did dawes hit someone in the head again. People are talking about it on twitter.

Geez Bernie is having a day out. 25 possies and 3 goals.

People or halfwits?

To half time Melbourne has turned the ball over 7 times and the Roos have scored 7 goals from it.

We need to tighten up big time in the second half.

Also think Mckenzie might be in a bit trouble with the elbow to Thomas(I think) face who went down like a cheap suit.

The only thing I can think for his defence is that he was trying to tackle another player and swung his arm around to effect the tackle.

Just saw the replay of the incident and he wasn't trying to tackle and will get a couple I would think.

IMO he should be let off just cause of who he hit.

The umpires my god can they actually see or are they blind.

My god they have been deplorable.

Cannot believe they are sponsored by OPSM. Hopefully it includes a free eye check.

Half-time and we're only 14 points down despite being smashed for the second week in a row. We need to grow a collective brain during the break and play the way Roosy wants us to. Clean up our disposal and we can beat this umpire-loving, free-kick staging bunch of girlie-boys.

This is everything wrong with Grimes' game, it's ok to critique it as a collective but not single someone out because they're a captain?

Grimes and Garland killing us with mistakes across half back. Garland was so reliable the last couple of years, been woeful since returning this year.

I'd move Garland forward to man up their spare man, could take a mark and kick a lucky goal.

Far too many passengers. Cross and Jones keeping us in it.

Same candidates butchering the ball and making crap decisions.

Yes Grimes is number one! Too slow for Harvey.

Grime needs to start playing like a captain.

Terrible decisions by a lot today, M Jones has been poor in his decisions, Grines is a terrible option on Harvey, Tmac is one of the worst kicks and I tremble every time he gets the ball.

So many players can lift.

I hate North.

Scott Thompson is an actor, who dived down and Dawesy clipped him.
Thompson was a major [censored] when i use to play against him in junior footy and he is a [censored] now still.
He actually broke my arm when i was younger by swing tackling me after i got rid of the ball, there's a fun fact for ya.

Apart from the usual cr@p kicks and turnovers, we are also playing extremely loose.

This reminds me a lot of last week. If we don't start to control the midfield we will get smacked.

God damn I loath North Melbourne. A bunch of sooks. Lindsay Thomas needs a good smack in the face!

People are pretty personal with Grimes. Critiquing the team is appropriate because the whole team is guilty of it. Critiquing Grimes is also appropriate, but I don't think it needs to be so harsh.

Good to know you don't hold a grudge 'Song'.

What a [censored].

Scott Thompson, Brent Harvey, Lindsy Thomas.

Easy to see why people dislike North.

Love it how Lindsy stayed down for about 30 seconds before getting up. You just know that he is a soft [censored].

North: the team of stagers, divers and divas. Good to see Kent give that dumbass ump a serve for that idiotic ducking free kick paid against him.

Of course, umps are so blind they fall for their Oscar worthy performances week in, week out. Fortunately you can't act your way into a premiership, which they'll never get close to.

Oh how I'd love to win today just to get them out of the top 8, yet the result would be Essendon moving to 8th place. What a miserable conundrum.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
