Hopefully this means everyone is at the game.

3 goals down early. I'm hearing at 'ology that Green might be hurt, Bate has been taken out by Miller and possibly Grimes has been stretchered off.

Hoping it's some kind of bad attempt at humour.

They are not running hard enough. When the ball is turned over, everyone around the contest stands around and looks at Hawthorn players taking the ball away.

RUN FFS!

From what I can glean he took a good hit, but is back, and no-one else is injured. Small mercies.

Doesn't stop from the embarrassment though.

We're at the G, and we haven't scored a goal halfway through the second quarter. What a disgrace.

I'm not one for madness on here, but come on, I was pessimistic and even I didn't see this coming.

Pathetic.

What hope do our young guys have when they have got f*** all to look up to.

A few of our "senior" blokes need to realise that these kids will play well above their (AFL) experience, providing they have great on-field mentors and leaders.

Do these blokes actually know each other? At times it seems as if they've been introduced a few minutes before the bounce.

The BASIC skill errors are still embarassing to watch and are only emphasised in the packs. Our forwards don't look like taking a mark i50, let alone kicking one between the big sticks. It's just horrible to watch. The commentators are trying to find some positives for the MFC but are struggling in that endeavour because there are few to be found.

I know it's the first half in Round 1 and I'm just hot under the collar, but real questions need to be asked of Bailey now. When a team is playing like this, there's something seriously wrong.

I don't want to start an arguement, but is it Bailey? Does he kick and handball the ball for these guys on the field? The players do need to take a majority of the responsibility for missing targets.

Naah, Bailey deserves some portion of the blame. They have to be educated, and inspired.

The problems are SO deep seeded, that even Matthews coming in would need 3 seasons to get them competitive.

We have been a league joke for '07, 08 and '09... and sorry to say, but going by the game we're playing on an equivalent aged, injury depleted side in the Hawks, we will be THE league joke this season.

I have never been more miserable as a demons supporter. And thats saying something. 4 years of this is enough. Heads will roll if drastic changes don't come soon.

What an absolute joke this football team is.

Words cant describe. An absolute disgrace to themselves and us. Still the worst team in the comp by a mile.

An embarassment.

Just fold and put us all out of our misery.

Sorry to break it to you mate, but Bailey wont be sacked this year if that's the head you're after.

I would start by dropping some of our senior blokes who think they are "safe". They need to answer our questions, then we can work out if we need to look higher up.

Posted

I'm with you Dan.

I'm not going to get into to blame game of coach vs players, as that's a tired old debate. But with an entire pre-season to work on getting some cohesion, there seems to be almost no evidence of it. I love this club and we've already sat through 3 years of this, so what's another year.. But there's no doubt that Bailey is now associated with a losing culture at the club, and frankly the time for excuses is over.

Posted

About to head back to the TV for the second half feeling like I'm lining up for some horrible punishment.

You are unfortunately lining up for some horrible punishment.......

I am never one to over criticise but this is embarrassing and they should be ashamed of their performance to date.

I hope for better but I am not convinced it will ever truly happen.

You can ignore that as it is misery and reality talking, sorry :( !!!


Posted

I dont even know what to say? Sack Bailey? Drop half the team to Casey? We all know none of those will happen.

But how the hell half our team can have absolutely no impact on a game is beyond me. Miller? Joel MacDonald, Davey, Dunn. All old heads that do nothing week in, week out.

I have never been so gutted as a demon supporter. Not even the 2000 gf was this bad...

about 16 other names in that category Wonna!

Only 16? Bit generous there Billy?!!!

Goal to Miller.....

Haha, too true Queen! Some get a little precious if you state the truth though!!!

Let's talk about the positive though - Scully will be a champ. He should be number 1 best player for us today. Great effort in this p!ss-poor team.

And a majority put Bate in our top 5 players???

Connolly has been quoted that Jordie Mc will be a 200+ gamer, who for???

    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

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    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

    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. 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
