Given we have a KPI around forward half time, is it concerning our forward turnovers and overall game pressures are not where they need to be in order to achieve that KPI? More than half our score came from stoppages, which is hard to sustain during finals. Is our average AFL pressure rating (sometimes less) by design in order to stay fresh or a sign of fatigue / complacency? 

You just snuck in.

The Blues turnaround in form coincided with them losing McKay and it was to the benefit of Charlie Curnow who has been sensational and will probably take out another Coleman Medal. I think our defence can account for Curnow or at least keep him to only a couple of goals and not let him run rampant. What I am more concerned about is their small forwards who have been having a little purple path during their run of 7 wins. Motlop, Martin and Owies have all hit the scoreboard in recent weeks Motlop 10, Martin 8 & Owies 7. As we are all too aware we are at our most vulnerable once the ball hits the deck in defence and I am very worried about this mosquito fleet. Who takes who?

Sorry I was meaning to post this earlier but work commitments got in the way so if it's not too late ...

Looking at Carlton's injury list they have half their midfield out for this match.

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Jordan Boyd	Suspension	Round 22
Adam Cerra	Hamstring	2-3 weeks
Corey Durdin	Shoulder	Test
Matthew Kennedy	Knee	3-5 weeks
Harry McKay	Knee	4-6 weeks
Alex Mirkov	Heart	Season
Sam Philp	Foot	Season
Jack Silvagni	Knee	TBC
Sam Walsh	Hamstring	1-2 weeks
Zac Williams	Knee	Season
Updated: August 1, 2023 Walsh, Cerra and Kennedy are 3/4 of their engine room. With those outs how can they possibly match it with our midfield especially if Clarry is back. Thanks for the podcast guys. It is truly the highlight of my footy week after a win.

You're killing me here but a poignant question nonetheless

One of my Carlton mates reckons the Blues are in the kind of form that makes this week's match a Litmus test for whether the Dees will win the flag. I feel like this is a bit of a moot point. What do you guys make of his claim?

I'm happy to answer this one.

Tell him he's a nuffy.

Look at the stats. Harmesey was in the Dees' top 10. 

Well that just goes to show that stats can mean very little. 
 

40% or stats mean something and the other 80% don’t. 🙄

Another excellent podcast as always!

Well done Andy, George and Binman.

Thank you for everything that you do! 😎👍🏻

Sorry Bin Man, already started the Alex Neal Bullen fan club.

 

For @binman some comparison stats between Cyril and Kozzy. Could only compare each players 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th years against the others 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th years. These are their averages. Someone else can compile it together.

Another first rate podcast, gentlemen. Thanks @binman @george_on_the_outer and @Demonland 

In my view, the phone-in callers add little to the podcast. If anything, they make it more difficult for you to keep to the structure. Would you like to consider dropping that facility and only handling the questions /comments presented on the Demonland forum? Then you could cluster similar questions and refer to them at the appropriate time. Just my thoughts. Cheers.

That take our members up to 3 you, me and my son.

By the by Andy, I spoke with Fifa and they have moved the Tilly's  quater final from Monday night to Saturday arvo, so i can watch it live.

Good of them I thought.

Funny story - they initially said how bought sat night binman?.

No, no  no I said. That won't work.

But if you could make it 5pm, that would be perfect coz i can watch it at fed square before heading to the G to see the mighty dees demolish the blues. At first they were confused, thinking I meant France. And Denmark were already out.

But we got there in the end.

By the by, I have it on good authority (straight from the rabbit's mouth in fact) that yes, he likes the nick name Nibbler, but prefers it to be pronounced Nibbla.

Thanks for the feedback but I love hearing from other Demonlanders. Without taking calls we never would have discovered Binman.
