Unrestricted free agent. Exactly the type of player we need to target. Would allow us to push Kozi into the middle more, and not lose craft up forward.

    Another dubious third rate  player, will go ok alongside other champions, Fullerton, McAdam , Hunter, Billings and the Sashenator, right down Taylor’s alley.

    Not happy with our decline, let’s dig down a bit deeper.

    If Bailey smith chooses the Cats you’d think the dogs would be all over this 

    Not if he's an unrestricted free agent

    At the reported $800,000 the media are sprouting you could pick up a topline midfielder.

    You probably can’t these days, not as a free agent anyway. But we should be targeting mids and talls with any big cash offers.

    Stengle’s a class player but paying him top of the line money makes sense for Essendon who have a huge hole there rather than us.

    Yeah, but who is our next coach that can make these changes???

    I am unsure if Stafford is to blame for our forward woes.

    Poor delivery from upfield is not his area. I have seen our forwards make space and be totally ignored, or a mis kick pass cruel them. Long bombs into the forward line are again not his area I would think.

    Do we blame Stafford for dropped marks, poor goal kicking maybe.

    There is more wrong with us than the forward coach.

    I watch it from behind the goals Red and the errors, flaws and poor craft stand out like the proverbial.

    👉🏼  Lack of separation

    👉🏼  STILL too many going up together with no one down

    👉🏼  Three seasons and Kozzy is still going for speckie of the year.  Often spoiling his team mate in the process and also not there for the crumb. 

    Unforgiveable this is still happening after that long.

    👉🏼  Most or all forwards running away from a pressured ball carrier coming through the middle or off a wing far too often.  Doesn't always happen but it's far too often.

    Under this scenario the pressured kicker will often dump it shallow straight into the basket of an oppo defensive sweeper who has read the play better.

    👉🏼  Attempting to play small mediums or mediums at true CHF for serious minutes.  I understand you have to try things and mix things up.  Present a diff look and test your opponents.  But this is a tactic that should be a rare surprise if standard structures arent't working.  Not a regular 'go to'.

    👉🏼  Smalls, Mediums & even HF - Mids running into the leading lanes of designated hit ups disrupting their attemps to mark on a lead.

    I've seen (from behind the goals) Fritta & Melk (last season) yelling in frustration a number of times for rookies and seasoned players to get the hell out.

    👉🏼  Non desgnated hit up forwards do not provide enough blocks / chop outs in general in order to assist marking forwards gain space / time on their opponents.

    👉🏼  Not enough dumby leads by non designated stay-at-home forwards in order to clear out the forward 50 for pack crashing / marking forwards and crumbers like JVR & Kozzy.

    The only players with genuine leading patterns and / craft ...

    BBB & Melk ... when playing

    Fritta... when he decides to bring it

    That's just from recent memory.

    You see a fair bit from behind the goals that you don't see from the wing on the box.

    Fair enough.

    My vision is as you said, from the wing or on TV.

    Fairly comprehensive 😊

    A yes to Stengle for mine. He'd be ahead of Chandler.

    If we do what I think we should do and revert to a forward half territory game, we need more x factor at ground level. It means slower entries become more dangerous if we get them to ground and repeat stoppages inside 50 would also face a better chance of being converted with more x factor.

    Which is why I hope we also target Rachele.

    IMV we've had a style that suits x factor smalls, which is why Kozzy has shone in our system. Problem we've had is we don't have any other x factor smalls.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
