Demon Dynasty

Swans on top second half of this quarter

Two impiring shockers in the middle this quarter

Beautifully read Turner

Ellison having a nice 2nd quarter down back. Like what im seeing from this young fella

Swans playing a plus one in defence (17) Moniz on to Melk who hits up the Weid for his 3rd in the square

So if it hasnt been covered.... Steele in for Smith & Bell in for Brown

Turner & McVee vn first quarter

They wouldnt bother with Brown this late unless there was an issue. Looks like the switch is on.

Boys sharing it around nicely. Baker doing some nice link work on the southern wing. Chandler end up with it and lace out to the Weid who goals directly in frint from 30

Rivers puts a lovely pass out in front of Weid who didnt take the opp. Rebounds back around to Grey who picks it up from outside 50 runs in and kicks a lovely goal from about 45

McVee's started off nicely. Weid getting involved

Steel for the win layzie... and don't call me old!

Windy Hill was the pitts in terms of facilities and viewing the game from what i recall. I used to have to stand on empty beer cans to see the game properly. I do recall getting in for free at one match though as there was a hole/gap under the wire fence. The toughest ground from my experience was Waverley Park. Most fights i witnessed were out there for some reason. From memory mostly Hawk supporters. Arrogant bunch of....

Not even a question. Roaming's butt in someone's face as he bends over to imterview his fav player

They have to yell it each time as if the player does the opposite after being told he is going to be free kicked. The coaching i can't stand is when the umps tell a player running near or.alomgside the mark, even when right behind an opponent, to 'Move out/Away'. As you say they are well aware of the rules. Stop coaching them FCS.

Been the difference tonight. Such an accurate kick and works super hard to get separation on opponent.

How long have you worked in the teaching profession Brownie?

Really sick of hearing both. Heaps of the outside 5 watching the Doggies as they mostly play it that way. Easiest solution ....Channel 7 dont mic the umps! But yeh need to lose this rule

If a player doesn't stand the mark immediately (the time to do so appears to be uniquely umpire dependent lol) and is a step or two away then he will be instructed to move back at least 5 meters from the mark (as to how any player knows exactly where that is i have no idea) with the umpire telling him "outside 5". Sometimes of course this is the player's doing in that he is deliberately stepping away from the mark anyway (because he wants to) and the ump is still telling him outside 5. In other words that player can now no longer go forward and stand the mark, he must stay "Outside 5". The Doggies mostly (but not always) prefer to play outside 5. And at times they sometimes choose to stand the mark or they get caught on the mark and can't go outside 5 after the ump calls 'Stand'. The short answer is it can be both but each call for outside 5 relates to one of the above scenarios. Geelong mostly prefer to get up in the opponents face and 'Stand' the mark. Hope that helps Sue

It's pretty much a Doggy thing. They prefer to step back from the mark and not 'Stand' the mark but instead go back and protect an area. If they dont stand the mark then that area has to be outside 5 meters from the mark. A great idea for defenders in an OOTF situation as they can protect against the inside kick, a play on inside for a long raking kick over the back and/ or the switch a little better instead of standing the mark on the line and watching as the player runs off into field to do one of the above.

He's really earning himself a bad wrap. Someone at the club needs to take him aside and have a little chat

Yeh im just using a short version as pretty much every rock fan's aware of the enter part. I have no gripe with the song or the group Coach. It's a beauty. But everyone's using it and our original intro song was Hell's Bells which was far more fitting. Just my opinion.

It used to be Hells Bells NC but pretty sure they changed it to Sandman .... Hells Bells obviously more fitting

More likely unwell? Looked fine last week although i didnt see the last 10 minutes

Fantastic outcome. Need more of it. Get down there and support all the boys if you can. Plenty of good talent running around including our Permiership players Hibb & Rivers. JVR, Moniz (silky and could be a beauty given time!!), Ellison (not on list but a real goer....possibly a better watch up forward), Mitch, Turner, Daw, Weid, Chandler. Munro & White great stalwarts for Casey both play a very high standard. What a great lineup and incentive to get to the G early, just like old times, and support the boys.
