Spot on about the contested possession aspect Ron.

And spot on re Jack Watts too. He's an asset.

New favourites Lumumba, Gartlett and vandenBerg.

And Newton. And Brayshaw. And Frost.

And the future king of the club - Jesse.

I am in a good mood.

We kicked goals too

Multiple options

Bernie V to come back

Cross good vanders newton hogan

Lumumba !!!

Vandenberg, JKH, Brayshaw and Watts - all have very high ceilings.

Newton, Garlett, Lumumba - all exceptional, played well above their 2014 form.

Tom McDonald was absolutely brilliant, Garland - likewise.
Toumpas, very bad.. Maybe not even up to VFL? It is mental, I'd give him a year off and send him to the ABA (amateur boxing). Fully paid by MFC.

Great win. Hogan is every we could ever ask for.

Yup, i'm a staunch Toumpas supporter, but next week it'll be:

IN: Vince

Out: Toumpas

But now, who out for Dawes?

Can't believe you were at the game. Jamar was awesome and killed Zac Smith.

Believe it

Jamar is strong but he was outmuscled at times

Vince for Toumpas is an easy one for me. Not sure who replaces him as the sub though? Brayshaw looked right at home in the starting 18.

We scored over 100 points without Dawes even playing. Hogan was still highly effective even as the number one key forward.

You have to wonder about what we'll do with Dawes next week... who goes out for him, if anyone?

Amazing Win, so so happy!

Already can't wait to watch the replay.

All the new boys stood up really well. Derm' suggesting it was Garlett's best game in years.

Brilliant debuts from Vandenberg, Hogan and of course Brayshaw, what a gun. Newton snagged a few and a great start from Lumumba.

Jack Viney was running all day and for the few little mistakes he might make he also stops the opposition players getting the ball constantly. Very excited by the result and feels like a very different team even to last year. First time we've scored 100 points since 2013. Go Dees

do we even bring Dawes back in?

Good question

How did he go vs collingwood?

Posted

Seems we're going the Hawthorn route of encouraging goal-scoring mids rather than the traditional forward line KPP's.

Not sure I like the idea of Roos changing multiple players from a winning team, just to fit Dawes back in. Kent/JKH/Garlett/Hogan/Watts was perfect, with goals peppered from Tyson/Newton/Jones/Lamumba.

Jamar monstered in the ruck?

Stupidest. Comment. Ever.

Hate to sound harsh but if anything it was the opposite. Hard to disagree re Toumpas though. I like him and hate to judge the sub too harshly, but was a very unimpressive cameo.

    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. 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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
