Fox Footy Analysis Dermot, King, Robbo MfC DNA
Sir Why You Little replied to Hogan2014's topic in Melbourne Demons
Fair call and I agree, but you can’t expect your opponent to not have the ball during the game, particularly in a final when its Red Hot. It’s the arm wrestle and serious tackles can change momentum very quickly -

Sir Why You Little replied to Hogan2014's topic in Melbourne Demons
A good hard Tackle means an opponent is stopped or impeaded from moving forward and they lose control of the ball (Holding or Dropping) so i would say it is an important part of pressure, not the only form, but a very important one -

Sir Why You Little replied to Hogan2014's topic in Melbourne Demons
I understand what your saying, but our zones have been breaking down regularly since 2018 and if we are also 18th in the tackle count, that is lamentable. These things should be fixed during a game, but they are not obviously. Yes Failed Tackles would be an interesting read, once again that is something that should be easily addressed. Top level Footballers should excel At tackling opponents. Are we frightened of the Sling?? -

I wonder how high the Eagles are on that list when playing in Perth? Tackling is not the only Barometer, but it certainly ramps up in the finals, and against Top Sides We will get nowhere being 18th, unless our kicking skills are 100% spot on -

If we don’t stick tackles the workrate is not up. Pressure is all about good tackles We are 18th out of 18 added to that we are not super quick on the outside No chance of doing anything in a finals series with numbers like that -

Sorry but Tackle’s beat 1%’s everytime, everytime and we are the worst at it. Finals are all about hard tackles that stick. A F i am guessing you have been watching this Club since the 90’s/2000’s I already know that you have little regard for the past, that is fine, but i shall continue to tell you that the same problems have been repeating themselves for decades Look up AFLstats.com and go to 1971 and follow the Scores/Ladder Round by Round. That will give you a reasnoable idea of what i am talking about -

It is certainly Cultural and has been that way for decades. Mental Fragility and timidity were the first discussions i had on here in 2005. We are still discussing it now. That is Culture 100% We are 18th for tackles in the League We do not work hard enough That is Culture when it happens year after year -

18th in the Comp for tackles says it all to me. We are not hard enough Is Goodwin strong enough to make changes? Changes that become the Standards -

This is why i find it amazing with Posters on here who say “We have had a problem doing this for 10 years” No it actually goes back a lot further than that. Different People, but same problems. Win a few and then fall over badly....

Inability to kick in the wind
Sir Why You Little replied to Rodney (Balls) Grinter's topic in Melbourne Demons
Footy used to be played in the wind every Saturday it was the Number 1 Tactic “Kick Long with the breeze” Todays kids play in controlled atmospheres. Not their fault But i would love to see more basic training. Drop punts on a windy day.....Practice -
