PODCAST: Rd 09 vs Carlton

Mid season draft coming up.

We need to do what Richmond in 2019, years we need to find a diamond in the rough and it has to be an inside mid or a genuine key forward/Ruck.

That’s 3 games in a row against the Blues that insufficient goal review technology has cost us the match. One day a team will lose a Grand Final as a result of Soviet era tech. 

I used to sit in and operate a fixed camera for the AFL match day vision (the behind the goals camera) from 14-16 and back then the goal review system (run by Hawkeye) would have an AFL employee or a VFL umpire sitting next to a Hawkeye tech (normally from england).

And back then they had absolutely no F’ing idea what they were doing or talking about.

The Hawkeye tech who as there just to play back footage and certain angles for the goal review op would often give his [censored] uneducated view of what he was seeing. It was laughable. I shutter at the tough of who is doing it atm.

Keep in mind, if it wasn’t a VFL umpire it was just someone from AFL operations who got paid sweet F all extra to do it. Thats the kind of quality we are dealing with here. That was only 10-8 years ago.

 

Great show as always guys.  Both entertaining and insightful.  Thank you! ❤️💙

Were our centre stoppage set ups too aggressive in the first quarter? Even when they started putting scores on us, we never really reverted to a defensive set up, and continued to go for the clean break away clearance.

Whats that? Our midfield got punished? Didn’t see that coming..


Great show.

Don't know if I'm fully on board the proud of performance train but fantastic insights as always.

I didn't think Carlton were horrible for the entire second half either, thought they were pretty much in control with the game on their terms right up until the last 8 mins of the game where maybe the 3 games in 13 days kicked in. Quite often they replied with goals quickly to ours after a lot of hard work and from memory they started at least 2 quarters with goals in the first 30 seconds.

Proud of the fightback but no doubt in my mind the better team won on the night.

  • 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?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’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.

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

  • 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.
