Demon Dynasty

Round 11, 2022 MCG - Demons vs Dockers Gee i hate losing! Oh well. Couldn't make it tonight nor have i watched the match due to family commitments. Might be a good thing! For mine the form glitch appeared to have started last week where our team score was off the 2021 average score by a significant 10% with a 60.45. This week was our second lowest team score and it was a massive 17.5% off our 2021 H&A season average. The lowest team score was against Port in Rnd 5 with a 54.53 Also our lowest disposal efficiency for the season at only 65% (Docker's pressure?) which is well below AFL average (approx 73%). If Tracc was truly sick then it might explain his lowest score this season by a country mile (& possibly ever since i've been keeping records or close to it). Maybe he wasn't the only one effected tonight? Then there's BBB, Weid & Melk, who disappointedly would appear to have barely fired a shot between them? Viney must have played a reasonable game given he topped the tables this evening?? Even without seeing tonight's game i'm sticking with my statement a while back that we appear to be short a Key Forward who can take contested marks and kick nicely from 40 to 50 out and sometimes slightly beyond. In the short term as a stop gap could this be Mitch Brown? With Smith out for quite a while we also lack an extra spare tall down back to cover off the likes of May, Lever & Petty if one goes down injured etc. Or do we just plug Maxy/Plugga Mac in there? I would also argue we are in need of a quick runner off HB who can break a line or two quite consistently and hit up a few targets through the middle accurately or go long to the 50 or so if that's an option. If wishes were horse!

So isnt there an emergency option for this? Why would you take a crook player into any match otherwise?

Surely Mitch gets the nod over Weid now. Keep blooding JVR in the McGoos till he is truly set for the jump up to AFL. Might be next season.

The move to FB was his 'Jump the Shark' moment i feel

Wouldnt have made a big difference but like for like (for Lingers) it should've been Baker

His finishing inside 50 needs some work

If there was a game where Weid is to stand up... this is it And BBB!

Put Weid into the middle for Jacko's role (in support when needed), Jacko takes Maxy's role and Maxy to CHB

No... and after the siren there is no time to be wasted. Nothing to see here

Buddy Brutal!

No sarcasm emoji bobby!

Yes they might have confused those in yellow and black as an umpire committing the dissent!

Yes because once the siren goes the ball/time clock is dead. Kicking the ball away is considered a free for time wasting. Kicking the ball away after the siren? Not time wasting .... no free kick (or in this case a 50).

Technically the ump should have reversed the free for dissent 😅

Buddy, McCernerny, McCartin, Heeney stood up and a few other solid role players ...their tails will be up next week & Buddy loves the G. Should be a great game. Hopefully theyre rooted and will be a bit off

Late call on the free and crowd going nutz...you cant expect a player to know who the free kick was for as he picks it up in that situation. Correct call umps

Nankervarse is a free kick machine....and not in a.good way

Back to type 😅 What a BS HTB there....play on every day when you drop it like a hot potato

More "Dissent" crappola DD

Talk about money kick!

Woweee folks! What a steal that was

Crotchin this is on you!!!!!

Why on earth would you handball back inside within 20 meters under that sort of pressure.... just bail it with a tumble punt wide as possible
