level, JKH busy in the second term in particular, Preuss excellent in the air, and Hunt running hard but his kicking leaves a bit to be desired, Lewis and Hore very calm and composed down back

    Wouldn't mind seeing some camera work to show the set-ups at centre bounce under the new rules.

    Also, how far can players run for the point kick ins?  I thought there was going to be a big 'square' around the traditional one.  Couldn't see any markings so will the umpires be guessing how far players run?  

    On the new kick-in rule,  Max and Preuss doing well marking from the kick-ins.  It seems we have a set-up down field, depending on who kicks in.  I think we are working well with that new rule.

    That little checked kick by Hunt to find a target inside 50. He looks on this season. Would have blazed away previously.

    How great must it be to have facilities like these.

    We really lag behind the comp big time in that regard. Hope our leadership fix this soon.

    What a great training ground this is.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
