We can play much better, whether Geelong can is another question

    Back to basics

    We got away with breaking through tackles against brissy but it's not the go tonight 

    Will the umps keep it consistent and pay the tackles the other way?

    Gee our backline has the wobbles at the moment.


    They’re smashing us on rebound. Their kicking skills are good. We’re holding up fine in the air, but once it’s on the ground or running we’re struggling. Missing Hunt or Rivers to lock down more on those types of attacks. Hibberd is ok, but Bowey and Salem aren’t great at defending. They’re both offensive options.

    Are we playing who can hold the ball the longest?

    get rid of it on the first option. May might as well have not played at this point. 
     

     

    We need to take the first option, not fend off Hollywood style and get caught....how many times this quarter?

    Go back to the VFL Bedford

    Rough after one contest that suited the bigger guy. Let’s see Tuohy get him if Bedford gets it in space.

    Cats are experienced and strong bodied  team. Need to stop trying to break tackles and take Hollywood options. Back to basics, first option football when the pressure is on.

    Steven May is genuinely killing us!

    How about more time focusing on your game Maysey and less time spraying other blokes.

    Thought viney had learnt but alas let's take everyone on again, same with harmes.

    This is how Geelong have such a good home ground advantage. We seem so confused with the lack of space on wings. Everything is compressed and we can't play our regular game style.

    Went to ground and cost a goal earlier in the quarter. He was good against Brisbane, but wasn’t great last week and was close to worst on ground that first quarter. He’ll need to lift or he’ll be dropped again.

    Bit harsh

    Bedford 69kg v Touhy 91kg

    not sure he will win any body on body contest if he stays on him. Let’s see how he goes for the rest of the game?


    Why are our players falling over? Seen at least 10 times our player has fallen over. Cats staying on their feet.

    1st quarter 

    stupidity abounds.  Harmes May Oliver Viney. Take the first option. Turned into trouble. Fended tackler ??! This is not v the Kangas.   Not sharp.  Lucky to be even.

    Bowey.  Ummm. Hmmmm.
     
    Trac 😄

    Twice Bedford getting caught out in a marking contest with a bigger player that quarter. What goes on there?

    Playing a small forward line has this consequence

    Really wish we brought one of Hunt/Rivers in.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
