Ive heard he enjoys a coffee implant in his colonic irrigation. Roosy holds the hose.

Jeezus, and they call BBO a pervert (rightly so, I might add). Where the frig did that come from Frosty?

deer in the headlights stuff from H today, every time he gets it my heart rate goes up, and not in a good way.

He's like the anti-Pendlebury. Probably much faster in a straight-line dash, but no peripheral awareness, composure. Always looked rushed and panicked even when he's got time. Burns the ball habitually.

Thought he has been quite good, at least he is attacking the [censored] footy.

He panics like a first gamer and runs himself into trouble every time.

Btw, who are booing him, us or them?

At least he is taking the game on, Toumpas is just panicking.

Lumumba handballing to a stationery Tuompas was the one time I would have a permitted a commentator to say "chaos ball"

them, it has a whistling sound when pie supporters 'Boo'.... they can't help it, it just comes out as a whistle

It was clear he was very nervous early on. He fumbled the ball a lot in the first quarter. As the game wore on, he seemed to back his pace which at times ended up placing him under more pressure, leading to a rushed handball.

Has been serviceable so far this season. Better than anything we've had on halfback for some time.

Fair to say Lumumba had a poor game. Got a fair bit of the ball by his standards which turned out to be a bad thing. Credit to him though, rarely did it hurt us. Don't think he got caught once

He needs to just stop. Get the ball and stop. Think. Execute.

He's a million miles an hour into a 7 man pack. Every time!

Posted

He got enough of it today but just seemed to try too hard to force himself into form, never actually looked to settle.

After quarter time he was ok but given he's in the leadership group he needs to read the game and the situation more.

Disagree. I think the rest of the team needs to learn to play on. H has the right idea but no one else runs so he sometimes gets caught.

I thought he did quite well. Could not understand why, when we needed run out of the back line, he spent most of the last quarter deep on the forward line

much to this actually. Harry came from a team that just went. He would have expected leads and options to present with them. We as a team still don't have this belief an often play to what the opposing allows. We need to be positive and proactive and play our game. Until we do,we're going nowhere fast.......just like Harry was.

No problem with playing on, big problem playing on when it's the wrong decision.

He got caught WAY too much yesterday, and this ended in hurried kicks usually directly to the opposition.

I like players who back themselves, but he reminds of Jones circa 2009... get ball, run into brick wall of players, turn over ball.

Every player has to know his limitations.

    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. 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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
