Five Key Questions 

1- The Gawn injury update? By Monday we hope to have some answers. (Can we thrive with Grundy as sole ruckman  )

2- Smashed in the clearances. Smashed!! How? Why?
Lost clearances 30-60. Centre clearances 10-20. Stoppages 20-40. You cannot win in those numbers. 

3- Harmesy. Career worst game. I don’t like to single individuals but wow he was bad. How? Why? Tackling was terrible. Disposal poor.  Fumbled all night. Didn’t tag so ineffective. Metres gained 40. Frees against 4.  He cannot stay in. 

4- Poor coaching or players ignoring strategy.  Why did we play the slow and stop and wide ball movement game. Who’s coaching this? Simply allowed Lions to block the passages to goal. When we moved the footy quickly and ran, we were dangerous (especially in the last 11 minutes). 

5- How good was Lachie Hunter? Very good. He was smart and creative. Looked to score and add extra defensive and attacking runs. Very good addition. Langdon looked out of sorts but Hunter proudly represented the Wingers club 

On the second point Yze is the midfield coach did nothing while the onslaught went on in the first quarter.

Third point Harmes is to slow with not great footy IQ

Point four, it has a lot to do with disposals we are poor at kicking over an oppositions head when there is 10 metre space in-between them and us, players not spreading in the forward line we just bombed it in again.

But I wonder whether they have the guts to drop, Harmes, Tmac and Melk and bring in some youth.

An excellent podcast as always!

Thank you for answering my questions @Demonland.

 

Hopefully the match committee gives in to the "pressure" from all of us here at Demonland and selects Jacob van Rooyen in the Melbourne side against Sydney.

    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

    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.
