Sorry to diverge but at first glance I misread your question. I nearly fell off my chair.

That made me give out an involuntary chuckle like Dick Dastardly's dog Muttley.

Just got back to Brisvegas and walked in the door and jumped straight on Demonland. Not sure how much analysis from those who were at the game exists above this post but I thought I'd share my thought

I'll give a report when i get home, but just wanted to confirm if we didn't already know it - Hogan is a star!

When I saw the result, my heart sank. Not because I see this as signalling we're in for another bad year. Because I knew the ridiculous reaction it would spark on Demonland.

Its a PRACTICE match!

For BOTH teams.

And we've sent pretty close to our best available. Should be practising winning by now really...

Our third quarter fade out is even better than our second.

Reckon if we keep practicing like this, we might have the fadeout down pat by the time round 1 rolls around, and be able to maintain it for 4 quarters.

Melbourne just need to win games, practice match or not.... Is the side at full strength? Minus injuries of course.

No we dont have most of our backline or our forward line - that is not our best available. However given that from the limited information coming through it does not sound good.

What a joke really, practice or not. Better hope Dawes, Clark and Blease make us a 10 goal better team. No pressure or anything.

Or our midfield (Trengove, Blease, Viney?), but we need to win, this is not good.

picked up intensity in 3rd although scoreboard not showing, seemed to have more inside 50s but failed to convert, GC got lucky everytime...

wouldn't read into it too much..

highlight - JW carrying the ball from HB taking three bounces along the wing and bombing it long to Hogan at FF.. who just dropped the mark..

Obviously relying on a 17yr KPF aint gonna win us the game..

I am excited about the Dees, if can keep up the intensity should go close for the W

Hence why I said "best available". No doubt Clark, Trengove, Dawes, Viney, Blease, Frawley would all be VERY handy, but they're not available.

Are you saying it was a mark he should have taken but he dropped it, or that he just barely dropped it? Just wondering.

Except for our two best backs, two best forwards and then add Blease, Viney and Trengove for good measure.

Seems some of you are struggling to understand the term "best available"....

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
