Let's not skirt around this. If treating it as a Rd 1 game and looking to win, with the side the Dogs are putting out, we should belt them.

Damn you.

With the players they have out already I just don't get why they would rest others. Surely a club like the Dogs would want to get some momentum going into the season...? They aren't in a position to gamble.

Yey, there is going to be a membership and merchandise stand at the Creswucj Rd end of the ground

Total waste of time & money - if anybody's serious about membership they can turn up tomorrow!!!

(Is there an emoticon for "tongue in cheek"??)

I think the Libba injury has caused major jitters. They simply can't afford another injury to a key player. They couldn't afford it BEFORE Libba went down. They will cop a pounding if it means some run in the legs of their youngsters and no serious injuries.

it's the NAB Challenge, it is Roos' choice to put out a near full strength team, not the other way around, same as Freo did last week as well

Yeah that's a fair point. I would like to see us play a close to full strength Dogs side, as we face the Bombers next week who aren't AFL standard either, but these are prep games after all. Another run for us, regardless of the opposition, can only be a good thing for us.

The commentry is already hilarious and the game hasn't even started.

They have no idea that it's being streamed online. And they're saying Hogan isn't out there, yet he's slotting goals.

... They just corrected it, managed to spot him.

It's not exactly stunning HD. Which pixel is Hogan?

    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. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. 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
