Garlett passed the ball to Dawes instead of taking the shot. Would love to see MMs reaction at that

Frankly I wouldn't give a rat's about MM's reaction to anything, but I would love to hear KB's reaction to that!

Commentators need a jizzlobber after Bonce and Pelli just kicked a goal...

Reckon watts effort has been alright, he looks a lot bigger too.

Ordinary Q by the boys then, but a few of those set shots go through and it might've been a bit different. Looks to be a doozy of a breeze.

Disappointing drop in intensity that quarter. It's been a long time since an MFC team has really stuck the boot in when on top.

Has Watts had a touch?

Has had a couple of shots from long range into the wind...

He looks a lot bigger in the legs than I remember?

I think he will enjoy this season more than his previous years...

I'm excited!

Same old stupid mistakes started creeping back in

To be fair, we were raped by the umpires that quarter.

Just because we are well up, that doesn't mean the umps should put away the whistle.

it was a terrible display by them. We are going well.

Not wrong, I hear that the conditions are difficult but there are certain times where skills are only a secondary concern. Some poor decision making in the backline.

Only saw second half of that quarter though so not sure how the rest has gone!

What?

Heaps of positives so far, just need to finish off strong.

Dogs were always going to kick a few with that breeze. It's worth at least 4 goals. Watts x2 and Viney missed gettable shots on a normal day to that end.

another long year I'm tipping too many mistakes and stuff around with it, should be 100 up I will be very surprised if we drag ourselves from bottom 4

Grimes should never try to hug the boundary with a left foot kick. I reckon he has tried it about 100 times in his career and 99 have gone out on the full. Another one that quarter!

Disappointing quarter but against the wind, not so bad.

we are terrible against a 2s side

I reckon we should be looking for hogan a bit more, would love to see more fast link ups through the midfield followed by a big kick to Hogan with Garlett crumbling.

Too much slow movement for my liking out on the flanks.

Go up the middle and go long to Hogan.

Honestly if that's all you've taken from today's game I suggest you give up on footy.

Thought we saw plenty of that in he first half.

    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

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’

    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
