    We're kicking to a designated spot as if we had three talls. 

    THIS!

    No point in waiting for a positive comment during the game call from these sheet callers.

    NO forward structure but ahead. 
    Ridiculous.

    The heat on Oliver in this thread is quite unexpected.

    you must be joking

    Stanley Laurel Harmes and Oliver Hardy show is not amusing.

    Clear message at half time...

    Dump the Hollywood nonsense now!

    Merett 21 uncontested possessions. Shut him down.

    But regroup & have a big 2nd half where hopefully we kick straight & roll home

    We have to shut him down I agree. 

    It would help if his direct opponent around the ground (Brayshaw) completed some form of defensive gut running.  I saw Merrett compete and win a ball on the wing and run forward whilst Brayshaw hung back.  Merrett hit a team mate on the forward flank on the chest, fan past for the handball receive and nearly lace a player at full forward all whilst Gus was 70m away.

    All the great defensive work not being rewarded in our forward 50. Frustrating to watch. ?

    Game day threads are always a head scratcher.

    Oliver has continued what he started last week at half time. Take the game on, dont be afraid to take risks to generate run.

    When it doesnt work it looks terrible as he gets caught. But at least he is taking the game on the way the coach wants.

    I understand that some supporters will attack him for it when it doesnt come off and claim him saviour when it does.

    demons getting ahead of themselves picking a small forward line. Fritch has done well and so has mcDonald but they have always had another tall taking the oppositions big men as well. The next half will show what sort of team we are , are we fighters and worthy of being on top of the ladder or are we back to failing against weak opposition as we did against adelaide and collingwood.

    Heat of the moment comments ought to be taken with a grain of salt.

    Anyone else think that goal kicked by Jones was already in the front row when his boot connected? What a joke to show a blurred ball on the replay as apposed to the real time. Blatant effing cheating. 

    Clearly a goal.

    Kozzie needs recalibration at Casey 

    Do we put him into the middle to shadow Merret?

    Leave Harnes in there also.

    Tracc to HF.  Viney relieves Tracc at HF and plays a bit of time in the middle on occasions ...Kozzie goes forward again when he does

    Kozzie needs to pass the ball off more often especially when having set shots from an angle or a long way out.

    Well I must be in the minority I don’t think Ben Brown would have made the slightest bit of difference so far.

    I thought we lifted in the 2nd when Oliver started to dominate.

    • 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.

    • 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.
