Over handballing

Featured Replies

We need to use handballing to create play. But often we handball around in a circle or handball to a player under pressure. Oliver and Viney in particular, are great at getting the footy but make dumb choices. 
 
1/2 time today 

Dees 186 possessions- 106 handballs. A lot to players standing still  

Tigers 165 possessions- 71 handballs. Yet their handball is running and creative. 

 

How did they get their first goal? Over use of stupid handball and then we [censored] it up. One, two and then move it on so at least if we give it up, which we will given our forward entries,  we give it up down the field.

Panic footy... breeds the same at the next link.

Oliver has to slow down a fraction, and deliver the ball properly.   And because he is so good at getting to the drop of ball,  and getting hands on it,  our other mids competing with him do the same; from Oli's lead.

We winning the footy in the middle,  but losing the war from there,  because of panic manic footy.

 

Its been starting with Oli's untidiness with ball use.  It appears like its all about him.

 

His carelessness with the ball, is IMO,  self centered,

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • GAMEDAY: Gold Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
