Much better kick inside 50 and good mark ?

I’m convinced when our coaching staff say “we need to get better at kicking it inside 50” they really mean we’re going to focus on our contested possesion and keep boming it long inside 50

These [censored] behinds could cost us

They need to stop cutting right over their last 5 steps when taking set shots. rhey could just copy McDonald and we’d be sweet

FMD we don’t learn

Wasting opportunities big time so far. Inside 50s 7/0 for 2 behinds

Why did Hogan run hard right to take that set shot???

Players looking greasy already, could be a slippery pill tonight ?

Nah Mums tougher (Hi Dad? (he gets on here a bit))! bloody cold in winter, so the olds are thawing out in Darwin for a long weekend ?

If you bump into my dad while your up there say helllo for me. He lives not far from you actually, in Trentham. Edit: Sorry meant to send this to Bitter!

Bitter?

Cheers for both posts TC. Enjoy the game ???

Hey Tarax My Mum and Dad are up your way for the game and a weekend of R+R. Dads actually a member here on Demonland but he is old and having password issues (he will be reading this by the way, hi Dad?). He called and asked me to ask you if there is anything happening before the game either formal or informal in the local area that fellow Demon supporters can attend? Cheers in advance ?

When the club asked for members to donate old scarves to give out to newbies today, I’m not sure that’s the receptical you were suppose to put it in! ? (Though that’s where it belongs because we stink)

Just out of interest, did anyone know Fitzroy have a higher winning percentage than us on all time games?

Pretty hard to measure or quantify I would say, but I’m very confident that if we had the training facilities of some of the wealthier clubs we would be better than what we are. How much better again would be impossible to measure. Would we be better by enough of a percentage to win the game on Friday night? Maybe, maybe not. Again impossible to measure. What I’m very confident of is that if we were to train on a ground the same width as the MCG, we would be a damn sight better on the MCG. Enough to have won the Geelong game I would say. So in short, yes I do think better facilities will help us win games.

If great training facilities don’t help you win games, why are just about every other club investing millions into theirs rather than spending it on something else? Must just be for the bling factor I guess?

When did Rance switch codes?

Or move it to our new fortress.....Etihad!!!

For what it’s worth I always thought Fawlkner Park would be an option, mentioned it in another thread about facilities, will settle with Yarra Park though ??

Interesting when you look at google maps to see why we play better on narrow grounds and collingwood and Richmond play better on grounds the size of MCG. collingwoods training ground is exact size of mcg playing surface and Richmond’s is similar, Goschs is super narrow! bring on our new facility ASAP!

I’d happily have paid 200-300k to move him on. He’s proven that we were right to get rid of him and we picked up Frisch who has shown heaps already. Was and always will be a great decision by the club.

Certainly does, Bulldogs went from 39k to 47k post premiership!

Only if you think Mt Hotham is a ridiculous location?

Wow, haven’t been to this thread in a while. This is some seriously highbrow s h i t ! (pun intended)
