Riley finding form

2015 will be good.

Haha we say that every year BB :)

Lets hope we can finish 2014 with a bang (although part of me does want a good pick - i'd still rather see the boys get some reward for hard work)

Umpires missed a high hit on Tapscott after disposing of it and Stewart drops our captain with a high bump and its missed . Among others time to square up on the scoreboard and get stewart .

By my reckoning several players have a half of footy to show they might be part of the future

Watts ( Does not do anywhere near enough or want it bad enough)

Tapscott ( Limited)

Blease ( Pace but that's about it)

Mc Kenzie ( Sorry, but I still cannot believe how a bloke with the skills of a park footballer still gets a game at AFL Level)?

I've got no issue with Tapscott and Blease in the team for this game. Whilst by no means dominating at least they bring some polish compared to Matt Jones and Terlich (who show much more endeavour). I want to see some skill and polish, not just endeavour this week.

I am not a McKenzie (DE62.5%) fan but his job is to quell Boak and he is doing this well. Viney's (DE45.5%) and Tysons (DE57.1%) jobs are to win contested ball and create.

Is the right one being criticised here?

Agreed, I'm not a big fan but he's been solid today.

Nev Jetta has been our best player by a mile today. He and Lynden Dunn are our only defenders who can hold their heads up consistently this year.

If you watch the replay, just after the Jones hit, Gray throws the ball up to Stewart.

Blease and Watts behind the ball becoming involved go Roosy

The holding the ball rule is just atrocious.

It has become a rule whose only purpose is to keep the ball moving no matter what. You're better off blatantly throwing the ball than diving on it (at peril of limb) in order to halve a contest.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
