GAMEDAY: Practice Match vs Fremantle

This short [censored] has to go

 

Chipping around half back and then creating a path through seems to be used a lot more than previous seasons.

Tackling and pressure excellent.

An uninspiring game, with few highlights, lots of spilled marks, lots of fumbling, and missed shots at goal.

May and Langdon excellent. Trac and Clarry looking really good.

Goalkicking - grrrrr...

Johnson looking handy.

Flat and uninspiring so far.

Our skills are appalling. Really hope we’re lulling them into a false sense of security only to switch it up in the second half.

    Billing’s can’t handle pressure. Gameplan is still a mystery, looks slow and uncertain 

     

    Dee Spencer is correct - we just don't move the ball. Zero run and carry....other than Koz there is no speed or dare. Devoid of ideas at half back because no one has the speed or creativity to create any space. 

    Very vanilla and boring so far

    So I assume Windsor is not playing HB?

    Slow ball movement = no space up the ground = turnovers = mounting scores against = lose the game.

    How can billings make that kick but miss two relatively easy shots on goal?

    How many psychologists can we fit in the soft cap?

    1.8 in nearly two quarters. 

    Not only is that woeful but who the hell is our goalkicking coach??

    I thought we were going to be more aggressive with our ball movement?

    This is uninspiring. A praccy is a perfect place to trial dash and dare! If we lose, we lose, it’s ok, but if we lose playing safe and boring like much of last year, what’s the point? 

    Freo embarrassed us TWICE last year.

    What’s the point of this? 

    What’s the message?

    We've made zero adjustment with our ball movement.  It's the same as 2024.

    Look at the way Freo transition off half back compared to us.

    Another year of slow boring football.

    He's never done it before....

    Horrible kicking in front of goal to have 1.5 from set shots inside 50, how do you coach for that

    I was hoping to see at least a glimmer of a new game plan

    We are getting towelled up again

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’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.

    • 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?

    • 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

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
