PODCAST: Rd 18 vs Brisbane

Recommended Posts

I'm sure you guys are snowed under in preparation for another epic podcast - just a reminder to do a quick shout-out for the AFLW fixture release and Melbourne's part in the season opener on Sep 1st. I know you're across it, but also that it's a packed agenda! Don't think there's been a H&A game with more to discuss than that one.

As always, love your work and go Dees.

Not sure we'll get to this tonight but we will of course discuss the women's team closer to the start of the season.

No worries, not looking for an in-depth binman analysis, just a shout out. Can't rely on the AFL to advertise haha.

What a great way to start the weekend. The boys realy pulled one out of the box and setup a great run into finals. 

I hope they double down with JJ and try to entice him to stay.

Changes for next week i think will be Tomo in for Petty. 

Need to keep forward line as in for now get JVR and BBB working together and play each other into form.

Have fun on the poddy tonight boys and go Red Legs!!!!!

1 hour ago, whatwhat say what said:

for the first 15 mins or so brisbane could not penetrate our zone, but once they 'worked it out' they sliced through with relative ease, until the final 15 mins

what changed?

IMHO the reason they couldn't get past us was that they didn't have the ball - we did. If you have the ball then the opposition can't score ...

"throw your arms around me" is their iconic standard, but i love that whole album

1986 was a helluva year for oztrayan rock, which as a then seven year old i only know in retrospect:

  • the triffids - born sandy devotional AND in the pines
  • hunters & collectors - human frailty
  • the go-betweens - liberty belle...
  • crowded house - self-titled
  • nick and the bad seeds - your funeral my trial AND kicking against the [censored]
  • paul kelly and the coloured girls - gossip
  • died pretty - free dirt

arguably one of the greatest years for the local scene, i would wager

I think you can comment on individual episodes on Spotify but I can't see any review system and I don't think Google has one either but I have an iPhone so I'm unfamiliar with that platform.

There is definitely a review system on Spotify but only for the podcast not for individual episodes.

Btw, your current review score is 4.9 stars out of 5 👍🏻

Just saw that. Doesn't seem you can write a review just give a rating out of 5.

I walk while listening to the podcast (on the following morning) and I’m happy for them to go as long as possible. Last week’s was a 19,253 step podcast. Thanks @Demonland 

Damn - we only needed 747 more steps to make it a nice round 20, 000 step podcast.

I blame myself - i forgot to highlight Whatley's ridiculous call as the siren went when he said with great fervor - "Melbourne rescue their season'.

Sheesh.

And what about the 'how did the Lions lose that game" narrative the media are pushing.

Coz the dees didn't have anything to do with it did they!

If it was the Pies reeling in 5 goal deficit it would have all been Daicos this, Pies that, never count them out this, have my baby Nick that blah blah blah.

@Demonland and @binman on the pod there was discussion around why listing Grundy as omitted vs managed or soreness.

I am pretty sure that the CBA requires players to continue to receive match payments when they were in the team, but are unavailable for selection due to injury.

I would hazard a guess that this is part of the reasoning why clubs choose to manage players sometimes but omit other times.

 

Unsure if it applies here.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    TRAINING: Monday 11th November 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons. Date of Birth: 10 January 1992 Height: 193cm Games MFC 2024: 19 Career Total: 235 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 24 Melbourne Football Club: 9th Best & Fairest: 316 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025. Date of Birth: 7 August 2003 Height: 185cm Games MFC 2024: 23 Career Total: 48 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 1 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1 Melbourne Football Club: 7th Best & Fairest: 347 votes

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
