Thanks for the updates! Keep em coming if possible. Really appreciated.

We're struggling to beat the competition's easybeats in our home state.

Yes, we have a much weakened defence but we should be doing better.

Dees 5.2.32 Lions 5.6.36

True, but as you said Grimes, Frawley, Batram all out make it a severely weaken defence, and I think they have a few back, I know Power is back and kicked a supergoal.

Garland also not there.

Not great so far 49-32 now.

Polkinghorne kicks a banana goal. From the pocket. BL now 49. Melb 32.

We aren't looking great at the moment. A lot of kicking to contests, No efficient run and carry. Tackles don't stick. The defense is completely depleted that's one thing to note. Watts looks lost out there again although there isn't any direct ball movement.

Good to see gys and tappy and petterd running around. Ricky starting to take some grabs.

Petterd takes fine mark just outside 50 metres

About to line up for goal.

He kicks but just touched on the line

Posted

Watts receives free kick and will now have a shot from just outside 50 - but on the boundary

Watts kicks an outstanding goal - well done son!

Much needed goal from Dees. Melbourne 39 BL 50.

Posted

Dees needed that spark ... now down by 11 pts

Ricky Petterd rises to take a fine mark ... quickly gets the ball moving to Rohan Bail, who marks inside 50

Bail kicks a point

Posted

Ricky Petterd is playing some fine footy. Plucks them well.

22 games from Rick would be great in 2011

Very much like the Essendon game. Disposal and decision making is aweful.

Is Jurrah playing? cos if he is I haven't heard his name mentioned?

Posted

Half-time: BL 7.8.50 to Melb 6.4.40 - Melb trail by 10 pts.

Sounds like a pretty poor first half, even with many of the best 22 missing :(

Posted

Half Time - we trail by 10 points.

Goals to Dunn, Jetta, Maric, Martin, Sylvia & Watts

Luke Tapscott v. promising for what is virtually his first hit out with the club. Classy disposer of the ball compared to some of his more seasoned teammates.

Hope we bring out some system after the break.

Posted

No jurrah garland trengove grimes Davey from what I can see.

Petterd lifted and took some fine marks that qtr.

The ease at which teams carry the ball out of our fwd line is very frustrating. Luckily lions turn it over as much as us.

Midfield just lacks something at the moment. Just got to hope that the likes of jones and Silvia are still holding back.

I like the size and movement of Howe, should play some footy this yr.

Posted

Tapscott is a great positive and his kicking sublime.

Could be the theme of the day, taking away some individual highlights. Tapscott and Petterd so far.

Posted

Sounds though Tappy is going well, how many touches has he had?

Tapscott has been very good in first official hit out for Melbourne. His ability to hit targets and his long kicking skills have been on show

Just got some basic stats ... Marks: BL 73 Melb 29, Disposals: BL 187 Melb 144, Rich (14), Adcock (13), McGrath (12), Rockliff (12). Melb: Bail (11), Tapscott (11), Moloney (10)

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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
