Question:

Where does fritters goal rank in the great Demon goals?

The one he kicked after Harmes hit him lace out? 😅

Second to Allen Jakovich's over the head one for me... 👆

Edited by Engorged Onion

 

I mentioned our I50 efficiency last week and this week it was good again at 51% with 27 shots from 52 I50 entries.

Why are people bemoaning our gameplan when we're getting more looks at goal per I50 than we've had in a long time?

Not a question rather an observation. Tommy Mac has been enormous for us and had another great game tonight. I don’t think he receives the plaudits he deserves. The backline looks even better with Tommy back down there.

Love the podcast - never miss an episode.

What about Jakovic's scissor kick?

How mammoth was Max in the last quarter. 9 possessions, 4 clearances and a goal?

I was worried that Max might have been injured early because he was off the ground for a large chunk of the 2nd quarter. Didn't realise until the end that he had a concussion test.

I reckon you also have to take into account the stage of the game and the importance of the game. Super late in the 4th , less than a goal the difference,  4 v 1 ( with 1 unbeaten) is a big time in a big game. Jacko kicked that scissor goal as part of a big win against the roos just before 3/4 time. I vote for Fritters

 

What are your feelings / thoughts on Billings. Im not sure he's bringing that much anymore.  Does Bowey come in and switch some positions around to replace him.

Agreed. He's also just a great foil for Cameron. Has the legs and the height to go with him.


I already know the answer but I’ll ask anyway. Will the media give Goody the recognition he deserves for the tactical masterclass? Scott mentioned that his players were off, which they were, however they were off because Goody didn’t allow the cats to play the type of game that they were expecting/wanting to play. Thoughts?

Maybe the additional question is - what reasons woudn't the media give Goodwin the recognition? I just assume Scott is trying to protect his players, and will be quite concerned behind the scenes... he's a great coach with a great team around him, and they've got a bit to nut out. They'd also understand  we could have won by 4-6 goals...

Totes agree!
 

TMac in the backline seems to have lifted Levers game allowing him to play back to his intercepting best. TMac has also taken the pressure off May having to take on all the all the Gorilla opposition forwards and resting rucks. May seems to be back near his best as well. 

Hello men,

Love the podcast and you're contributions to the club. We are very lucky to have you guys involved and your positive analysis (although Binman would suggest it is an even analysis) has helped me to appreciate the game a lot more.

My observation last night in a tide of positives, all well deserved, is of an opposition player in Zac Guthrie. He had a great game. I know we held (possibly through Turner ) Stewart to a low involvement in the game, but I wonder if they were happy to let that happen as long as Guthrie was having such an impact. I thought Nibbler had a poor game by his standards, but was more worried by the efforts of Billings and Chandler. I think Guthrie played on, or more, ran off Chandler for most of the night. Do the team see this as a concern moving forward.

I think we should look at developing a taller half forward option as it looked to me to be one of the only negatives on a great night. With the availability of McAdam and Melksham after the bye, I think Billings and Maybe Chandler have put their spots in danger.

Thanks and Go Dees

Petty the Centre Half Forward finally arrived. Those marks down the line were huge. 8 marks for the match. More of this please Harrison.


Is Fritta one of the Afls premier forwards? Both Cameron and Hawkins kept scoreless. 

Fritta's not far from Coleman leader in Curnow. I think he's very underrated. Is he?

Can we talk about our elite kicks on the list?

What's our top 5 for kicking skills?

Fritsch 

McVee

Salem

Windsor

Kozzy

Do you agree?

Maybe you can add Bowser and Rivers.

He's definitely in AA considerations this year.

Billings is a better field kick than say Windsor ans rivers.

Def elite. His field kicking yesterday was sublime.


Hi guys,

id like to get your thoughts on the 49 possession and 21 marks combined for the Lever and May combo.

i watched them closely and they hold each other so accountable and are always providing real time feedback. I believe this has taken their game to a new level.

id also like to hear the praises for our young star Duke Windsor. How unbelievable were his 2 tackles, so strong for such a young player and he does now remind me of a young Robbie Flower. Run down tackles that end up in goals are my favourite!!!

keep up the good work - love the pod.

No he's not. Why was he subbed off? Ironically he was good in the third before being subbed. Watch his disposals in the first half.

Huge win, very pleased.

Good to see Petty run into some form, i like this role too, up the ground more where his leading patterns don't matter as much but we can move the ball quickly if he clunks it around the wing which means we can change angles and get better fwd options.

It also allows him to help the defence out and play his natural game of attacking the footy in the air.  The inclusion of Turner has allowed this to happen. 

Also, i wasn't sure about you Woey as a def, but could he be that lock down small defender we have been craving since Jetts retired?

 

I tipped us - and we kept the cats to the target score or 60-70 points.  We can beat anyone if we manage that from a defensive perspective.

Simply want to shout out to the crowd - it was great to be a demon amongst that crowd.  When we won, it was wonderful! Go Dees!

Hi guys, looking forward to another great podcast. The stat that we had 5 players with 10 games or less, and McVee with not too many more, is just so heartening. The fact that these guys, Windsor excepted are “no names” as far as the afl industry is concerned, gives real confidence that our beloved dees have finally matured into a modern great club.

Your thoughts?

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
