First match back, not a bad effort. Sounds like VandenBerg has put himself in round 1 contention.

I expected a touch better at the line.. +18.5 at $1.90.

Nevertheless I've dropped a $150 on us for good measure.

I am reasonably confident we get within 3 goals with Fyfe, Sandilands out and a Roos vs Lyon game of defensive tactics.

These coaches won't let the shackles off just because it is NAB cup, they are both men of structures, discipline and defense.

That is what you call, running a very fine line.

Would have won if the usual suspects like Jamar, Bail and Grimes ever learned how to kick better than a 3 year old girl.

Or a 3 year old boy.

Gotta enjoy demonland. After Q2 the razor blades were out and we were bound for the bottom again. Then it turned out Freo were just as bad in Q3.

I've stopped reading during the play. Can't stand the nauseating theatrics any more.

Good effort first up, imo we already look much better than last year, great to see the boys taking the game on and a couple of good targets up forward helps.

really impressed by Frost

Both Jamar and Garlett had kicks o put us in front and butchered them.

Frustrating.

Yep, Watts hasn't had a touch tonight...

Yeah... didn't even see him going in for the hard ball... frustrating ;)

Vanders, Newton and Frost should play Round 1. Grimes, Bail and M Jones should not.

Salem is coming along nicely and Kent is poised for a big year.

Pederson will need to lift for round 1 with Dawes out.

Howe, Viney, Vince and Watts to be made way for (if fit).

VDB was good as the sub, really hunted the footy and used his height well.

Oh my God, how the eff does Matt Jones get a game. Every disposal a clanger & all his tackles were sloppy & poor. Turnover merchant to boot.

5 frees against for Jones tonight. Not even close to best 22 IMO.

I really don't know. His only attribute is that he has great speed, but he cannot kick, tackle or dispose without a turnover.

Grimes should be named captain again. Captain of the Casey Scorpions.

I like the looked of Frost running from the backline, great get there.

Hertiuis Lalalambamba looks better in our colours than the filth's.

JKH was he even there?

Matt Jones is a absolute machine! A turn Over Machine, and will assist Capt'n Grimes at the Scorps.

I have not read any of this thread so this is my own thoughts immediately after game. No injuries is the best outcome. Good fightback and one bad 15 minute patch. Newton, Frost (when back) and Vanders showed enough to me that they are givens for round 1. Grimes, Garland and M Jones are very limited footballers and need to be pushed out of side by mid season if not earlier. Add some polish with Watts, Vince and Howe and teach Toumpas and Salem to find more ball and our movement will be alot better.

Good effort but we need to move on from M.Jones, Bail, McKenzie and should be able to do that now with Newton, Vandenberg and Viney and Vince. Still need to find a ruck that can take a mark and kick a goal - recruiting priority for next year methinks

Not a bad hit out.

Howe to replace Grimes, Viney & Vince to replace Bail and Matt Jones and we're a few percentage points better.

I think howe will add a lot when he comes back, alot of freo's long bombs in are exactly the reason Howe was put back, big intercept marks and big pack marks

    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

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
