Can you tell Watts' starting position? Half forward?

Sounds to me like he's playing miles out of the forward line. On the times he takes a grab (and don't the callers get excited) you always hear he's 2 kicks from goal.

let try something different... put rivers or someone else in the FL...

Frawley? Or do we need him in defence?

PJ.. what a joke... get rid of him

I'm his biggest supporter. And even I say he's cooked here. This is exactly when he could have shown what he's worth. Not that he's had a huge amount of opportunity. But against this mob? He SHOULD have taken some sort of grab by now.

That Rosa goal... proof.

We don't want this.

We're lucky to even be close. We're done.

Gonna need a massive effort to come back from here. 2 goals in a low scoring game is a problem

3/4 time, and we're 2 goals down.

Those first two to Kennedy are looking a bit nasty now, aren't they?

Moloney, Bruce, Garland, McKenzie, Frawley, Rivers, Jamar, and especially Grimes and JMac have been very good.

But we have a LOT of passengers.

Bennell, PJ, and particularly Sylvia have been not so good. In general though, our forward line are a mess. There's ok names in there, who are all doing enough (Green, Watts, Hughes all showing a bit here and there).... but no-one good enough to take the game by the scruff of the neck.

Bate exempt cos of his injury. Also, he's somehow playing ok.

The difference between this team and the one we've liked watching this year is actually the midfield. Scully and Trengove aren't doing as much as in previous weeks, which is completely understandable.

Not done, we haven't even started! Backs are doing well, but under the hammer the whole day.

Watts has been playing between the 50s - started on Glass in the f50 early, but Bails moved him quickly for no reason.. a shocking coaching performance from Bailey today.

we look tired.

LeCras will kick this second attempt and does...

We are a rabble.

Worst we've looked since the Hawks game. And we're not a HUGE amount ahead of that.

Posted

15 minutes to go here. We need to kick 4 straight.

We're done.

What a humiliating loss.

Posted

What an appalling game of footy. That's the worst part. We weren't outmuscled, or outplayed...

We were just shitter than a REALLY [censored] team.

15.21 kicked for the game.

Amateur hour.

Bate has been atrocious this quarter, pity, he's been ok up to now

Give him a break. He's been one of our best today, and that's with a bung ankle. Him and Green are just about our only forwards. As an aside, how clean are Watts' hands? It's a shame he's got a bit of Bruce about his kicking action. I hope that was just nerves, but I'm a little worried about that.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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
