Sounds very NFL.

There is an obvious correlation but if the NFL never had any set plays or we didn't know about it the playbook for our sport would be needed anyway

Stands to reason mentality. 

Ice hockey has a lot of set plays as well ... same as soccer,  League & Union.

I’m not keen on the team selections. But shall reserve my judgements until post game. 
 

Confidence is not high here.

Nice day for footy, I take it there’s a decent crowd gathering at the ‘G? 

The seagulls are not social distancing. Selfish bastards.

    And if we dominate from the stoppages you'd like to think that just by the pure numbers involved,  we'd have enough clean and crisp clearances to turn that into an advantage

    In 2018 we did that to a certain degree but in 2019 our clearances were often without any purpose whilst being delivered to a dysfuntional forward line

    So where does the braintrust exist ...amongst the personnel involved or the 2 blokes (Plapp & Matthews) charged with organising our midfield and stoppages work? 


    A few questions will be answered today. Are we still the same side that lost  last round 2017 or can we emulate 2018? Does Goodwin have a plan B ?

    Have we put someone else on the front now or just moved Zurich?

    Hmm... Somebody mentioned Collingwood had their foj sponsor in that spot too...

    Reckon the AFL have allowed that spot on the jumper for more sponsorship revenue

    What's the reasoning there?

    Geelong's got Ford in that same sport.

    Zurich still on the front for us.

    Will certainly be watching how we deliver the ball into our forward 50. We have gone with a smallish forward setup so we better not be bombing long to the square!

    Huge experience advantage for Geelong  and we have a very young side.

    Will make it even more sweet when we beat them.

    Looks like Jayden Hunts long sleeve top does not have the sponsor on the back.

    Must have been done pretty quickly

    Really???

    mmmm, sense of humour switch on zero today.

    I can understand, we’re just visiting, others own the site and can get sued but geez that was gold.

    Goodwin in the interview on Channel 7 just now said we need to win the stoppages, get it in our forward half and keep it there.

    Our 2018 mindset remains.

    God damn, please tell me that isn’t the norm? Going to have tops like the bloody NRL where you can’t see the top due to all the stupid sponsors plastered all over it.

    The blue rectangle over the red is putrid.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
