I believe the game is called 'foot'ball

My understanding is the aim is to kick the thing between the two white posts yes?

    It's gotta get to some point where we need to seriously review our goal kicking program.

    Absolute below par some of the set shorts that are being missed by full time professional athletes both in AFL and VFL.

    Out of interest for those watching, are we missing easy shots or are these tough shots from the flanks/pockets?

    I don't get to training so I can't comment but on bigfooty a regular Melbourne supporter who attends said in all the pressure season training he went to, goalkicking practice was completely non existent. 

    Yes, the player do it on their own spare time after training but from he was saying there is a no structured training in place for this.

    Other than the Yze miss the shots were from around 45 metres including some blazing on the run. Fullerton's two misses were from perhaps 35 on a 45 degree angle.

    Percentage wise you could expect at least another 3-4 goals

    i attended a training last week as i was in melb for the f1 they were playing soccer for the most part of training, via social media posts and photos it looks like they do quite regularly. maybe instead they should just focus on goal kicking, it isnt to far fetched to say that we probably would have an extra cup or two to show for if improved our goal kicking 22' and 23'

    How’s he looked @adonski? 

    Pretty good without dominating

    His best work has been in link up play between the arcs where he has found space and used the footy well in transition

    Had 2 shots on goal in the first quarter, one long bomb from 55 and a second from a set shot inside 50 where he missed both

    Has played pretty much exclusively as an inside mid from what I can tell but you miss stuff with the dodgy camera work

    I've read that on this site too. They practise all the speccy shots, on their own time.

     

    They need to have organised practice of simple shots. The speccies can look after themselves.

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
