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

    Confidence is not high here.

    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! 

    Fingers crossed we deliver the ball properly EH but our forwards need to play as forwards are meant to play ... leading to space,  multiple leads (at speed), defensive pressure,  play in front,  kick straight etc etc

    But our clearance work needs to be clean & efficient.  Scrubbing the ball forward or banging it forward won't work

    It all starts from the dominant ruckman ... and our schemes & set plays from the tap.

    What's the reasoning there?

    Geelong's got Ford in that same sport.

    Zurich still on the front for us.

    A game we had to win, were favourites and didn't come to play. Whereas we're not favourites today don't really rate Geelong and if we bring the right attitude we should be right in it. Hopefully winning.

    Brayshaw with no helmet? Not sure about that? ?

    Two kicks to the hot spot (both correct kicks to make) but no tall forwards to contest.

    Nice.

    Contrast this to Geelong’s first goal.

     

    Another [censored] waste of inside 50s. Geelong one inside 50 and goal. 
    Will Goodwin ever fix this?!


    Melbourne football right there. Repeat rubbish forward entries, goes the other way defence a mess, easy goal to the opposition.

     

    Lever caught ball watching.....

    Count the easy goals for them. That’s 1. 

    Lever misread that and didn't go up. 

    On the one hand in happy that there weren't 3 players trying to spoil. 

    On the other I'm not happy that it was Lockhart vs a ruck


    Horrendous defence. They had three floating back to the goalsquare.

    Suggests our forward press was too high and once they got through, it was too easy.

    Dangerous signs.

    Cats implementing a transition and MCG masterclass just then. We couldn't get near it

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
