I can't be buggered voting today, because coming up with anyone after Bate and Frawley is too hard.

Interesting you gave JG a vote though. I love the boy to death like as much as the rest, but I thought he was our WOG today. He just torched it so many times, it was very frustrating. JT wasn't too far behind in this regard.

FWIW I thought Dunn was reasonable today and I'd probably have him in my 6 somewhere.

I gave him a vote for putting his body on the line time and time again and actually having a go.

Finding 6 players who deserved votes though was a struggle. It was a toss up between him and Dunn, but Dunn has so many brainfarts each week that I can't bring myself to reward him. He makes my blood boil after 6 years in the system.

6 - Bate..obvious

5 - Frawley...another quality scalp

4 - Garland....played well, especially early when most slept

3 - Trengove.....could've finished his work a little more efficiently but was in and amongst it

2 - Scully....same as JT really

1 - Bruce....tried hard

And to all the Watts bashers....I thought he was far from the worst. Yes we saw the soles of his shoes far too often but wasn't alone there. He was up and about a bit more but Gerard Healy probably summed him up well by saying he need to show a bit more urgency.

Very hard to give a vote from a weak display. Only leaned towards the younger boys due to their excuse of being young.

Dissapointing day.

Very disappointing. We MUST start well against St.Kilda next week. I don't care if St.Kilda are the form team of the competition. We got 22 players out there and so do they. We got to be the in the game from start to finish, no excuses.

CARN THE DEES.

Watts was better was he?

Someone gave watts votes?

oh why bother..

I saw improvement in him. And I saw more effort from him than from plenty of other players. It wasn't a brilliant performance, hardly even a good one, but I thought he at least showed something compared to previous efforts.

Agree, at least Dunn kicked 2 goals and troubled their defenders just a little.

To me that's overselling Dunn immensely. He was meant to do a defensive job on Johncock, but old Stiffy had a good game.

Agree that Johncock got away from Dunn too much and the points on the day go to stiffy but Dunn was not too bad on the very few occasions we got the ball into our 50 and had we got even close to matching clearances/stoppages that we should have then Dunn could have exploited this area more. He just didn't really get the delivery required to exploit him.

Extra credit to Matty Bate on his game due to this fact. Super effort Bater.

You state this as if it's a given. How do you know his role was supposed to be defensive?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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. 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
