Much more positive that qtr - great games from Brown Jr and Windsor in their first outing, and Billings ball use has really stood out

    Rivers ball use has been deplorable

    Agree on that,

    Bowy, Rivo, McVee, Billings are going to be integral to our ball movement, would like to see them hit targets consistently.

    Bowey and Billings have been good, surprisingly also Viney.

    I think there were (and are) enough worrying signs against a second string outfit to warrant some panicky posts, pre-season or not.

    It’s our second string outfit too. No Brayshaw, Oliver, Salem, Gawn off the whole quarter, petty, B. Brown, Hunter…it’s funny the argument only applies to our opposition

    But nothing has improved from 2023?

    You can’t reach that conclusion based on what we do in a practice match. 

    It’s not real.

    Has been some good signs and some big flat spots but would be great to finish off with a bit of Thorstrop magic

    Game day threads haven’t, that’s for sure.

    It’s not even. It’s a match simulation 

    True, this is even less real. 

    I mean, what are we playing here, seven “quarters”?

    Did anyone notice any changes or influence, McQualter made on the mids?

    By definition an opportunity to dance with someone else’s sister.


    Anyone here that still think Laurie is an AFL footballer is out of their minds. He had two goes at it then and coughs up a goal. Been unsighted most of the day and when sighted, made many errors 

    K Brown very impressive. Probably starts off in the VFL with such a slight frame though. (I think!)

     

    Bill Laurie… that was a poor passage mate

    Jack Viney has been our best by far today


    Edit: I misread a post and responded to it with confusion. The post was about Laurie so it seems I may have been channeling his play today.

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • 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?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
