"we are easy to play against"

"Judge us on our performance... Next week" 

"I am relishing [censored] taking a team from the prelim to bottom 4 in 7 game, it's a great learning curve" 

"We will learn from this" 

"This is not our brand and we need to get better"

Spot on.  Same old rubbish.  What you won’t here  

 - We are lazy

- we cannot take a mark inside 50

- we handball to no one

- we have no grit or hard edge

- we create turnovers 

- we thought it would just happen

For those bitching about Goodwin and his soundbites to questions that are posed to him... I would love to see your own responses to them (seriously, write them down)...because I suspect there is nothing he can say that would appease any of you? 

I'd hate to be a coach and be under scrutiny publicly week in week out....and having to justify/explain/mansplain reasons for a loss...

Exactly.  He plays a straight bat to the media, and so he should.  It will always be that way.

The only team we beat last year out of those we’ve played was essendrug. We lost to swans. Looks like we had an easy draw.

We beat St Kilda.

I want to thank Demonology for inspiration:

Put relative speed on the wings (not Lewis and Jones).

Jones HB

Lewis hiding as the anchor

Hibbo up the ground.

TMac defence.

Spargo and Wagner out.

 

I finally found the angle-grinder to get the magnets off the whiteboard.

His response...

- we look good until another team takes the field

-scoring has never been a priority

-the new rules heave hurt us, I’ve been aiming for a rugby style game and this new ‘football thing’ has really hurt us

“We’ll review this incredibly strongly as a club. 

We’re hurting as a club. The coach the players and obviously the supporters.

We’ll continue to work incredibly hard to rectify the areas of our game such as forward connection and defensive running.

Blah blah.”

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
