GAMEDAY: Rd 06 v Gold Coast

Hannan has been harassing the Gold Coast defenders for mine. It doesn't get counted as a tackle, but it's important all the same.

Melksham doesn't do ANY of this. He needs to go.

    commentators talking about Weids poor body positioning. Scratching my head about what he's been learning since he entered the system.  Anyway..maybe the goal will kick start him. He has that  onfield lost feeling about him which never fills me with confidence.

    His disposal isn't great but I love his running. Always runs forward to provide an option after dishing it off.

    Too many passengers.. we are dominating but these passengers are stopping us from killing them . Lockhart melksham avb brayshaw lever jetta hibberd hannan pickett

    Hannah, AVB and Melksham need to lift.

    Melksham puts in another stinker then surely he is on the chopping block.

    Haven't read any of this thread so if already said I missed it.

    It'll probably been an unpopular opinion/observation, but does anyone else think Bennell plays like he doesn't want contact? He had a couple of chances to go hard but pulled back. Also when tackling he just sticks his arms out rather than fully commit with body and they run right through him.

    Yes I'm sure I'll get given a list of names who have their own moments of poor play. I've just been particularly focussed on Bennell this game.

    Interesting one Wellsy, I thnk he is always about 1-2m too forward to mark it... unless it's zinging in at chin height.

    But... I kicked a ball for the first time in a couple of years with my 4.5 yo and some mates this morning, and found I was always dropping the kick about 2m short... I have done that fairly consistently since I played juniors... maybe it's a spatial thing and cannot actually be coached out of him.

    What I mean is - he knows intellectually what to do, but neurologically, it just 'feels' better the way he is doing it at the time...

    anyway...some drunkn thoughts.

    He's been in the right spots spilled a few but had definately straightned us up

    @binman currently frothing at the mouth at O Mac's first half.

    Just a standard OMac game.

    And by the by i wouldn't mind revisit the discussion of who is better kick Trac or Omac!

    Melks needs to put in or else he's out.

    Strong second Q. 4 goals to 2. we've turned the game around somewhat.

    Langdon been good. Viney better. keep up the pressure of that second Q and we should win

    Have noticed it, but willing to let is slide considering he is the only player that can pick the ball up cleanly.

    have seen this and it'll come - but he's also being more defensive in terms of blocks and a few more team things

    don't need him laying big tackles (I'm sure it'll come with time), right now we need his class and skills - which is building

    but i certainly get what you mean, he's being cautious and wants some outside ball

    • 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.

      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.
