Tuned in to the second quarter. All Stars are up by 10 at the main break. Heard Jetta and JKH's name a couple of times. One was a "slick" handball from JKH, the other was an errant kick from Jetta. Sounds like both are playing back.

Shane Yarran also stating his case to be on an AFL list. You'd think would be worth a punt somewhere.

Very frustrating that this isn't being televised.

Listened for about 5 minutes. Was so West Coast focussed I couldn't handle it. Might try a bit more later. Hopefully our boys get involved.

Are you suggesting that we have to adore everything the AFL dishes up LL?

It is a practice match by two groups I have little interest in.

We don't have to be interested - I'm not much interested myself. The point is that it's of immense significance to indigenous footballers throughout the country, not just those in the AFL. These blokes are very proud to play in this game.

Josh McGuiness is about the least indigenous sounding name that I've ever heard.

Micky O'Laughlan says 'top of the morning' to you.

Apparently the all stars have just 2 players over 190cm... so they are at a major disadvantage when it comes to height. Haven't heard Nev mentioned a lot, but Lewis Jetta is getting quite a bit of it.

Is it still on now? Anyone know what station please?

I think we all have a man crush on Nev Jetta.. the guy is a beast!

He almost came from nowhere at the perfect time to dominate the leagues best small forwards. We didn't have a good small defender, now we have an elite one.

I love it when a player works really hard and turns their game around as Jetta has done.

Shows how committed he is and how much he wants it.

Other players should take note.

Goodluck for 2015 and beyond Jetta.

I hope you get the opportunity some time this year to tell the two guys playing tonight how you feel. I'm sure they'll appreciate your honesty.

No problems at all .

I'll explain that it is good news that the two boys were recognised but it is just a practice match.

Out of interest are you going to do the same honesty thing with Max King ?

"I've got a feeling he's about 7 months away from looking for a new career." ( what you write on the internet always comes back to haunt you)

What about the name Krakouer? For the record, they are also listed as Jewish footballers because the original Krakouer was Jewish, originally from Krakow in Poland, hence the name, who went to England, got arrested and sent as a convict to WA. True story.

A huge stretch. A Jewish pedigree is passed down through the mother not the father so unless the "got arrested and sent as a convict" is female then they are definitely not Jewish.

So you lost your card?

lets just say they can't kick you out but my observance is from a distance.

I always said that when my daughters grew up I wanted them to have boyfriends of the faith. I have been half fortunate - the oldest certainly has a boyfriend of the faith - a diehard MFC supporter but the youngest has gone against the faith by going out with a Carlton supporter.

It could be worse nutbean imagine your angst if he supported the Dons

    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.
