Only half kidding.

 

 

Jesus it's not that hard to work out, how people make out there is more into it baffles me, just watch all the greats same thing over and over again they all kick straight over the man on the mark and follow through, yes the ball drop is part of it and that should not change.

Russel Robertson had problems early then started to kick straight over the mark and it improved, Fritta started to kick straight over the mark and more often than not when he comes in on an arc he misses even if you watch Max he started to improve then has gone back to the arc kick.

If the club wants to improve get the likes of Dunstall down to go through it with them, it cannot hurt.

Great sports people have one thing in common they do the same thing over and over no matter what more often than not.

Is it really that simple? Greg Norman had a technique that nailed shot after shot on the driving range and in normal tournaments, but everyone knew it did not stand up well to pressure where everything moved a bit faster

Each to his own but you don't think Peter Thompson had any global impact ( without choking ) ?

Peter Thompson was a great great golfer but as a face for golf at the time Norman was the biggest.

Repetition. You need to practice practice practice until the act becomes second nature. When the pressure is on you can then fallback on this automaticity and execute. 

Depends how you practice though as well. Block practice vs variable or creative practice etc

Get some angry Demonlanders at training behind the goals deliberately causing distractions to simulate game day conditions with a psychologist on hand conditioning the players against the psyche out.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
