Song, I always read your Jack Viney quote when you post. But if you replace Viney with Watts, it's entire meaning changes, doesn't it. Ok, I'm bored.

Just reporting what I'm seeing

No, you're interpreting what you're seeing.

BTW, seeing spelling has come to be part of the thread, its crapping. Two p's.

You think it's a fair observation?

To single out one particular player for harsh criticism in a side that got belted?

And all that without having even seen the match!

Madness.

Heard Garlands name in the call for the last couple of minutes of the game. So he must be ok.
Evidently MFC listed players pretty/very/extremely ordinary today. Callers said no forwards. So I expect a tall to be drafted this year - no doubt. Amazing pre season most were saying we were overloaded with tall forwards - what a difference a month makes.

WJ how has Gawn played and did Spencer play today?

Max did reasonably well in the ruck and around the ground. He dominated the hitouts although his onballers didn't really take advantage (except with the exception of McKenzie). He had 49 hit outs and 18 possessions according to the Scorpions Facebook page.

I can back up WJ on that one, Max was probably the best listed player in my eyes.

Started slowly but really worked into the game and was excellent in the ruck, which wasn't really capitalized on by the midfield.

Also thought Riley and Harmes tried hard without much return.

Overall no one grabbed the opportunity presenting itself which in itself was disappointing.

Most of Clisby and Riley's best work was done in the second half. They did very little in the first half.

Players such as Blease, Strauss and Tapscott have to do a lot of work to earn a game at any level above where they are at present.

Harmes was in and out of the game and was off with a finger injury a couple of times.

    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
