Jones - quiet until injured - Just beaten by a champion. No disgrace there.

Trengove - just a game - Thought he did some very nice things. 1%er sort of stuff.

Wonaeamirri - needed more involvement - Needed more ball. His chasing was very, very good and caused some panic.

Newton - failed last chance - Did he play? A waste of a selection.

Scully's ability to run out games to the very end of the season in his first year spells trouble for our future opposition once he irons out the flaws in the his game and builds up a bit more bulk. The midfield was where this game was decided and its where we still need a lot of work, especially at the stoppages. (injuries to key players hurt us here - Davey, Moloney. McDonald at different times this year). I agree with Bailey that apart from a few additional players (e.g. marking forward target) we have the core of a potent attach and strong defence and have the elements to build an awesome midfield, but this will perhaps take a little bit longer for these guys to learn the ins and outs of the midfield and to work as a unit.

Watts - took it on

Yep, agree totally. He did some really nice things. Seemed to tire towards then end and gave up on tackles he should have pursued. But some nice marks and classy decisions.

His 40 metre left foot pass from the wing/half-forward was awesome.

Scott - Youth excitement envy?

Does this guy have to whinge at every media interview that his young players don't get talked up in the media? They really are in desperate need of some excitement thats for sure if they are to survive as a club. Great to know for once we at least have the off field component well and truly sorted and just need to ensure we keep kicking goals on the field, literally and figuratively... :)

Is the fact they play a relatively boring chocking zone that the players get lost in the confusion or that they are overlooked because they still rely on the same old heads to get them through?

Green - his customary stylishness

Jamar - a tired game

Pretty much with you 100% apart from these two. Green was good, but despite his return I think he could have been better today. Few dud kicks that you would not usually expect. Jamar, was tired, we've ridden him all year, but he smashed it in the hit outs so that seems a harsh assessment to me.

He is a [censored] and his club is a [censored]. "Stop talking about them! Look at me!" Should have gone to the Gold Coast with it's seven supporters.

Where are those White Knights Brayshaw?

I've never been one for putting the boot into a struggling club but when they keep putting the boot into mine they can just [censored] off and die.

Morton's game reminded me of a game against the Bulldogs at Telstra Dome a year or two ago when he had about 30 possessions and turned it over 29 times.

Watts - took it on

I think Watts lacks confidence to take the game on - to have shots for outside 50 to run with the ball when clear - the confidence will come.

Brad Scott is an A-grade [censored].

Instead of focusing on his club, he was all over making comparisons between our clubs.

Just focus on surviving in Victoria and STFU. We don't need you to worry about us and how we're developing.

What did he say? Was this in his press conference? I know the Norf supporters are annoyed at the media for loving our young players, but I didn't know Scott was whinging also.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
