Players who didn't impress me in second half

Jones

Kent

Garland

Garlett

Howe

Are you serious? This isnt Twitter, there is no character limit. I would list everyone perhaps maybe McDonald and one or two others.

Jack Watts typifies Melbourne. he was great in the first half, up and about and looked so damaging, but the heat came on and started his usual loping, uncontested, ineffective game.

It's a team game, BUT, all those who desperately wanted Dawes in this week, hang your head and apologise now. Come on, fess up.

Grossly overated in this website.

Been calling and keep getting howled down for it. But Dawes is a spud who we paid way over for.

Get pedersen of Gawn in atleast they can MARK the ball.

Seeing this today makes me realise that even after 10 years we havn't improved. We keep selling it to ourselves that we have when we are the exact same [censored] as 10 years ago. We are no better now then we were back then.

It's games like this that give Gawn, McKenzie, Minchie, Riley Grimes & Spencer hope

Then we truly have no hope.

I think the saddest thing about losing today is looking ahead. Hawks, Adelaide, Sydney and Port all in the next 5 weeks. Be scared, people. Be scared.

Don't forget Freo...

It's not even about skill level, it's about effort. The Saints showed far more guts last week and came within a few goals. We just stopped trying at half time.

If we were half as good as we were 10 years ago (2005), we'd be a finals team.

I am ANGRY not sad or moping

ANGRY...that is what we must be

13 goals to 1 in the second half

ANGRY....Don't let the players off..

THIS IS EXACTLY WHY N. JONES IS NOT AN A GRADE CHAMPION

He Goes Missing when he must LEAD

Once we lose our grip on the possession based game, we have nothing. We just can't get the ball back and take control again.

Correct.

Add their fitness levels and pace, once they found their radar.....all over.

You can't say that Dawes exactly had good service from his midfielders, why does everyone always blame the forwards when we get beaten, struth the ball didn't enter inside 50 much in the last half and yet it's Dawes's fault. What about DYson, Lumumba Jonesd et al?

With the benefit of hindsight. The only player listed above you would even think of adding to the side today would have been Mitchie.

All the others are way too slow.

Yeh we should look to replace as many non AFL standard footballers (and we have plenty of em STILL) with more non AFL standard ones.

That should see a huge improvement on the field

Because he's an easy target by so many on this forum.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
