To play like Bellchambers, he needs to fall over at the slightest bit of contact.

I'm there tomorrow and fired up! The loss of Rich and Hanley will help us, so if we come with a switched on mindset, I reckon it might be close.

I rewatched the Port Adelaide game today and thought that Jordie McKenzie was really good. Can anyone remember why he didn't play the next week? Was he injured or dropped?

Either way, I'm excited to see him back against the Lions.

Injured.

But, seriously, you watched the port Adelaide game again?

The game from round 1, this year........wow, I deleted that as soon as I left the ground.

I watched 'em all this week. I wanted to see our stoppage setups and things like that.

Food for thought:

If we win tomorrow, we will be no lower on the ladder than 13th. We'll move past Brisbane, the Bulldogs, St Kilda, and West Coast, who just lost to Port despite leading by 40 points at the 20 minute mark of the third quarter. If Hawthorn do the predictable and beat North, we'll then be in 12th.

Will we win? Probably/likely/almost certainly not, but at least there's some ladder-climbing motivation for the players.

I can see Davey becoming our super sub and playing this role on close to a permanent basis.

Interesting idea. Not the worst thing I've heard, either. He does seem to be suited to the role. I wonder how being a sub every week goes for fitness, though. And confidence/morale. I don't think we'd do it literally every week, but maybe he'll find himself in the vest semi-regularly.

Any chance we can get Jack Watts to do a Harry Taylor....play down back and rotate up forward? 5 goals to Harry tonight. Lost track of how many times hes done that.

I want to see us kick a goal from the first bounce. Tap down Sylvias throat 2 bounces and a goal from 55, have we ever done that?

Also would love to see Evans rotate into to middle for bursts playing on Moloney and hurt him the other way, we all know he dosnt run defensivly.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
