6- Howe ( Fantastic all day . Skills were sublime )

5 - M.Jones ( Far from outstanding , but our only successful runner )

4 - Frawley ( overwhelmed , but focused all day )

3 - Trengove ( actually looked fit and played accordingly , though was still swamped )

2 - McKenzie ( hard at it all game , but rarely hurt opposition )

1 - Jamar ( merely for weight of knockouts , but unfortunately little support from onballers )

Absolutely not.

He was rucking against Zac Clarke. Clarke is awful. He's only playing because Sandilands and Griffin are injured.

To take 0 marks all day is pathetic for a ruckman. 1 kick is just as bad.

Jamar was rank.

Who cares.

Get some real people running the club before even considering who the "best" players are.

Such negativity. This is a positive thread to reward those who actually try.

x 2. Only blokes who went hard at the footy once today. When the footy miraculously made it into our forward 50, davey was the only bloke who made any attempt to keep it there. Watch him nev and tapscott, learn something ffs

  1. Mckenzie (put effort in which is something a majority need to look at, his & Nicho's shortfalls would not stand out as much if some other players put the effort in neither of them are any worse than Matt DeBoer, Adam Selwood, Brad Dalziell or others on AFL lists who are surrounded by quality Mids)

M.Jones

Terlich he will be a big out if broken ribs confirmed

Trengove

N.Jones he is all heart and god he would be a great asset in a good side

Howe a must keep for this club

Worst On Ground goes to Jamar. 20 something nothing hit outs against a d-grade ruckman and a rookie listed ruckman. 1 kick. 0 handballs. 0 marks. 6 tackles because he was too slow to ever get a hold of the ball.
Awful performance. He has quickly fallen away as a player, and the fact he still has 2.5 years of his contract remaining is a huge concern for us. At his best he would always compete hard, provide a marking option around the ground and feed it off to runners passing by after clunking the marks from kick outs, long kicks to the wing etc. This made up for the fact he never had a high disposal count.
Now he is a liability. if he wins a tap it goes straight to his feet and is useless. As soon as the centre bounce is done he falls over and we effectively play a man down from then on around the ground as he struggles to jog along to where ever he thinks the next stoppage will be. He wouldn't and shouldn't get a game at any AFL club based on form.

6. Howe - really good.

5. Trengove - possibly his best for a couple of years.

4. Terlich - continues to impress.

3. N Jones - if only he had some decent midfield support!

2. McKenzie - a bit closer to the Jordie we know and admire.

1. M. Jones - ok

    TRAINING: Monday 17th February 2025

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    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

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
