Sub out Strauss and put Davey in the forward pocket.

Sub out Byrnes. At least Strauss is doing ok defensively.

Can I ask to sub off anyone and make Ablett swap jumpers? My god he is a freak.

The only thing worth watching at this miserable game.

The beer's ice cold.

I've actually switched to light beers in the 2nd term - to avoid being under the table by the end of the game. In response to the game I was getting stuck into the heavies but I want to be here for the turnaround.

Healy said at the 5 minute mark of 1st quarter that the players are mentally beaten.

We were mentally beaten after the Port match, and it's going to be much like that all year I suspect. Fragile. We just don't have the kind of leaders and experienced players that Geelong do to pull us out of it.

It's a bit hard to tell from the TV, but wasn't Jordie tagging Harbrow in the first half? If so he actually seems to be doing his job, as Harbrow picked up 32 possies last week, only 6 to half time against us.

Their top 5 most experienced players are better (overall) than our top 5.

The most experienced in order of games played

1. Sylvia / Ablett

2. Jones N / Campbell Brown

3. Byrnes / Brennan

4. Frawley / Harbrow

5. Dunn / Murphy

Our bottom 6 wouldn't get a game elsewhere either IMO (in no particular order) ......

Spencer

Strauss

Nicholson

Bail

Sellar

McKenzie

We also have 6 players (versus their 2) who have less than 10 games under their belt....

Kent

Terlich

Viney

Jones M

Gawn

Evans

And we also have ..... Neeld and his amazing line/development coaches :ph34r:

I'm trying to think of something to write to express my gut wrenching disappointment, however I cannot find the words....

You might need to stop thinking and point your arse towards the keyboard....

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
