Simon Goodwin on SEN (26/6/19)
This, the Clarry goal was a great piece of play and Weed's muptiple effort to spoil, follow up and hand off the Clarry was crucial.

Injury List - Season 2019
To those saying we should have taken Joel Smith off the ground, we had a JLT cup game to win and he kicked 4 while planted in the goal square. I don't see what the problem is.

Max Gawn's season
I love that Max doesn't play for frees or conplain to umpires. In fact our players are pretty good in this respect. Compare our players to the likes of Walters, Dangerfield, Ablett etc who all winge to the umpires whenever things dont go their way.

Demons Grand Plan for Yarra Park Training HQ
Negative - Box Hill is a wasteland and too far away from our heart (MCG and Melbourne's Yarra area) and where our supporters are strong in numbers (Bayside). We should build a replica MCG literally underground kind of like the base in the last Matrix installment.

Demons Grand Plan for Yarra Park Training HQ
Why would we add the expense of moving trees, chop them down, put them in a big pile and burn them.

What's more important for us...
What could possibly go wrong? On unrelated matter, Cam Schwab popped up on my LinkedIn feed the other day.

What's more important for us...
Draft picks and lots of them. If we bottom out and "manage" players re surgeries and learning new positions then we should be poised to build a list over the next 3-4 years

Injury List - Season 2019
It will take more than a sore foot for Rick Lever to miss. Pump it full of the good stuff and put him out there.

Dees Confirm Chase for Arsenal Fitness Guru
We should go after Dean Robinson. He has a solid track record at Geelong, is known to push the boundaries and as far as I'm aware is available.

Mid-season Coaching Revamp
Good question, he could probably be found in the ice baths

Mid-season Coaching Revamp
From some of the comments her on DL re injury management we have so many fitness managers on this forum that there is no need to cast the net further than DL.

What is left to look forward to in 2019
If we win thr next 5 in a row we will then enter the mathematical possibility conversation - one can only dream. In seriousness I'd oike to see our best 22 gel and start playing some good footy, finish the season with minimal injury, make some changes in the off season (not to drastic) and give 2020 a massive crack.

AFL Coaches IQ Index
Re Don Pyke, did him staring at his players Tony Abbot style when we smashed them last year have any weighting and if so ehat was its impact?

Opposition Accuracy is Killing Us
I reckon we should base game plan on the philosophy that 'If you kick enough points then you don't need to kick goals'

Missing Jake Melksham
I think it is the Norm Smith curse. In fact I'm quite sure we will find that Gary Pert is in some wayy related to Norm Smith. It's the only plausible explanation and I'm bewildered as to why the media haven't been asking the hard questions re thhis connection.

Missing Jake Melksham
I think its as simple as the team is under immense pressure and its impacting their decision making and execution. Start to win, the pressure reduces and the skills will improve.
