Any danger this team develops speed and tank?

Even their older players seem.to run quicker and tire less.

 

New innovation in our gameplan, don't go near your opponent, working well, and if that doesn't work give it to players that are nowhere near it not sure it's going to catch on by other teams.

    I'm really hoping he is a late bloomer like his old man. Shane was drafted as a mature age player when he was 21 in 97.

    Woey senior is overrated

    Hard watch. Lizzie has been dangerous but might get rubbed out. Chandler has tried hard. Gawn ok. Everyone else has been horrible.

    Viney played his only A grade game for the year and put the cue in the rack.

    Thank goodness there's only a quarter of this horrific season left.

    Just don't let this be a blow out. Finish the quarter strong

    skills are woeful, we had so many opportunities go begging because of poor disposal. we need a new skills coach (and some better players). i still dont see us manning up, this is where they are killing us and we continue to give them heaps of easy cheap possessions. absolutely destroyed at our lack of effort in chasing, tackling and most things around the ground. i had hoped that after the 2nd quarter we were making bit of a comeback but that was not to be.

    Nope needs the tank and teaching and he will be OK.

    He’s nowhere near strong enough. He’s so good at HB I just don’t understand the need to play him in the middle until he’s much stronger.

    Petracca , Oliver, Sparrow all missing 

    maybe explains why McVee is doing midfield time don’t you think ? 
     

    We have no depth in that part of the ground and even our main starters have poor kicking skills 

    It should be our key focus during the draft period and trading

    We are [censored] next season

    Playing this soft it's hard to disagree.

    Bruise free butchers with a failed system and method that doesn't hold up under anything that resembles AFL standard pressure.

    We cannot maintain possession for more than a few disposals in transistion and after three years have not learned or garnered the skills and craft that sees a switch of lanes or direction that allows us to hit more targets coming inside 50.

    We are STILL playing on like headless chooks, running and kicking in straight lines with no lowering of vision and constantly missing open options inside 50. 

    Instead just bombing on ppls heads down the line which the oppo intercepts or spoils easily.

    I can't see how Goodwin survives beyond 2025 if he continues to dish up this rubbish.

    I really don’t understand our zone off sometime.

    I understand that it gives us structure behind the ball but it seems to leave the corridor wide open. 
     

    i also concede that our zone off is never going to work when we’re turning the ball over this much 

    Blow the friggen siren already so I can remove myself from this misery.

    Starting to think our players are colour blind.

    Definitely after the Brownlow.

    I'm just hoping that Woey can develop into a player that can reliably play a role. He is a liability at the moment and I cringe when I see him named in the team.

    It really makes it hard when your best kicks consistently miss targets in a game where you have almost no margin for error anyway.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
