    Another good listen.

    It feels like the players are so focused on trying to implement the new ball movement plans that they aren't doing the basics well.

    We need to get back to worrying about pressure and contested ball as our primary focus on game day.

    A bit like when you practice a new golf swing. While on the range you spend time thinking about it and implementing the change, but once you're out on the course you just focus on hitting the ball.

    I'm listening to the podcast and it is feeding back like crazy... anyone else having issues or is this a me thing?

    I have no idea what was even causing it.

    I had not touch anything in my setup nor change any settings since the last show.

    I ended up closing the program at streams our audio and when I reopened and reconnected it was gone.

    That’s really strange. It was a slap back delay sound, so either another microphone somewhere was picking up on a sound source or a secondary output was directly feeding audio into an input. The delay sound wasn’t degraded though, which makes me think it was the latter. It sounded like the same signal repeating itself?

    Audio stuff just does weird things sometimes.

    The way my equipment is set up it shouldn't allow for that. My cohosts weren't hearing anything feeding back to them and no settings or equipment had changed from last week. Simply shutting down the streaming software and restarting it without changing any audio setting fixed it.

    Huh, maybe just a weird software glitch then with the stream output. If nobody else was hearing it, then the signals up until that point were all good. That’s weird.

    Thanks for fronting up for another very enjoyable and balanced pod guys. Mrs DoF and I listened to your dulcet tones while driving from Canberra to Adelaide for Gather Round. Two hours of what would otherwise have been monotonous driving, disappeared in no time.

    PS. We are convinced that our voices in the crowd will make a huge difference, and a win over Ess’don will prove to be the turning point in the season for our beloved Dees!

    Just finished listening to the podcast, thanks Andy, Binman, George and all contributors you covered a lot of territory. We are in a lot of trouble but I agree that we need to press on with the new game plan and we need to get a better tactician up in the box, we really do miss Adem Yze’s management and guidance, especially with a couple of new coaches and I don’t think that learning the ropes is the best way to learn coaching at AFL level. A great listen but so many problems, hopefully getting a few more young guns who can kick may bring us all a bit of joy going forward.😁👍

    Loved this pod gents.

    Was a bit concerned for binners when he was talking about trading out trac and clarry or playing clarry as a forward, however I knew he was OK when he was postulating about the potential for our lack of fitness to be of design. Oh yes, loading sermons have started early this year and I'm here for it 😅

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.
