Bennell - great goal harley

yes we can be frustrating but I have read Sparrow is limited and no good, for a kid who has played a handful of games, he has energy. His time may come.


Apart from that nonchalant and classy goal Benell just couldn't get into the game. 

I reckon we have to take the risk and play him regularly to let him work into form

Harmes. A better game

I thought so too. He was in our top 4 players in the first half when everything wasn’t looking rosy.

Agree re Bennell. For me, this year is all about getting up to speed again.

we basically played one short.  unless he commits to put his body on the line, I'm not sold on playing him

Agreed DubDee, it's been a great story so far but now it's time for Harley to start get involved a bit more. His aversion to laying a tackle is worrying. The honeymoon is nearly over.

And Harmes was our chief intercepter. Not bad for 'a guy playing out of position'


         Oliver    Is a WINNER!

        GUS       Has the goods

        Petrac   The real deal

        L J          Is our future     

       Weid       Starting to give

      May         Is The Rock!

     Viney        The Mighty BULL

      Gawn       The Great Leader

      Sparrow   On his Way 

      The Rest   Did their job.

 

If you're waiting for Bennel to start laying tackles you might want to adjust your expectations. Even at his best he laid an average of one tackle a half. Which is what he did tonight. 

He def needs to get more touches. Could have thrown him into the cente or a wing in that last quarter. He needs to build his fitness, pace and ball hunting instinct. We dont need another hard nut tackler/body on line. That's not his strengths.

Brayshaw.... won the game

(His last quarter performance was why he is in the team... it was a little more than putting in an appearance)

Tomlinson.... why draft him

Oliver   im a gun

Brayshaw   im back baby

May  yeah I'm unbeatable 

Gawn    follow me lads

Lever    fook u Adelaide 

Viney    me foots better

Fritta    kick to me

Weid    im getting good 

Langdon   let me run

Tracc     I just cruise

Jako    I love footy

Melk    im just starting

Salem   I have skill

Sparrow   yes I can

Jones    that's the [censored]

Bennell   just warming up

Hibbo  need help boys

Tom    easy does it

Harmes   good footballer me

Anb    perfect tackle that

Avb   bloody hard head

Lockhart   intercept , crumb, kick

Did we lose by 10 goals, Weidman, is kick 2 goals a game, Hogan's career average,doing everything you want a Ford to do crash packs and kick the goals when I had the opportunities.

Post 17 above gives a good assessment Dub

lets play him more so we can see his class

He looks... painfully slow too.

If he can't go full speed, why are we playing him?  He's clearly hampered by his body or his mind right now.

Fritsch - stop leading 2 boundryline
More than 3 words but it's driving me nuts

 

 

Couldn’t agree more. I’ve said it a thousand times. He leads too wide and it’s either spoilt or goes out of bounds. He should use the corridor more.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
