For the first time ever, I've had an absolute gutfull of Trengove. I'm a fan, but he is in struggle town.

And Dawes us having a shocker. Letting his opponent get to him.

I totally agree with you Jaded, he is a shadow of the young fellow we drafted. He done nothing but turn the ball over tonight.

Dunn would have to be the worst player to ever wear the jumper!!

As opposed to cowering in the corner like they usually do?

The problem with the bagging Toumpas isn't "bagging Toumpas". He has been poor, we all know it. The vitriol, hate and derision is uncalled for. Last week he was fantastic for us. A poor half and h

We don't have any accumulators.

That's the difference. Blokes who can rack up 30+ touches. Run hard, link up, kick the ball Ok, be involved.

2 of those and we'll have 40 extra disposals a week, which will go a long way to closing the gap in possession and making us more competitive.

Fitzy , poor game, 4 goals.

The sort of performances we need from players having a tough day.

This is the most disappointing performance since that [censored] of a coach left.

Are you for real?

Game over. Poor quality game and hopefully Garland's injury isn't too bad.

Anybody would think we were 100 points down going by the comments...... Trengove, watts and fitzy are our highest dreamteam point scorers and Viney has the most possession for us..... 14 points down.... I reckon thats about we're we are at....

It's the poorest midfield performance we have had under Craig. Defensively we have been crap, and against a weak opponent.

Plus poor returns from a lot of players. This game may be a financial win, but its costing us physically.

Fitz would have to be ahead of Dawes as a player, sure dawes has leadership, but we can only have so many tall forwards and if clark is alright to play next year, Dawes might find it pretty tough

He's not a play maker.

you're right but he is clean and uses it well compared to the rest of our mids. I think he is one who will benefit from better midfielders around him.

I don't disagree. I'm not really sure what Dawes gives us. A false target.

A lot of trash talk on here tonight! Playing footy in. 95% humidity doesn't assist in marking the ball overhead.

We have been ok tonight, a good comeback game from last week...

Reality.

    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.

    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
