Geeze we have butchered some opportunities. Could easily be a 5 goal game going into the last change which I would've taken at the start.

I think Chris Dawes would make a better defender than forward. He halves every contest but cannot win one. His defensive pressure is really good as well.

He doesn't have the agility.

Posted

well we had more scoring shots than them that quarter

Really hope this doesnt blow out to a traditional 100 point loss. We will see if this team actually has improved and has any pride over the next 30 minutes.

Dom Tyson chugging along nicely again. Imagine if he was your third best mid and was given time and space. One of the major positives of 2014.

Jetta is the only one in our team that has anything that resembles composure.

Its been a problem that's robbed us of a few victories. Early season our kicking was keeping us in it but lately its a killer!

23 touches, 6 inside 50's, 5 clearances at 3 quarter time

May just about be favorite for the Bluey

Trying to read Paul Roos lips but Chris Dawes' head is in the way. Bloody hell. Can't he do anything right?

Nothing will change at this club until we rid ourselves of players from our shyte past.

2015 has to include some game changers at this club. Jackson talks about hope.....

My hope is we cut our list to ribbons of B graders who have had more chances than I care to remember.

Who do we replace them with?

He doesn't have the agility.

That all depends on who his opponent is. Horses for courses and all that.

I don't know what happened to Dawes, he was great earlier in the the year, marking strongly and giving us a real presence up forward.

Now he is almost a liability.

Posted

Jetta is the only one in our team that has anything that resembles composure.

Agree, he is a far better proposition down back compared to nervous Grimes.

Posted

Whoever is on Puopulo is doing a good job. He normally tears teams apart.

Posted

We find players that's what we do.

What do you suggest? Keep lining the pockets of players who are not up to this level

And now a goal.

Jack Watts looks uncoordinated.

    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’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    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
