Great analysis guys. One of the problems of a Monday night podcast at 830 is it clashes with On The Couch. All caught up now though. Didn't realise it was on tonight until 11 this evening.

Sorry about that. The LIVE aspect of the show is really secondary. It is a podcast after all.The reason I decided to do a podcast LIVE was to have the ability to get people to call in.

This week Monday suited better because of the Friday game followed by another Friday game. I didn’t want too much time to have passed from the last game and too little time for people to listen before the next one.

Was thinking about our forward line compared to our last best season in 2018.

We used to score much higher..

Tom Mac 50
Hogan 48
Melksham 32
Nibbler 27
Hannan 22
Trac 19
Watts Garlett Fritz 18
Jones Gus Max Spargo Oliver 14

Thats a lot of high goal scoring. Surprised by Anbs and Melkshams.

Great improvement from Fritta. Trac is down.

I know our defence is keeping sides from scoring but I would love us to boot more goals.

This year we have Tmac and Fritta tracking really well but we need a few more to impact.

Kozzies been good but Im not sure who else is going to dominate. Maybe Spargo and Anb.

Would be great if Sam or Bb would step up so as to not have our backline work so hard all the time.

Further to this we are not seeing the bleeding of unaswered goals that we used to. I would assume that the tightening up our defensive game is going to have the effect of lower scores offensively.

We are controlling ball movement a lot more then we before. Games are less manic. So many pinpoint 15m chips out of pressure situations. And when we pull the trigger its thought through compared to those old long random bombs into the fwd line

We are slowing down our oppositions' movement and they are struggling to get quick inside fifties. Might not always be as exciting to watch with us scoring less goals but it will sure increase the longevity of most Demonlanders.

Great podcast boys, thanks.

Also thanks to @binman for the First Crack on Kayo recommendation. It’s my new favourite footy program. 
It is brilliant to see that wide down the ground video. Much easier to see how all the parts of the machine work together. And work they do. Also easy to see how it would fall apart if just one player wasn’t doing their part.
That sort of commentary is the antithesis of B.Ts inane nonsense

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    PREGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons head back on the road for their fifth interstate trip this season when they head up to Brisbane to take on the Lions under lights on Friday night at the Gabba. Who comes in and who goes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    The Demons almost blew a six goal lead and ultimately hung on to win by three points over the North Melbourne Kangaroos at the MCG and have temporarily jumped back into the Top 8.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
