Tom McDonald built on a good Nab Challenge and was amazing today.

Col Garland built on a terrible Nab Challenge and was amazing today.

AFL match centre suggests Garland came off injured at the end. nothing to worry about?

The physios didnt even bother touching him. I'm sure he'll be fine.

There are so many highlights from today. But the main thing is WE WON ROUND 1. 10 years I've waited for this.

Pleasing thing was how hard we were, especially early. Wanted more and exposed a few Gold Coa$t softies.

Also took the game on 95 percent of the time.

And not even the best player I have ever seen can come back through us anymore.

If you're underdone, and if you're sore, you better not risk it against the Demons. They will put Viney or Brayshaw on you early and eff you up.

Probably our best win since beating Essendon on a Friday night way back in 2011.

Sure, we had some exciting victories under Roos last year, but they were close games and we won in part to opposition inaccuracy, choking etc.

Today we were the better side from the opening minute.

Tyson's goal in the second quarter is the best passage of play I've seen since Salem's winner against Essendon last year. In fact, in isolation it was better. What an absolute treat to watch.

One last thing, there were 27,000 there today (a good number in itself) - but the noise felt closer to 60,000 when Lumumba kicked that goal. The Melbourne faithful are as loud as anyone.

Not sure if it showed up as well live at the ground but Watts' tap from the goal line back to Jeffie G was bloody amazing clear thinking.

Definitely deliberate. It was brilliant.

One of my mates saw Mitch Clark there today.

After seeing Lumumba, and Hogan, it's a case of Mitch who?

Good on him for supporting his mates though.

ye good on him. No grudges here.

They had more composure and better disposal skill than I have seen for a long time. Garlett and lumumba add leg speed and class. First gamers Newton and Brayshaw showed composure and looked like they belong. Hogan is only going to get better. Having said that GC was poor defensively. But a great feeling at the end of the match.

    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.
