Enjoyed the Podcast this week ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Was driving back from Shepparton this afternoon and it made the trip go really quick

I thought the highlights this week were

Binman’s stats. Very thorough. Full debrief on lots of stats from pressure to ratings to contested stuff. I liked the player ratings section

Binmans rant on the umpires especially the Rivers incident in the last quarter where the umpire from 90 metre away gave the decision AND as well as the Kozzzzy non free kick for the blatant trip and the subsequent AFL whitewash! The umps killed our chances. Thats truth telling.

George’s despair at Fritta’s continued poor form, poor goalkicking and general lack of any pressure (we all share his pain). Fritta can’t survive another week !!

David from Adelaide and his comments. I agree with his dismay at Lever’s comments I heard similar talk about the difficulties in managing a change !

Andy playing the SEN Commentary from Gerard Whateley on the Kozzzzy non free kick! Worst umpire howler EVER!!

The POD was informative and again reflected all of us at the moment … we all love the Dees with the unwavering passion and hope but with a sense of anger, frustration, disappointment and desperation.

    Thanks Andy, George and Binman another great listen, I have been holding off listening because I was still disappointed about how we finished the game. However I thoroughly enjoyed the wrap up of the game, Binman passion in particular and I agree with his comments that we should persist with the new game plan even if it costs us games, it is a better brand of footy the more we practise it the better and fitter the group will become. Our kicking for goal was woeful the umpires pathetic and we had too many passengers in the side. Time for a change up keep turning over our bottom six until we find the right mix of players that want to contribute and bleed for the club. Thanks again, really enjoyed the podcast and also the questions raised by all posters.👍😁

    Another ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ pod guys.

    I truly loved your balance, integrity and honesty, in a show that might easily have been nothing but bitterness about ‘the one that got away’.

    I could honestly feel your heartfelt disappointment, and your ongoing passion for our beloved Dees.

    Thank you !

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • 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.
