For those of us who can't be there, is anyone planning on reporting on the intra club, say quarter by quarter with a comprehensive wrap to finish?

I'd like at least 1,000 lucid, coherent insightful words please.

I'm taking my iphone with me so, if I can transmit an the battery holds out, I'll try to provide some descriptions of play.

That would be much appreciated - and I think in your case I can take the lucid, coherent aspect for granted. Cheers

Well, we're in front but only just. MFC Red leading White. Brad Miller (2 goals), Petterd, Bail among the better players. Buckley running through the lines. Jetta kicked a nice goal. And started the second quarter with another.

We're still winning but now it's the MFC White team by 8 points. Petterd BOG to date. Martin, Garland, Grimes and Miller doing well. Neville Jetta moves well and Strauss is a good kick. No Jack Watts.

Aussie had a strong quarter and Jamie Bennell came into the game. Shane Valentii and Nathan Jones are getting a lot of the ball. Lynden Dunn looks a bigger unit this year and rookie Trent Zomer is doing OK up forward. Jake Spencer is rucking well.

Rivers looked to hurt a foot or ankle in the first quarter and hasn't been back on.

If Rivers is injured I'm calling the engagement party off, not worth it

A good win at last. Aussie, Valenti had good last quarters.

More later.

Good turn out crowd wise.

Not Playing - Robbo, Jurrah, Watts, Wheatley, Davey, Jamar, Blease, McNamara, Maric cant think of any others.

Hard to tell who was who from the new boys and the Casey fill ins.

Wona - Great looks magnificent BOG for mine.

Strauss - Boy can he kick. Really like the look of him.

Bennell - very good.

Jetta - just as good.

Whelan - good.

Garland -ditto.

Meesen - eh !

Morton - got better as the game went on plenty of touches by the end

Pettard - great physique played quite well.

I think it was about 13 goals to 11 with the whites having a win

Bigger crowd then I thought - needed to car park attendants to direct to you free parking spots

It's official, Rivers and football don't go together! :(:(

thanks mate, all questions answered there!

just a quick one, what about the ruck division? spencer?

Think Spencer will give you a contest - dont know about skills though. Big enough to play with the big boys now.

Meesen - god he look good but just doesn't get enough of it nor good at the contest IMO. Did a couple of nice things. Real chance is to turn into a ruckman that runs all day and ends up with 20 touches rather then a dominating big man

Johnson -Serviceable today

Jamar - Didn't play

Got there five minutes in and first contest I saw was the Rivers one. !

Well, he did play a whole 5 minutes, which is an achievement in itself :rolleyes:

Did you see what actually happened?

Went up for a spoil in an one on one contest side by side with his opponent and when he landed he just landed awkwardly.

Stopped and held the top of his foot and the tried to run it out for the next minute. Doc wanted him off and he tried to stay out there but did eventually come off.

Never saw him again after that.

Might of played on in a normal game. Lets remember this was a intra club game in Feb !

Lets hope it was more precautionary then anything

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
