We have been managing Jesse through the year, after training on Friday he wasn't fully recovered from last week 1/2

There is no God :wacko:

All for looking after Jesse but if we raised the white flag before the game even starts its a bad message to players.

We're a chance now.

Boo. [censored]

Lame.

So we've rested Hogan and he'll someone sit out the next 2 or 3

FFS - I can't be bothered going back but are you the same posters who vehemently criticized the club for "mismanaging Hogan" last year when he played with a sore back?

I am absolutely certain that the club and their healthcare team know a hell of a lot more about what is his p ogled why he is being rested

Our trouble is that we don't take games. This one is up for grabs.

It's like the players sit down and tell themselves that we can't win - the opposition is better than us.

Hawthorn would be struggling to lead a VFL match today.

Put Toumpas in the middle, tell him to just 'have a go'.

I want to see if this kid is as ordinary as he looks.

Surely he has something to give, he went at pick 4, he looks out of his depth.

Time to sink or swim kid.

Ugh. This is just sad to watch

Our forwardline is non existent without Hogan and our backline is all at sea.

David Spud Hale doing what he always does against us. FMD.

This is going to get ugly.

Hawks are setting up players 40m off the play. Their players near the ball carrier harass our player forcing him to kick it quickly.

We kick in hurridly, they easily mop up.

We kick to a contest, they have numbers to force it to ground and mop up.

They then use these players to stream forward once they have it.

We dont have the half back runners to break the lines. We dont have the footskills to break down their zone.

We have Garlett, Dawes, Garlett all capable of kicking goals.

The forward line isn't the problem.

The movement forward continues to condemm us as it did last year. Zero confidence going forward.

Mitchell is killing us, should that mark to Hale have been paid?

The one where he kicked the goal? Yes. without a doubt. (in my opinion)

This is absolutely terrible. Out run, out muscled, out skilled.

We don't care about winning or kicking a winning score, only care about reducing the other teams score.

Take your chances and take the game on ffs!

i like crossy, he's just to slow

Yep, we play like a team that's already lost.

We haven't given a puff for three weeks in a row.

Seriously sickened me when I heard he was in the team.

That's Roos' ethos.

FFS Bail, never want to see him in the team again

Hey we doubled our score from last week's first half in the first 5 minutes. I'm impressed!

With our amazing "No pressure" forward line and sweet footskills we should only lose this by 80 or so

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
