Still haven't seen Moloney - only 4 disposals in almost half a game yet some people are disgusted we would think of trading him? Hang on there he was almost smothered a Saints kick.

He copped a knock on the shin early, hasn't done much since.

Wasn't that in 2005?

Strauss isn't the sharpest tool in the shed.

To be fair he was moving back when the umpire paid the 50. If he wasn't 5 metres away how was the Kosi mark 15 metres? Better qtr, Howe needs to kick better. and as funny as it's sounds mark better. If it's not a high leaping mark his hands aren't that great. Grimes and Jones fantastic, to win our midfielders need to kick more goals. Play Sylvia at FF.

This is the worst game in recent memory, in terms of quality of both teams and their inability to move the ball.

It's actually hard to watch.

Credit to our boys for fighting hard, but gees we are shite.

No forwardline isn't helping either.

2nd quarter similar to the first except with a bit more reward for effort with two goals. Still really have to work on delivering the ball better into the 50. Our work rate is good and pressure is yeilding results.

That goal to the saints was because of us, there's no way he should've been able to mark it, Strauss needed to listen to the umpire (that said I have seen players A LOT closer before). Shame, we really could've had them goalless that quarter.

Howe stepped up his game that quarter, as did Jetta and Tappy. More positives than negatives for me ATM.

Did you miss last week? Jetta does have a crack and is having a good game, hopefully can snag a few. Sylvia 6 tackles and 9 handballs, listening to Neeld pre game think he would be happy with that.

It seems we say that every week.

No forward line is completely shafting us, Jetta, Howe and Blease should be the icing on the cake, not the main men. Really hurting with a quarter of the list out.

More than a quarter of the list is out. Try 16 players. For fun, I just wrote a team of outs and it looked pretty good.

    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.
