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.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
