Gawn swings his foot and leg in an arc to the left when kicking for goal. He should lead his kicking action from the knee with a bent leg and smoothly extend the knee joint when making contact with the ball. 

But he kicks straight with his left foot because he needs to concentrate a bit more. Simply replicate how he kicks with his left. But of course, that’s way too easy.

James Harmes! A bit more humble pie as a late night snack for several Demonlanders, who wanted him banished. You know who you are.

It’s amazing how much better he looks when all the self applied tickets get washed off in the rain.  As I’ve said before, if he takes the Dusty Martin posters off his bedroom wall and plays like James Harmes, he can be an asset. I suspect somebody has got into his ear and to his credit, he has listened.

Absolutely nailed it 

How does Vandenburg get chance after chance. Was slow and dumb and missed two definite shots that should have been kicked 

This idea of " lets play vanderenberg for his aggression " . Amazes me as old-style thinking.

A player has to contribute. Look at Oliver. He's as tough as he comes but what a contributor.

I don't believe vandenBerg is in our best 22. However, any player that gets an odd game here or there is likely to struggle for any number of reasons including, not being in rhythm with team-mates, lack of so-called match fitness, and possibly nerves. Last night, vandenBerg looked like a player not quite understanding the pace of the game. Understandable when you haven't played regular senior football. If he were to stay in the side, I would expect him to improve.

 

Well done Joeboy.

From a set shot, Maxie should run in for his kick at an angle to the right that will neutralise his natural swing to the left. Not hard to figure out and implement.

I think he would also, but just at whose expense?  He had 4 tackles and had an inpact in that regard.

You can never doubt his endeavour.

Petty doesnt do much wrong. Very good player as is Bowser who will be the most inexperienced player to play in a Demon premiership in at least 60 years.

 

Enjoy the next 6 weeks fellas.
