My 3 word player analysis V The Umpires
Ok but totally biased against Viney. Hit up Brown for a goal. Hit up Kozzy for a goal. Kicked super goal in the third. Nine tackles. At the contest. 3 words. “Very good game”.

My 3 word player analysis V The Umpires
Umps. free kicks count 11-23 to favour the Dogs In 3 words Were the difference Totally fuc&&)$&(n inconsistent Favoured The Dogs Throwing is illegal Absolutely killed us Crucified the Dees finally … Speak up Goodwin (just say “thought we were a bit stiff on the night and have to review the rule book”)

CHANGES: Rd 20 vs Gold Coast
Out. Harmes. Anb. Jackson. Jordon Harmes is captain fumbles and turnovers. Anb gets footy and turns into trouble or messes it all up . Jackson looked tired and overran the footy too much. Get some volts into him. Second efforts disappeared. Jordon looked cooked. Went to ground in contest in. Sparrow. Melksham. Weid. Jones if fit (otherwise it’s Vandenburg )

VOTES: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
6 Oliver. At the contest. Won the footy. Drove us forward all night. 5 Gawn Won the ruck all night Didn’t get protection or benefit from fumbling mids 4 Viney Really tried to lift us. Great heart . At the contest. 3 Lever He’s dependable. Solid 2 Hunt run run and run. Some great line running and chases. But some dumb moments 1 Trac. Lots of the footy. Great first goal. Missed targets and turnovers costly. Bont beat him and Trac didn’t do well at his defensive responsibilities

GAMEDAY: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
Twice had really smart plays but like others, he has been disappointing

Trade Targets
We had LJ and kozzzy. Then I reckon it was Deven Robertson, Trent Rivers and Jeremy Sharp. Happy with the Riv.

GAMEDAY: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
Agree. He’s got three chances. Dropped a sitter. He’s as bad as Weideman. Runs around. Needs to kick three or four in the second half. Two bad misses. 25 metres out. Slight angles. Two misses were killers. ?? Got to show something NOW At the moment, I’m looking to see if Mitch Brown is still injured. Really that’s how disappointing Weid and Bbb are so far.

GAMEDAY: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
First half. X Goalkicking ??? really Ben Brown x only 2 goals 22 inside 50s x dumb footy Fritsch (three metres out and knees it!!). The dumb bros Harmes. Viney. X kicking efficiency 44% poor v Dogs 60% x Scache beating McDonald (come on Tom) ???umpires free kicks 4-14 ✅May Lever ummm. daylight ✅Trac goal ✅Gawn 40-8 hitouts But needs to go forward with force Oliver. Lots of the footy but ineffective to create goals.

Trade Targets
Agree. JT definitely had him as an option in the 2019 draft. Good pace and skilled. Suns has plenty of good youngsters.

Trade Targets
Fiorini again looking very good today. Good skills. Inside and outside wingman. At the moment, he’d probably been an upgrade on Brayshaw.
-
NON MFC: Rd 19 2021
Cox as the sub. That’s a terrible choice. Tanking???

Trade Targets
I think the reality has to kick in. We are unlikely to have the players, trade picks or $$$ available for a Josh Kelly, Andrew Gaff, Adrian Cerra etc. (though Josh Kelly would be the perfect fit for our midfield).

Trade Targets
I only watched the 3rd quarter of the game Crows v Eagles but Tom Lynch from the Crows looked in good form. Back from injury, he played across half forward and took some good marks. Nice skills, kicked a smart goal and setup another. Hit targets. Given his 31, I think he’s a free agent and probably unlikely to get another contract with the crows. Think he would add to our list and be very handy addition whilst we’re in the premiership window. I’m usually not a big fan of such 30+ recruits, he might be one player to consider in the off season and not command big $ to stretch the salary cap. Just a thought.

If we lose to the Hawks, I will ...
We are not even close to being like the Hawks 3-peat team. Hopefully we can get back to form this week by beating the dogs. Tough one. Strangely we are more confident of a win v the top teams than v the lower ranked teams. That’s life as a Demons supporter.

Who the hell is our goal kicking coach!?
Seriously now Question. If the Dees had to take a shot from 40 metres out on a slight angle to win the game, who do we want to take the kick ??? Fritsch? Tom McDonald? Salem? Couldn’t think of anyone else in our team v Hawks that I’d be optimistic about kicking the winning goal.

Dees vs Bulldogs This Week
Thank god we wouldn’t be playing them in the finals !!
-
Who the hell is our goal kicking coach!?
Agree agree agree. Seemingly the forwards want it in the pockets. Or they all run to the one spot. I can see the midfield waiting for options but the forwards currently lack the cohesion of demanding the footy.
-
Who the hell is our goal kicking coach!?
Agree. Heat now on. Perhaps seek out a Carey or Lloyd or Brereton. Even just as a consultant in the short term.

POSTGAME: Rd 18 vs Hawthorn
Goody says : Dees lacked intensity. Hawks were hungrier. Out tackled and out muscled us we had opportunities hawks good. Came to play Its a lesson. Not RUTHLESS ENOUGH IN THE AREAS WE VALUE. 7 goals from our turnovers. Didn’t execute good enough 58 entries. 24 scores. Inaccuracy cost us !!!! petty one of our better players.
-
Who the hell is our goal kicking coach!?
Absolutely. It might kill our season. Simply knew Pickett and Brayshaw would miss. Kick either and we win. Simple shots straight in front. Too many misses in too many games now.

The trade Jack Viney thread
Unsubscribe. Viney is a bloody champion. If he could hit a target, he would be an A grader. Viney was one of our best tonight Not why we had a draw!!
