  1. Of course we did...
  2. Interesting how it's only other teams that 'get up and are hungry' after a loss, never the Dees. Each game is an individual entity - and has no baring on the next. Unless you believe that the only way to win, is permanently having no confidence the week before playing the Dees, unless you win and in which case, you're supremely confident? [censored], it's even confusing for me to make sense of this logic.
  3. What favours Gold Coast- a game at Marvel? Would we see Big Bad Benny kick 8 goals?

    What's the drama? They merely need to refuel. It's likely they'll stop in Alice and head on to Perth...
  5. That's so funny. I just presumed all of us who post on here have no mates and watch the game in a isolation whereby we can vent our fury. (heaps of projection in that statement).
  6. They've got a 'quarantine corridor' Ps... really sorry for you and the last minute announcement/derailment of attending the game.
  7. King, Ainsworth and Sexton to have a field day then ?
  8. *am bemused by the adulation of Clarkson. His time has passed.
  9. Ugh, so I've had a weekend sabbatical from my dear wife and dear child, I've ended up in a place where there is internet 2001 style... 1 bar - 3G on my phone... I was happy to have some quiet time and just sloth around by myself in my Y-fronts, and watch the footy tomorrow.... BUT no access... I could essentially be in the middle of the atlantic. I have no idea if this will even post. Now, some would say it's an opportunity to detox from the net... true true.. But what I want to know, is the game on TV tomorrow?
  10. Nah, that wasn't a veiled stab at you. It was me - pondering Petty - he has done a great job as a back, but I'm still seduced by his time up forward.
  11. Yeah, not excuses, but aside from flipping open the 'Is Goodwin the right guy' thread, are there any legitimate reasons?
  12. petty > tomlinson ??? (hmmm it's a big call).
  13. south west coast joke...
  14. I agree - but it would not occur due to the continuity of defence.
  15. I would hope so... my thoughts have been he is a 25 year onwards re-incarnation of a ginger-Neitz.
  16. Bloody good point - he's out of favour here on Demonland, but is that the reality for the FD?
  17. Indeed you do. Go Dees.
  18. That's exactly the sentiment I attach to the coach of a 13-4-1 team!
  19. Mmmm, how Lachy Hunter got away with a rushed point not been called - post deliver to Jordon to bring it to 3 points astounds me. There were 2 umpires within about 5 metres either side of him. I'm not typically up for conspiracy theories, but I may just be turning.
  20. Is that the answer? Then what are you alluding to?

    The image is drawn from a workshop given by the AFL educators to early career coaches/staff. As it says up the top - it's an example. So it's not an accurate plan for our team, or individuals , but we can use it as an interpretation within a range of confidence of what is occurring.
  22. Really nicely put synopsis there @Lord Nev
  23. No mention of all the hot topics of Demonland either! Loading Poor coaching Arrogance Mental Fragility

    Hi, find attached a generic pdf from the web. To be clear this is not my area of expertise in sport, but goes some way to explaining what is going on. Volume = Time spent. Technique = type training aerobically or anaerobically Y axis = % of maximum for an individual. This could also be useful
