Brock McLean going backwards & Col Sylvia moving forward. Brock Maclean had a half hearted effort today and it really stood out gave collingwood atleast 3 - 4 goals by lazy turnovers. Coaches need to make the hard call on him plus a few others to move forward and be succesful? We as supporters shouldnt have to witness this laziness & pea hearted attempts towards the football. PS Look what happened when Col put head & body on the line fantastic game again

Brock is a scrumber. Like Jones. Too slow and not a good enough football brain.

Criticize his game all you like, but if anyone feels the need to call him lazy and a pea heart, they do not deserve a response, because that statement is both offensive and so so so wrong.

Totally agree with you here HammerTime. There is no doubt Brock loves the club and always wanna give 100%. But is just seems his body is not working the way he would like to. He is TERRIBLY slow, not only in running, but also in his disposal and decision making. He had something like 6 clangers today and had a kicking effiecincy of of 17%! Numbers that just aren;t good enough for this standard, let alone a future captain of this club! Maybe a run in the 2's, just to get some cofidence back, might be the avenue to see the real Brock back!

There's nothing wrong with Brock's footy brain. His body's not right. Simple.

Some of his decsion making and his disposal is really second rate. And that comes from above the shoulders.

And he is sllooowwwwww! And around Beamer and Jones , the three molasses brothers looker slower.

You're absolutely right Rhino god we looked slow through the middle today.

I know he's not much but when's Buckley back?

At least he provides a bit of run and carry. People say we are losing games because of our forward line I beg to differ I think its cause of our one paced, one dimensional midfield.

He isnt. Buckley has OP and is still 6 weeks away. He has pace but he just butchers the ball and I think Bucks is in doubt come seasons end when the list is finalised.

AFL site has 1 clanger and 51% (interesting they have Sylvia at #1 with 6) .

Where did you pull these from?

I have my stats wrap here for those interested.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
