Newton - that settles it

Morton - not afl standard

Bennell - will be dropped

Warnock - not afl standard

Morton is AFL standard, has had a very interrupted year, only 2nd year. Will be much better next year.

Pretty harsh, but probably fair assessments.

- Newton was brought it to make 100% sure he's not up to it. Will certainly be delisted now, what a spud.

- Bennel is very clean and has great pace, he'll be a player but does need to be dropped just down on form.

- Warnock first week back so probably gets a bit of latitude, but really terrible game, doesn't look a part of the future and i prefer JoelMac

- Morton has soo soo soo much talent. Some of his marking today was outstanding, its just his kicks kept on missing the targets. If he hit his targets by foot he'd be one of the best youngsters in the comp. Still has huge potential

Im getting a bit tired of hearing.. this player of that has talent to burn...but cant bloody kick for sh!t. Its football.. it has GOT to be a prerequisite that you can kick to a decent AFL standard. even Scully needs to hone this craft..its not good.

Surprised Watts getting negativity. Some of his non-stat type efforts were commendable. Keep it up.

Cale....footsteps ??

Bruce.. 1/3 briliant 1/3 solid 1/3 sus disposals ( the other 2/3 were much better btw )

Jurrah.....no words required

Green... not best day

Rivers... a fair effort then he does some silly stuff too. Needs to get rid of that ( pls)

Bennell... did he catch the flight ?

Junior...what a trooper

Tregove...long year hey

Bail - couldnt get into it

Bartram - hmmm

Dunn - under-done

Frawley - hard day at offoce.. probably wrong office

Garland - rusty...very

Jamar - must have felt a tad lonely

Jones - so much effort for so little

Beamer - tried ...but as effective as Jones

Scully - has to work on efective disposals... a lot of good work comes undone.

Warnock - pantsed

Wonaeamirri - 50/50

McKenzie - doesnt give in this kid

Newton - spud dud & looking for a job

Yeah, he is AFL standard as a whole. But today he looked out of his depth and it is his third season. He has played some great games in the past, but today was a shocker.

He looks good when he takes a mark, but you hold your breath when he kicks it. That stuff up when he had the ball 30 metres out directly in front summed up his day. Not confident to nail the set shot, he passed it off, only to kick it higher than he did long, making it an easy chop out by the Port defender, leading to a 2 goal turn around and the start of Ports run on.

They were harsh assessments, but they are based on today only, because thats what this analysis is for. I am a huge fan of Bennell but he has been quiet the last few weeks, and today was very poor. Give Maric a crack at the G.

Gee we missed Davey & Sylvia.

It cracks me up how people make certain comments on Trenners, Sculls and Watts.

Avg. per game 2010

Scully 21.2

Trengove 19.2

Scully and Bruce were outstanding.

Simply too many passengers out there today. Don't get me started on Morton in front of goal...

Batram can't kick. He is a complete liability in the backline as a replacement for Grimes. Should be used as a tagger and nothing else.

Wonna week in week out can't win a contest to save his life. Needs to seriously address his body on body work in the off-season, bc chasing just isn't enough.

    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

    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.
