If JKH had kicked those two goals, he's the NAB Rising Star nominee. Let's hope he can grab a few in the next half, they usually go to winning teams, and this is quite the upset!

What happened with Salem? Subbed on and then subbed off? How does that work?

Cannot recall a more quiet Adelaide crowd. Love it

If it wasn't for the umpires I wouldn't have realized

Concussion sub. Georgiou came back on. Not really needed now with Lynch subbed off though

I hate Dwayne Russell so much. Anyone would think we were playing Hawthorn the way he is bleating on about how amazing this is.

Just saw the headclash footage.

Hate to say it, but I reckon Viney might have a problem with that. Elected to bump, looks like his shoulder got a bit of Lynch's head. Not sure, but would not be surprised if the MRP gave him something.

If a player is suspected of being concussed, he can be subbed off for 20 minutes to undergo a concussion test. If he passes the test, then he gets to come back on and the sub puts the vest back on and waits for a real sub latter in the game.

Nah Viney will be fine.

Chip came back to the sidelines and was doing some running testing the foot/ankle.

They did not say how it looked. Hope it's ok, they started double teaming Dawes, Frawley takes that away from them a bit.

Shows just how even the afl really is

BTW. Some great defence and guts from Terlich. I'm starting to get on this guy's bandwagon.

I've been on it from the start. Just as long as you don't let him take the kick outs and limit his possessions to areas where turnovers aren't instant goals, he's definitely a best 22 player...for now.

Unfortunately at Sydney airport and missing the fun. Sounds fantastic. What has changed in a week apart from them all having a red hot go? I must say having seen them over the last two weeks would not have picked this. May be the sign of a young side on the way up. Or are they listening to Roos at last?

Given what I saw against Sydney, i'm surprised we are winning but not surprised with the style and effort. I can see the beginnings of a football team

Looks like Brian Lakes body is shot. Reckon the Hawks will wave the cheque book at Chip.

I think you're right. It'll be country loyalty vs big city bucks. I know what I'm backing.

Watts will be a star when we come good as a team. He has poise and delivers well.

The commentators sais that what Salem did was either flukey or he will be a very good player - I think he might be good!!

Thanks! Didn't know that.

    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 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
