GAMEDAY: Rd 08 vs Geelong

Featured Replies

We look very switched on. That quarter fills me with confidence that @binman was on the money with his loading and fatigue theories for the first half last week. Ripper of a match so far, hope we can keep it up.

I think your close. 80% perhaps

 

Intensity very high.

Feel like 15 frees is a lot for a quarter.

Yeah I think this year is going to be a write off. He is void of his usual confidence. Maybe having to pull his head in has really cut deep. 


Holding the ball is red hot.. at least for anyone wearing red

What are the fireworks for? May the 4th be with you or something?

Cats have managed to flood our fwd line like they did against Carlton.

We have been efficient going fwd compared to them thanks to our mercurial defenders.

 

Pressure is hot from both teams

Finish the quarter with higher disposal efficiency, we look good picking our way into their zone 

Good start but must keep up our intensity 


Both team showing their best, lots of running and great skills. Our foot skills tonight have been outstanding. If we continue to stall them moving through the wing with an extra player loose, we win. 

Umpiring is a concern. Not from a bias point of view, but over umpiring minor discrepancies, and not seeing the ball being dropped by the tackled player. Frustrating. 

Any chance we can get @binman to teach these channel 7 nuffies a thing or 2 on commentary? For ex-players and people who watch the game for a living none of them have any idea.

Specifically about why our stats look different to prior years and how we "just find a way to hang on" despite the stats not looking great 🙄

He is certainly still not right…

Haha get stuffed Geelong 

Best post ever.

Such passionate disdain.

Love it Layzie.

I want us to beat this arrogant mob so much.


I’m still a bit uneasy at how easy the Cats move the ball from D50. It just shows what an elite defence does. Our Midfield is still really average. Just need one of our boys to go off the charts. Just one and we can split this game open.

It's almost as if they decide beforehand which rule are we red hot on tonight.

Viney down for quite a while there


I predict a draw

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
