Was just looking at some stats and what jumped out at me was Aidan Rileys numbers

Despite averaging just 50.9% game time he ranks -

6th in clearances (2.0 per game)

5th in centre clearances (0.8)

6th in tackles (3.8)

They don't call him pig dog for his ability to melt a girls heart.

No you are clearly clueless and didn't watch the game at all. Riley was one of our best. He had 8 clearences and 7 tackles and tried to take the game on and went in hard all game. While Mark Jamar w

I can see now why Adelaide fans were keen to keep him! Plenty of grunt, gets where the ball is and is creative. Lets see him develop into a very good ball winner next year! Well done today!

Would love to know Why? WHY this bloke who at least has a bloody dip and tries his guts out in the midfield was subbed today!

FWIW Tapscott was the one I thought should have gone!

Hnmmm would love to know the thought process behing this one?!

Was one of our best players then got subbed.

Lucky Roos is a proven coach

Ever heard of "player management"? No (or limited) preseason, recovering from serious injury, game with no influence on the club's chances (this year).

Quite possibly told that he would get limited game time before he even went out there.

I am glad that we have an experienced hand at the tiller, who sees the bigger picture.

Watched the replay last night. Just reconfirmed that this bloke lays a fierce tackle. He will strike fear into the hearts of opposition players. Viney, Jones and Tyson will enjoy having him around in contested ball situations. The opposition will always be hearing footsteps.

Pigdog doesn't need a preseason. He just needs a few weeks off leash on the outback....

He should be put in a cage during the week and only unleashed for 5 hours on game day.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 11th December 2024

    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
