    Sometimes I wonder why Sparrow gets selected.

    Today is one of them.

    he is pretty important to the midfield rotation and making sure our other mids get a rest

    Better quarter, much more contested ball and a few more (earned) free kicks our way.

    Our movement is better this week but our kicking inside 50 is still ****house. 3 marks i50 from 27 entries, vs 8 from 27 for them. Need to do a lot better at kicking to advantage

    Still a lot of work needed on our entries. Oliver has absolutely butchered some of his entries. Trying to be too cute and just completely missing the target.

    Feel like if we just get some better connection and can nullify Jones better we’ll run away with it.

    Just today?

     

    Credit to Goodwin. Our attacking method feels different. We are using the corridor more. Our field kicking has been good. We are taking a moment to assess the next kick attacking out of half back. I like it. 
     

    Nice to have BB and Tmac back. Both are doing their job well. Clarry is a beast. Really loving the look of howes, Windsor and billings. 
     

    Plenty to like!

    May and Clarry physically monstering them

    Billings and Windsor providing the class

    Seeing a lot more kick and mark and spread than last year. Far from perfect but good to see Goody is implementing changes to the game plan

    Umpiring standard this season leaves a lot to be desired.

    We seemed to have taken our foot off their neck in the second halve of the second quarter.

    Great effort from Bb and good to see Chin of old.

    Kozzie gone cold.

    May playing very well.

    Hore is back where he belongs.

    Jvr totally mia that quarter.

    He and Fritta need to get going. Moreso Fritta.

    Max atoning for last week.

    Viney was quiet that quarter after a blistering start.

     

    Milky in the rooms giving advice to fritta 

    obviously a coach in the making really good to see. And petty wandering around as well

    If Sparrow and Fritta can get involved, this would be a big help in consolidating a lead.

    Seemed like we took our foot off a little in the second half of that qtr. a little bit of a missed opportunity but I appreciate it’s warm out there. Might need to conserve energy?

    Windsor has been excellent.  So quick of mind and hands. Love him already.

    Using the half time breaks to read more this year.

    Currently reading Hymns of the Republic by S.G Gwynne which details the last year of the Civil War. Highly recommend!

    Pleasantly surprised by TMac, BBB and Hore. Sparrow has done SFA. Lever still below par. 

    Stoked with Bbb.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
