Can someone please explain why you play on from the centre at pace and then kick to 3 on one opposition and the other forwards no where near it?

    Sesto hits a shorty to Windsor who goes back amd misses from 30 in front

    Casey a competitive quarter, inaccuracy for goal denies them the lead.

    Entertaining footy. 

    Laurie, AMW, Tholstrup all excellent. Billings using it well, K Brown had some impressive early touches. Jefferson showing that he's capable at ground level and not just reliant on his marking. Sestan got more involved as the quarter wore on and looks dangerous inside 50.

    Surely AMW gets a promotion soon. His tackling is good.  Won some good contested footy too.

    Inability to get clean possession inside 50 hasn't helped. Sandringham much better going inside 50

    Casey would positively lead the i50 count. Sandy cleaner more efficient.

    Yes they often miss lateral or 45 options but it's also a result of some forwards not working hard enough (repeat efforts) to hit up at the ball carrier.

    This same thing purveys alot when players are bursting out of stoppage through the middle or off a wing. 

    The leads from designated forwards often go missing.  They are somehow expecting fatigued player to kick it over the head of their defender as they run away from them towards goal.

    Alternatively a player at stoppage receiving or gathering under pressure then having to dump kick.  Often forwards sit back in this situation allowing their direct opponent or a spare to play in front for the easy intercept.

    See this quite often at senior level too.

    One of my bug bears.  Very frustrating to watch.

    Their transition has been quicker / slicker on occasions too giving them nice looks inside 50

    Edwards having a decent game so far.

    Hits up Benny who then decides not to shoot at goal from 50 and returns the favour to Edwards who misses from 35 on a 45

    Jeffo with a good contested mark but fades right.

    Mitch White playing a captain’s game.

    Agree, but one can see you have no forwards present but they just kick without understanding they need to hold it up till the forwards get back it's just playing on for the sake of it, it's bad coaching full stop.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
