Just listened to it. Not much.

Stated that he was surprised he was delisted. (Heard this previously). Although it was interesting to hear him mention that Melbourne told him that Brisbane were looking to trade him as early as round 20 last year. Mentioned that Grimes and McKenzie were future stars of the AFL. He was particularly impressed/inspired by Grimes continuous gut running deep into the last quarter against the Pies. Also mentioned with a bit of a tongue in cheek that the G is a bit of a hoodoo ground for him. That was really about it.

Had a good game last week Joel. Will be interesting to see what happens when we have him, Garland, Rivers, Frawley and Warnock all up and running in the defence. Can they all fit???

No mention of the most visible cramp in television history?

During the last quarter you see the veins in Joel's leg bulging and going in to spasm. Awful.

Watch the replay and listen to Dunstall's reaction.

He could possibly play on a wing or tag a player. Got options with him.

Wow? KB has guests? I'd have thought his show was just two hours of him mumbling to us all about how great he is and how he's right about everything and "Kevin Sheedy should coach Richmond, you know. It's about time they got Danny Frawley out of there. Where's my mashed pears?"

Horrible stuff, his calf muscle looked like it disconnected from his achilles.

He did some good things on saturday, could be an important player for us given his experience realtive to our other backmen.

Ooh yeh, I remember seeing that from MCC level 2. That was pretty rank.

I didn't even read your post; I'm just enamoured with your avatar...

As did I.

I was shocked when he managed to keep going.

Of course, the idiot buffoon near me was complaining about both MacDonald not kicking straight away, and the umpire calling time off.

Of course they can. Didn't you see Frawley line up on Medhurst last week, and defeat him? A couple of our defenders (ie Frawley and Macdonald) can play tall or short.

Very solid backline without any superstars.

He played OK. Made a few ugly mistake in the first two rounds that kind of justified Brisbane delisting him. I guess it's good that we have an experienced played in the side, but I can't imagine him being part of our long term plans to be honest. He's another Craig Ellis at best.

More visible than Bennell's "cramp"? Managed to fight through the pain barrier soon after.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.
