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?

Going to end the questions there as I have to put all the Show Notes together. Thank you to everyone for their input. You will get your well deserved shoutouts.

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 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.

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.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
