Great show. One knock effect of Goodies innovation and squad mentality this year (plus the inclusion of listener questions) is that there’s more to discuss and thus the podcast is now regularly 2+ hours - I’m happy with that, keeping me distracted for either two workouts or three dish washing assignments. Thanks for all your efforts and insights 👍

Absolutely this.

I don't care how long the shows are. If I don't churn through the episode during my commute then the dogs get an extra long walk at night and the walking doesn't feel like a chore. So thank you again guys.

All the questions are great and they always seem to cover the main topics and discussion points from each game that we don't get in the lamestream footy media. The stats are great and I have been incorporating what I learn from Binman into my footy conversations that mostly go over the heads or aren't appreciated by my non-demon supporting mates.

Great show as always but I definitely had some of my own perceptions challenged a bit. I also thought JVR's off the ball pressure was a bit off this week but I took the view that if he was marking most balls that came his way then that stuff didn't matter as much. Of course it does though and I agree come finals it would need to be at a much better level than what we saw. I'd still have him in the mix for that spot but the forward setup is by no means set for finals yet.

The Tomlinson stuff I do agree to an extent, he got lost out there on Sun but I do think he's capable of playing as the 3rd tall providing the opposition has height. It's such a shame that Turner got injured because I would have loved to see him in that role a lot more this year. I would just hate to see a situation where May pushes further up and Lever is left to do the gorilla 1v1 stuff, yes we'd also likely have Joel Smith as a sub but he can be flappy in 1v1 contests as well. It's going to be horses for courses there from here on in. 

Enjoyed thoroughly, I like having my personal opinions challenged instead of affirmed all the time and the level at which you guys study the games is what I come for. Appreciate your efforts.

Shout out to @george_on_the_outer for his opening words and thanking Andy for being the one that makes this whole thing happen. It takes an extremely committed individual to produce a weekly podcast to this level of content/structure/audio production and do that on top of work and running a forum, even overseas travel doesn't stop him.

It's easy to take for granted because he makes it look easy and I honestly have no idea how. Thanks Andy! *Embarrassing moment over*

Thank you for the kind words and thank you to @george_on_the_outer and @binman for theirs on the show.

We are going OS for almost 3 weeks in the middle of the year next year so I'm certainly going to be tested with the time differences and family time not to mention taking my equipment with me. Luckily it will be summer there and I won't have to pack any heavy winter clothing.

I'd like to add my congratulations Andy for the consistently excellent podcast you, Binman and George offer us each week. What I love is the way you three combine your own personal foibles - whether it be pessimism and the MFCSS, the optimism that keeps all of us coming back to the 'G for more or the brutal statistical analysis that comes with being a serious punter -  with your entertaining takes on what happened a few days prior. I can't wait each week for the next episode and this leads to a certain level of frustration. What I mean is I love winning on a Thursday or Friday night because it makes the whole weekend much more enjoyable as I bask in the glow of victory but, at the same time, a Friday night win (much more a Thursday night win) means I have to wait an inordinate time for the next podcast. Can I make a suggestion? Your introduction last week about the Richmond game I thought was a bit truncated. I like the format where you give us your view on the game quarter by quarter, mentioning the highlights as you go, as I feel this gives us the necessary skeleton on which to hang the next two hours of conversation. I think it helps to remind us all of the incidents we may have forgotten. For instance, when I am on the train after the match, I often struggle to recall startling efforts or key turning points that happen early in the game because they are pushed aside by a thrilling finish or a serious injury ( a clue here, I am 74!). I want to stress though, that I love the way you chaps can talk about a game for longer than the game took to play. That's devotion!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
