Why were Stretch ...anb and spargo picked......10 touches bw them?

Its not their poor performance but more the prediction of it.

I don't understand how this builds confidence or momentum putting such a [censored] side on the paddock

And people shot down my thread about needing a rebuild. Love for those people to tell us now where our improvement is going to come from.

I wasn’t one of them but my thoughts are that some tough calls need to be made.

We can’t carry Jones next year. 

Hopefully we get pick 2 and use it, not to be on traded. 

Trade Petracca (I know I’ve said this before, apologies....)and package him up with a future pick and make a bold play for some class off half back to replace Hibberd.

Draft in not one but two small indigenous fwds. We need some energy and creativity  up fwd.

Not all the answers but a start.

19 actually - and both way ahead of a lot of other players who you could have named. But didn't.

It has rained a little and preuss is useless 

Except Preuss took Alir Alir our of the game completely last time and managed to kick a couple of goals too, so credit where it is due

After 30 years of continuous membership I am not renewing. Had enough. Turned over to the cricket and that’s no better.

Not gunna barrack for the Tassie Devils then ?

That where we're heading.

Something else I’ve noticed about our players is how often they go to ground in one on one situations. Once you go to ground you’re immediately stuffed if you don’t win it. 

Is it bad core strength or something that’s being taught?

I agree . But then i watched preuss play his last game and he couldn’t even pick the ball up

Been like that for years.

In all honesty is Goodwin safe for next year? Yes there will be a big payout but the club is burning money with this rubbish. Pert was bemoaning there was still 12000 MCC members who hadn’t signed up as MFC members this year, wait till next year and you can bet Jag will be running away at the speed of light too.

Playing on at all costs against the best tackling team in the league?

Tactically we are pretty basic.

I reckon Goodwin would be a good local footy coach, “just be strong around the footy boys!” 

Thats his answer to everything

Tackle difference 17-9 this qtr, 44-27 for the 1/2 Second last in the comp in tackle difference. Last month lost inside 50s by 16, last in the Comp. Goodwin problem is with you as your game plan sucks! 

He has destroyed the foundations of Roos & turned this list into a rabble only 3 years after he took over! 

Utter disgrace that this guy continues to coach our club into oblivion once again!

ZERO CONFIDENCE IMPARTED BY COACHES AND LEADERS.

If that is correct BA then the contrast of output / quality is astonishing between quarters.

Goody looks completely lost for answers in the box and shows no emotions at any point.  I would be furious at some of the passages of play as a team and from many individuals tonight. 

Get to the bench, attempt to at least show them / highlight where they are going wrong immediately while the errors are still fresh and highlighting the alternative ways available to improve as a team and individual.

Totally agree.

Pre game pep talk would have been tricky

 

alright you lot don’t try too hard we have a number 2 pick on the line

yeah no worries we’ve been doing that all year 

Special guest Mark Neeld gave another world class pre game rev up.

Thats about where we are at right now in terms of on field action.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.
