the honeymoons over Paul Roos

How about earning some of your ridiculous pay packet?

Dumb cattle don't help his cause.

Dawes has had a mare.

Takes out of bounds free at the half forward line, dishes of a hand ball to player under pressure, everyone runs backwards and the ball ends up down at half back.

Takes a nice chest mark, misses a relatively simple shot at goal.

Takes a nice mark down back, kicks it straight to a Sydney player in their forward line.

then again might wait till jack comes on and kicks an inspiring ten goals and we win by a point

Toumpas has been alright. Our midfield has played like a third world midfield.

Bulltish looks like he is a rabbit caught in headlights..... Not that he is Robinson Crusoe!

JKH, Jeffy ??

Spencer!?? what a joke cannot even make the contest!!! Our Midfield?? sllllllllllooooooooooowwwwwww

Run and spread non existent.

We are as putrid as we were at Geelong all those years ago!

Sheeit our skill level and inability to hit targets is Telling!!

We are paying Millions for Assistant coaches that cannot teach basic Footy skills!

Im outa here!

Crap

Are we doing as bad as the scoreboard indicates?

Yes. They're getting it through the middle and forward with ridiculous ease, while our rebound of half back just gets slaughtered in the middle and at half forward. The scoreboard reflects the pummeling we are getting.

Far out this is frustrating.

Not running and kicking skills are at Little league level.

McDonald is a freak while Stretch, Jones, Brayshaw and Salem are at least doing some right.

Torture watching Toumpas on the field - take the poor kid off & end the cruelty.

Jamar has apparently offered to Skype in on the big screen to help Pedo & Spence.....

Roosy what were you thinking?

Simply embarrasing. Only 1 goal from a first gamer in 60 minutes of farkball

That's right, we're losing against last year's grand finalist because of our game plan.

Woeful first half. Terrible ball movement, unbelievable skill errors. We've had worse effort levels but where is the confidence and aggression we showed against Richmond? It's completely disappeared.

Spencer deserves more than one game...but...his first half was scarily bad. No improvement. Directly caused two of Tippett's goals in the only period play where we were relatively even. Every mark or free kick he waits for a runner to handball he telegraphs his need to handpass. Not impressed.

Salem, McDonald, Dunn, Brayshaw are soing well. That's about it. Embarrassed by some of the others.

Hard to get a stat when you are in the green vest chook.

Green vest, hardly an excuse to engage in Watts bashing.

Relax Demonland - we've got this, looking fwd to the second half.

Did you see Jamar in the twos today? He was deporable and was lucky to have touched it 4 times. He is finished.

Hey he looks pretty though! ;-)

Roos' credibility is on the line. I don't think he's been a very good coach the last two weeks. Our gameplan is shot and choices have been questionable.

As a club we can't afford to simply be testing the waters anymore. We need to play to win. The club doesn't have the flexibility or strength to survive performances like this over a long period.

We're at the brink as a club and no one seems to care.

Is Jackson's plan to revive the club in line with the brand of football Roos wants us to play? Because it's hideous.

I feel that Toumpas is a confidence player, not getting that free for high when it was so obvious in the 1st quarter has gotten to him. Not good enough but

well then he has got a pathetic rubbish attitude
Fcuk him off. Had enough of these slim hipped nancies representing my club...

You cant be serious! That's Sigils interpretation of Toumpas's attitude. Unless he's a mind reader it's just another throwaway comment.

Posted

Seriously. Where is this club at?

The players just keep letting the CLUB down

How long can this last?

Maybe Mark Neeld wasn't so bad...

Where is the consistent progress. The learning??

Posted

First game, but Stretch shows more footy smarts than most on our list. He runs and makes position and uses the angles well. Looks a natural footballer.

Not much good to say but needed to say something positive.

Posted

Sydney have some injuries who knows we could run over the top. hmmm yeah unlikely.

    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.

    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.
