Even better eleven goalkickers today. So far, push on to 100 point win guys

I'd rather win by 20points so long as we actually turn up and compete against the Tiogs next week.

A 100 point win equals a game up on the Tiogs and maybe a spot in the eight after next week.

Good point and we need some percentage given ours has dropped after the Pies game.

Hopefully they take some of this form into next week and at least it's at the G.

Melbourne are the genuine Yo Yo team of the League.

On our past form we'll be thrashed by 60 points next week after such a big win this week.

But I hope we give the Tiogs a good run for their money and if we turn up we may beat em :)

What was that about Percentage

Umm....yeah I said maybe well get some of our percentage back!!!! Ha.... Go you dees!

Back to 102%

Do we know why Gysbert's was withdrawn?

CC said soreness before the game. Also said we'll rest some of our young kids between now and the end of the season.

Gysberts had a limited pre season, and some hard games since coming back into the side. I'm happy they chose to rest him, especially if the soreness was groin or back related. No need to push his body too hard given his previous injuries.

I am currently in the Kimberley for work, so obviously was not at the game today. However, I managed to watch the game live on TV at the Willare roadhouse, which is between Derby and Broome. Stood in bright, warm sunshine - sorry Demonlanders- with some good ole boys, some of which wore their Freo scarves over their blue singlets. A great bunch of blokes really.

I was pretty impressed with the Dees today and agree, as some have already said, it would be nice to see us string two good performances together. I hope we can next week against the Toigs. My highlights were Howe - this kid is going to be very good and Jack Watts. One of the rouseabouts standing next to me said, "farrk, this kid is good. He turned to me and asked me who JW was and I told him he was our number one draft pick, 3 years ago. He replied, I can see why. Of course we were all looking through the xxxx beer googles at this time - that is all you can get up here at the present time.

But the best line of the day, given that many of them are cattle farmers, or at least station hands, was when a bloke with no teeth said, that Freo was worse than the "filim" that showed those *@#)ers in Indonesia f^in with their cattle.

I have been a critic of DB and I don't resile from that, but I believe he would be an asset to any footy club, but just not as a senior coach. Looking forward to the Toigs game next week

How was the atmosphere at the G today? I note the crowd was only just over 19K.

Greetings from the red Kimberley to all Demonlanders.

Jack Watts BOG.

Being interviewed on TV now. Walks and talks like a future captain.

I wish desperate D'land posters would stop referring to everyone as future captains. Just let the kid play; look at how future captain Grimes is going.

Should be a ban-able offence.

As Chris Connolly says, it's not the captain that's important, but the quality of the entire leadership group.

Amen to that. The big one in my time was Brock, who was all but guaranteed as captain.

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
