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"....

Can someone post a link I can follow live updates on iPhone? Guessing no radio coverage?

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    TRAINING: Monday 13th January 2025

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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
