Dees Inside 50s in QF vs Swans

Featured Replies

 
 

Don't normally rate Ross Lyon's analysis but did find his segment on us and Sydney Footy Classified quite interesting.  He highlighted some of Sydney's inside 50s.  We were well setup for most of them and yet they managed to fake kicking long and pull the kick at the last moment which caught us off guard.  Admittedly we might not have many players in the team that could pull some of them off.

I don't know if we practice this sort of thing (regular track watchers would know) but if we don't, I hope we add this in for next season.  It is a valuable skill that Sydney seem to be the masters of.

What's more concerning was the complete lack of movement when we had a kick to inside 50 after mark or free. Everyone was standing around watching like teenage boys at a dance.

Cool tactic, but we had it in our power to neutralise it with scoreboard pressure. Instead we went retro with "mark, stop and kick" to guys who spend so much time practicing goal kicking from the boundary, they think that's where you have to do it from.


Looks like a Horror Film.

Whoever put this graph together kudos to you, couldn't have been a Dees fans, this would have caused absolute torment upon ones soul piecing this one together.

FML.

a collection of lines is useless unless you know the location of players in the f50

A lot of those red line turnovers might tell the story.

Clear to see any deep central entries end up in turnovers.  All goals coming from shallow wide entries

obviously you need to consider skill, intent and structure in all that

ps. any chance we could get a box and whisker plot of this data?  not for any reason aside from it's my favourite presentation of data

I hate you so much right now.  But I gotta respect the gag

At least it wasn't Garry Hocking in a box

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

  • TRAINING: Wednesday 18th February 2026

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers were blessed with some beautiful Wednesday morning weather to give their observations of one of the final open training session at Gosch's Paddock prior to our first practice hit out against another team this weekend.
