I was at the Gabba today hoping to watch us kick our record score . In the end we were only about 6 goals short . If we hadn't hit the post SIX times , and missed about 6 other absolute gimmes we'd have done it.I couldn't believe Greenie missing two left foot hooks from 20 m straight in front . Plus the Martin mark in the square .....no whistle! And the Wonna goal a millisecond after the quarter time siren. We should have got 30 goals without playing well!

And Jamar should've had 2 frees right in front of goal...

I can't wait to see what collingwood or Geelong or Hawthorn do to them.

I think GC will get worse before they get better. The floggings will drain any enthusiasm, they've collectively had one pre season so the kids will fatigue... A red hot team will give them the mother of all beltings if we can win by 90 playing below our best.

We were them!

Frack, it's good we have graduated to the 'playing ok, but fans aren't satisfied with 15 goal win' phase...

Do you think Gold Coast are better than VFL level?

It'd be nice if one of those beltings was by 191 points or more.

Do you think a side like Werribee (who beat Collingwood by 90 points on Saturday) could beat them ?

they are so bad

at times we we would make a big stuff-up, any decent side would have both stymied our attack and rebounded for a goal of their own, GC would just stuff up even worse and we'd still score. Moloney, Sylvia and Jones just walked through their attempts to tackle. They will cop some frightening beltings

Had $30 on the Dees to be the highest scoring team of the round at 7-1. Posters, the siren and Stef Martin let me down. Still can't believe Davey's didn't go through.

I think Benno posted that - bad luck. Were one of you guys wearing a red & blue tie ?

You know I replayed the Wona mark a few times and he marked that before the sound of the whistle from the umpire (but just after the siren started). But he played on anyway so.....

Have you recovered ?

edit: I was tempted to put a redback on the high-low dbl on Friday. Melb - GC was paying $33. Pleased I saved it.

Yeah, my mate was wearing a red and blue tie and nasty hat.

Think we were on the telly in the last. Not even nearly recovered. 4 nights out, birthday win by 90 points. Oh dear.

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Monday 13th January 2025

    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
