Sylvia has done nothing =(

Well, I guess he won't be playing round 1 then!

Maybe he has the sulks.

The unwashed booing the umpires.... Why do I choose to live here in Adelaide?? Unfortunately Melbourne don't pay my wage.... Although, maybe they should.... I am more passionate than some who are already on benefits from the MFC

Clearly we have to sack the coach, the conditioning staff, the recruiting manager (sorry, gone already), the captains, vice captains, any players picked anywhere in the top 30 of their draft, the club doctor, receptionist, cleaners et al.

We need a clean start.

Why the stress? It's only a practice match.

It is a practice match for BOTH sides.... One who some claim can really improve and finish near or possible scrape into the eight.... And one who most people around the country believe will finish near the bottom 2....

Which one is which??

Practice match or not.... I played in many a pre-season match during my amatuer career but I didn't leave my testicles in the locker room!

Footy is footy!.... People say we are trying to work on new structures..... That would wash with me if Jones was in the ruck, Jamar was at full back and Frawley was at full forward....

New structures is no excuse for [censored] poor efforts at the pill....

I dare anyone to tell me I am wrong.....

Better quater by Melbourne. Trengove not getting a sniff is just a little concerning, still waiting for him to really dominate a game.

Still waiting for him to get pubes....

The kid is young.... Domination is a ways off....

You are old enough to remember premierships.... I have been to 2 floggings on the greatest day of the year.... I want what you have had so I can come on here and tell people to calm down when we are getting flogged by the bottom team :P

At least no one will now bother whinging about the commencement dinner or the lack of an FOJ sponsor -_-

Wow.... Can't believe we are looking at getting a "Forever Out Jostled" sponsor

When will we take this sport seriously at Melbourne ;)

Our midfield are pretty average. Captain obvious statement but it is even worse than I thought.

It just never gets any better, does it ?

Goodvibes made an excellent post a week, or so, ago where he succinctly enunciated how 3 or 4 players missing can have a major effect on a team's performance. I know it's bizarre to suggest this, but Magner's injury has really been crucial to our recent fortunes. As most have stated for some time, we have a third world midfield and it's still where games are won and lost. Magner's grunt and ability to get the ball moving our way has been sorely missed.

Clearly the players are trying to adapt to a new game-plan and it's going to take time. I'm not overly perturbed as I have confidence in the end result. But it will test some supporter's resolve.

Best so far Jamar, Jones, Tynan, Bate and prob... Blease. I assume Tynan will loose his spot to Grimes but he has really put his hand up.

Sylvia has done nothing =(

IMO he is the only underdeveloped player picked in this team, but for a reason.

I think we are having a big change with all the 'skilled' playmakers out to HTFU. This Will unbalance us initially.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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
