6. Clark, for crumbing goals, taking pack marks and generally making Leigh Matthews look like a dill.

5. Frawley, for keeping the in-form forward in the competition to 1 goal.

4. Morton, for taking another step forward in his development and proving his critics wrong.

3. Jones, for doing what he always does. Not much needs to be said about him, because he brings it each and every week.

2. Garland, for doing a fairly good job on Steve Johnson (or as every idiot in the media calls him, "Stevie Jay") and giving us a few good inside 50 deliveries in the second half

1. McDonald, for working well in defence and moving up into the wings to provide an option from time to time.

Steve Johnson had a career high 35 disposals and 3 goals. Not the best game Garland ever played. I know he didn't always play on him through the middle but it was just an average performance I thought.

Fair enough, but considering how Johnson ripped us apart last year, 3 goals is fine by me. Garland was used as an attacking option a lot too, and provided some good disposal and run, which I thought we really lacked.

6- Clark (obviously)

5- Jones (workhorse who never stops trying)

4- Frawley (Hawkins was well held)

3- Morton (getting better by the game)

2- McDonald (gaining confidence and doing some good things)

1- Howe (took a few good grabs and played a good second half after a pretty quiet first half)

6.Clark

5.Magner (thought he tried all day)

4 Jones (disposal unfortunately back to some of his old habits)

3. Howe (he's a beauty, just goes for everything..Might need some goal kicking practice. the miss in the third was crucial)

2.McDonald (I was a huge xritic 2 weeks ago, top effort to turn that around)

1.Morton,(getting better every week)

6. Clark

5. Morton (always went hard - which is an odd thing to say)

4. Bartram (thought he was tough yet again)

3. Jones (Just brilliant)

2. Frawley

1. McDonald

6. Clark - Excellent game. Workrate, marking and leadership exactly what we needed. But for a couple of poor decisions and missed set shots, it could have been an outstanding came.

5. Frawley - Didn't give Hawkins an inch all day. Generally held his own despite the frequency of the Geelong F50 entries.

4. Jones - Gave his usual 100%.

3. Morton - Getting better. His best contribution for at least 2 years imo.

2. McDonald - Very good game for a boy against men. A terrific KPP prospect when he gains experience and a bit more size.

1. Howe - In and out of the game, but did enough nice things to earn one vote from me ..... plus there wasn't a lot of competition from his team mates imo.

6 - Clark (Just imagine where we'd now be without him)

5 - Morton (Again, hard to watch me typing this but I thought he did a lot of very good things today)

4 - Frawley ( In spite of some probs with his disposals, did the job on Hawkins)

Don't really think anyone else stood out beyond just doing their job.

Steve Johnson smashed us?? 35 touches and 3 goals..... Terrible call!!!

Mitch Clark

James Frawley

Lord Howe

Jones

I learnt a lot today. You can either win a one on one or you cant so your team will only kick to you if you can.Therefore ,if you cannot ,you are a net deficit.

Because Garland is solely responsible for all the supply Johnson got. I really thought Garland's attacking game was fairly good.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.
