In the first four rounds back all of our games are twilight matches. Should we be doing some training at night rather than exclusively in the morning?

 

The players will revolt if you take away their afternoon nap

    Yes, and particularly when the team will be announced.   say Thursday/Friday nights.?

    With the industry trying to cut costs everywhere you must wonder who is paying the Cats power bill? Maybe Danger has put his hand in his pocket.

    Geelong have been doing this for years. Driving home from work the lights are always on when their upcoming game is a night fixture. 
    We need a proper base/home if we are to become elite.

    More often than not that's their VFL team.

    Maybe they've installed solar panels and a suitable battery as part of one of their many upgrades which would mke the power free. (And if they haven't, why not? Grandstands have lots of suitable real estate to instal solar panels.)

    Let's face it, with the list reductions, loss of income and pay cuts that are going to take place from 2021, it might see the return of players needing to have a job during business hours, and will be made to train at night.

    Seriously though, I'm doubtful of it returning to that type of scenario, but it will be interesting to see how it all pans out.

    Maybe they are LED's,  as well.

    • 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.
