Don't know how much game time Bail has had, but I have loved his hardness in the contest.

Im so happy, Collingwood are a premiership chance, I dont care if we dont win today just keep going how we are. Newton doing well, a little bit worried about Strauss

Very, very good signs. We missed two very easy goals just prior to half time (Jamar and Scully). Our forward half is working well for the first time in way too long.

I was depressed this time last week. Fast forward ONE week, the adrenalin and hope is back. Keep it up, Dees - we're right in this game.

Bate has been terrible up until half time. Good game of football, the big test is the third quarter. Definitely feeling the love for McKenzie.
You got that right. he is a darn sight better than Valenti was.

Definitely feeling the love for McKenzie.

Likewise. So aggressive, in all the right ways. Probably the highlight of the game so far for me.

Bate has been shocking, looks sluggish.

I dont think his ready.

week is a long time in footy. improvement in output was always going to happen.

Best to half time in my eyes: Petterd, Trengove, McKenzie, Grimes. Bit of a theme there.

Besides the miss at goal, loving Jamar's pantsing of Jols.

Bailey needs to single him out and give him a blast.

Scully... 6 touches and 3 frees against? Going by the pre-season he should come into the game in the second half. Interesting trend developing with him. His fitness keeping him in good stead in the last quarter.

Juice needs to kick a few for us to win. Petterd can't be expected to kick 6+.

Great first half Dees,5 points down,who would've thought against a top 4 team but that's what pressure does.I've been banging on about going man on man across the ground against the Pies and taking their time away when they get the ball.41 tackles to half time which is 80 pace again,that's where we need to start,they are a much better side on paper and grass for that matter but our pressure is troubling them,giving them no space.Grimes is killing Didak and Petterd carving up Shaw.Contested possession to half time is 67 each with Jamar on 9 the most on the ground.We are handballing less this week but we just don't have a key forward to kick to.I said on Tuesday Newton should come in for Miller and he reads the play better than Miller and is a better kick,a win there.

Can we keep it up in the second half?

Quite right.

Bater is someone who needs to be completely matchfit... can't seem to work himself into a game.

Will be heaps better within the next 2 weeks.

im not at the game or watching, but looking at the stats Bennell has not touched it, is he injured?


Posted

I must have Grimes' babies. That is all! :)

Father/Son Rule! Would love another half a dozen Junior Grimes running around on the paddock

Who's gonna kick the goals in the last quarter?

Green and Petterd won't surprise anymore, and will need to earn every ball. If Newton does nothing, we're going to be in trouble. Who's on him?

Wouldn't it be lovely if Green could pop up with a few in the last? Get his personal best, and win the game for us in his 200th, at a time when the demons were more in need of a win than just about at any time? Would cement his name as MFC champion.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
