It's game day and it certainly feels different. For starters, it's a Saturday although the game is buried in that twilight zone time slot I refer to elsewhere in this week's match preview. Then ther

Nothing against Mark Neeld but the effect of his sacking is already evident in the confidence of my younger grandson in the under 8's basketball. He had a breakout game today and scored a basket. Of c

Are you actually watching the game or are you that clueless about footy?

Once again with the ad hominem. You really struggle to put an argument together, eh? Would a gif help?

Ohhhh I just worked it out. You said you're 7 hours away and you're living in 2009 with your Watts comments... You're from Adelaide! Now I'll be sure to talk a bit slower.

Ad hominem again. And wrong too. Perhaps a gif would help as words really don't seem to be your thing.

Toumpas is having his best game.

I've seen little things today from Jimmy that I haven't seen from our mids in a long time.

Has Toumpas set the game a light? Hell NO, but he has directed Jack Watts to lead a few times.

He knows where his forwards should be leading and he'll direct them.

We haven't had any ball users direct our players to lead and if you watch Toumpas, he'll use point to where they should go.

You lead there and ill hit you on the [censored].

Terlich is just butchering the ball.

Has had a fairly good year though. Young in terms of games played. One of our best disposers by foot normally.

Against the Hawks (arguably the best atm) he had 9 effective disposals by foot and 5 by hand with only 1 clanger by foot and 1 by hand.

The umpiring in this game is [censored] unbelievable. Pathetic reactionary umps.

And to the arsewipe sitting behind me, abusing our players and your own simultaneously has to be a first.

May you die a sad and lonely man having never watched your team achieve anything.

So you're saying that sacking the coach wasn't the answer?

No. The list is in a shocking state in so many different ways.

It's that's empty space in your head causing that. If you put your head underwater for a couple of hours you'll find that the world will be a better place,

It's the club. We are going to struggle for 18 months, I think. Players have been poisoned by a FD that was poisoned by an admin that wasn't given clear direction from the board.

    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

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. 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’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    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
