Just realized its at a neutral venue too, in Canberra.

Bring it on.

I haven't lived in Canberra for a while now but I don't know anybody there who thinks of GWS as 'their' team (quite the reverse). So yeah, neutral venue.

Awkward.

At the moment Clark must be feeling nothing much has changed since playing for us.

Two highlights for me: 1. The crowd. Four nights after a 93,000 crowd for the Cricket World Cup, another 83,000 show up for the footy! Incredible! 2. Even more incredible was the work the ground

Why are the media not tearing strips off Scully?

$1 million a year for a player who is VFL standard.

Are GWS and Scully beyond criticism?

League expansion was a direct result of Fox/Seven wanting 9 matches a round. Of course they aren't going to be critical of their golden goose.

Caro isn't affiliated with either corporation and has been critical of them, fortunately.

Crows lead by 57 against North with 5 minutes left before half time. Huge reality check coming up.

Edit: 63 points now

Double Edit: 69 points.

The bad news is our hold on 2nd spot on the ladder is looking tenuous.

The good news is one of the whinging Scott twins head is about to explode

North's biggest problem has always been Brad Scott....he does not know how to take them to the next level.

And, I can't stand either Scott...

Scully - 16 possessions. Geez the Giants did us a favour by taking him. Cameron played well but Tommy Mac can go with him.

Adelaide are absolutely dominating North. It's scary to watch and they should be actually leading by more.

North could be on the bottom after this round. Tex is on fire.

North: a team full of duckers, divers and divas. Personified by their petulant pest of a coach.

Goldstein, Thomas, Boomer, Petrie comfortably amongst the most unlikable flogs in the AFL for their antics.

[Censored] culture for a [censored] club.

(And who says I have an irrational hatred of Norf?!)

Sorry, had to do the redacting but agree entirely with the sentiment

How awkward was Adelaide singing the song on the boundary line? Hope that doesn't kick on.

Waite didn't score a point! Great recruiting right there.

Gave away his customary 50, but showed great improvement by not getting injured or reported. No word on if he has any friends yet though.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
