The Demonland Podcast will not be LIVE on this week. Binman will do his regular stats files segment and will preview the upcoming Essendon match but will not be taking any questions this week.

I will post the show here once I receive Binman's stats files. You can also find it wherever you get your podcasts from.

We will return in our regular format once I return after the Dockers match.

And on a similar topic, how good our fwd structure looked with the inclusion of Melksham?

I can't see Petty going back to the fwd line, I'd rather have him back with May and Lever.

 

Do you think we free Lever up a bit more against the bombers? I think he gets exposed as a 1v1 defender which is where he seemed to find himself a few times against the Eagles.


Why did it take it take so long to run Rivers through the middle? Reaping the rewards now.

cmon @binman, take some q's!

who is the most promising of our 22 and under brigade and who will end up the best player? deep dive into stats may be required

I can take that one. Have already run the numbers on one young gun.

Binman made a great point on the postgame or pregame thread that if AMW can prove to be a guy to take the dangerous small forwards then Judd McVee can move further up the ground where his great foot skills and ball use can be utilised even further. 

With crisis comes opportunity and the chance is now there for younger guys to gain exposure in the middle. As crazy as it sounds, could Trac going down end up being the best thing that could have happened for us in terms of re-shaping our midfield?

With the exception of Sydney Swans who seem to be faltering and North who are improving,is this the most even comp you have seen?

Apologies. It was a preloaded post. We are not on this week.

@binman will be doing his stats files and previewing the Essendon match but will not be taking questions.

We'll be back in our regular format after the Dockers game.

And I thought that the comment "we are on" was in reference to our season in the context of "loading" or preparation.

I think it was always in the pipeline but brought to a head by the loss of CP5 and the less than his usual stellar form of CO13.

I wish we had extended his contract longer but only five years, at least for now.

PS: Maybe save this one for a later ep. 

A question for Binners

 

Who should come in for Max given the change to the ruck rules?

Do we need a run with ruck as we got taken to the cleaners when essendon played us in adelaide

Is Fullarton and  Shache basically the same?

 

Cheers

 

Shane

“Is Fullarton and  Shache basically the same?”

Well I think we all know about Schache as does the FD; Fullarton at least at AFL level 2024 is unknown   I would think that the unknown unknown is better than the known known (to paraphrase Donald Rumsfeld (I think it’s was him)

 

The highly anticipated sequel to the mid 90s hit stage show “The [censored] Monologues”… The Binman Monologues.

Bravo binman, thanks for this episode.

Thanks DW. I listened back to the first 20 minutes and i thought it sounded like a footy version of the bbc shipping forecast.

I thought I might channel my inner cornes, get ansty and do a binman's rant segment.

just make sure you upload as a separate pod - the more bite-sized morsels you make, the better for the sponsors

 

Brilliant solo effort Bin.  Loved the stats, loved the analysis and loved the predictions.  Both interesting and entertaining! ………. Go ‘Redleggers’!

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • 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.
