Jesus Christ! You'd think with how negative most of these are that we'd been belted by 100 points!

We actually LOST the game ourselves, they didn't win it. I know a loss sucks, but we weren't that bad by a long shot.

Like the team Joeboy you will put in a shocker now and again, this is one of them

I certainly have no qualms about being disagreed with , but I'd love you to forward your own 3 WORD analysis of the performances, just so I can understand where I went so 'shockingly' wrong

If JKH is bordering on exciting then Byrnes is about as exciting as watching your grandma play bingo

My thoughts are that whilst he may not be overly fast on his feet, he is incredibly quick in his head for one so young. Exciting.

I think JKHs's main attribute is balance, poise and clean hands and that more than compensates for any perceived lack of speed. In fact it may make him more durable - the real roadrunners seem to be dogged by pinged hamstrings.

Did anyone see his acting on Neighbours? If he plays footy half as good as he acts, we are in for a treat.

totally agree with this one, especially about Howey marking the ball, he should not punch unless absolutely necessary, he can outmark anybody.

Howe- 5 minute performance.

That is a joke. The whole night he took solid marks and spoils.

Not to mention is handball to Matt Jones in the last quarter almost set up a match winning goal.

That handball was absolutely sublime. 25 metres, and put it WAY out in front so that Jones could run onto it, at full speed, without breaking stride. That was a handball even Sam Mitchell would have been proud of. If Jones had kicked it and we'd won, we'd have been watching highlights of that on Youtube for decades.

He was so good that the English Football team wanted to get him in to play right wing, thinking the same as you!

(I heard from a mate's mate's mum, anyway)

JKH reminds me of Greg Williams. Slow but fast.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
