My issue is the two, three, four tiered social stratification of society and the clubs/groups that reflect this system of inequalities. 

Why only a pay per view at a ground that is difficult to get too via public transport?

Cannot expect much input from those left outside, getting glimpses as they strain to look in.

Welcome back. It's been a long few months but Footy IS Back!!

Interested to get your thoughts on all the Demon Debutantes. Billings, Windsor, K Brown & even Howes (and Laurie).

 

 

Practice Match aside, What are your thoughts and feelings about conceding 10 unanswered goals in perfect conditions? Should we be worried?

My question is for @binman and hopefully he can find the stats from this game but that will probably be difficult. We seemed to get murdered on the Turnover today. It seemed that a lot of their scores were generated on the Turnover. We on the other hand could not capitalise on our Turnovers. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.


OPERATION: KEEP KOZZY IN THE MIDDLE.

Kozzy was electric in the middle. Got a heap of clearances. I would love to see more of him in the middle in the season proper and not just at the first bounce of each quarter. Yes we need him as a crumbing forward too but until we can clone him I want to see him build up his time in the guts. He adds a point of difference to the 3 or 4 bulls in Trac, Viney, Oliver and Sparrow. Sorry Binman but I would much prefer Kozzy over ANB. Nibbler should not be attending centre bounces.

Welcome back fellas. What did you make of our execution today? I thought our disposal was atrocious. Did you notice anything different with our transition of the ball out of defence and also with our delivery inside 50?

Great to have Footy and the Demonland Podcast back. What did you think of our small forward brigade? With the exception of Pickett I wasn't overly impressed and I thought Chandler in particular was MIA. Almost every time the ball hit the deck inside our 50 it went out with very little effort. Would love to see the inside 50 tackle stats.

What percentage of rat power were we going at? I thought about 40.


if salem is going to become a permanent part of the midfield rotation, does this allow for the inclusion of a new player in the back 7 (e.g. howes) to accompany the standard core of may - lever - tomlinson - mcvee - rivers - bowey?

Great to have you all back, really missed the podcast over the summer.

I like the look of Billings on the weekend, do you see him as possibly part of the midfield rotation? 

Edited by Jibroni

Kozzi mostly midfield or forward?  I know he’s been injured, but from what we seen, can AMW step up?

It was great to see the boys back in match sim with some opposition today. Looked like just a switch up from training with a few nice passages of play interspersed with guys trying to bite off too much and making errors. 
Best to do that at this time of the year.
Nice to see some of the uncapped players be given roles and for the most part show they can be slotted into the side when required. Probably just not 5 at a time. 
Nothing to worry about here - just business as usual for this year. 


Watched the game on Kayo and I think our inability to win ground balls in our defence is still a massive issue. What do you think? Love the show. Bring on 2024.

Addendum to my question above, Is ‘Pup’ Brown a realistic small forward prospect for ‘24?  

Welcome back Demonland podcast.

handwringers see the 9-10 goal run.  Sunshiners see the first 5 goals in a row.  Where do you sit on the handwringer - sunshiner scale?

What did you LIKE from what you saw?

Did you recognise any new touches from the coaching changes Undertaken in the off season?  

I watched the first 20 minutes of play, in which we played fast attacking football, hitting targets and using angles to target players who were in better positions, then everything changed.

I wonder whether Goody and Co were satisfied with what they saw, felt they had seen enough, and did not want the footy world to see anymore. After the first quarter, did you observe any discernible changes to the team makeup or gameplan that might help explain Richmond's 10 goal run-on?

Andy could you please ask George about our Membership for 2024.

ANy figures published etc? 

Thanking you

Nothing up on the Club website. Just last years number. Another example of the poor communication we get with the  mob running the show ….how hard is it to post a number on a website?

Have you had any advice that no figures are going to be published George or that no figures are to be published in this pre season period ? 
Interesting because I feel if the figures were  going well there would be publicity to that effect. Thanks George.

No idea.  Other clubs have done it.....

 

What's happened to Ed Langdon?

Looking forward to listening in again for 2024.

I couldn't see the game - mainly interested in the new guys, and Howes who some said had a shocker (?HBF?).

There wasn't much mention of the Kolt in the thread.

Is VerraIl looking more than promising?  I know he didn't play but from what any of you have seen earlier in the preseason is Fullerton a better bet than the Shack?

Anyway - will try to get through the podcast Wednesday or Thursday - thanks to you all.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
