"I honestly can't see us not making finals this year because I think we've got a fantastic list.'' - Clint Bartram (Geelong Advertiser)

Good to hear that Clint is upbeat about the season and our list potential - And you have to think that someone in his position would have a good idea about it.

It sounds genuine to me....You Guys?

    i work with mainly Blues and Pies supporters , verbal jousting is a daily ritual about the footy but i find it insulting that our own suporters write us off so early. while we have a new coach we shouldnt be compared to the Hawks because ND with all of his faults continued to blood new talent leaving DB a lot more to work with than outside supporters think. if we finish 8th with other Victorian teams finishing above us we could play ( on the basis we win) all our finals at the G. and with a bit of luck and this new mindset..............

    Yes....and can someone give me all of the names of the critical players that we now don't have on our list, compared with the '06 list which played off in the final against the Dockers just two seasons ago?

    I am happy to read that, I for one am glad that he believes that the club should and will make the finals.

    Indeed, although there is a whole lot of fluff in the article and not enough "I'm fit, ready for Round 1 and will win the Brownlow soon" :rolleyes::lol:

    He's a gem though!

    I've read a couple of times how DB has the players sitting regular exams on game plans etc and find it very reassuring.

    I've not heard of this being done before in footy (although doesn't mean that it hasn't) and feel that it is an excellent way to ensure that every player knows the team rules inside out. All players will want to do well in these exams with a new coach on board and DB can also pinpoint who he needs to spend extra time with based on results.

    Neil Daniher did this kind of thing in his first year in 1998 and a lot of fuss was made about it.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
