Pretty awful defensive moment from the Hawks earlier (yes I know, glass houses...), allowing an easy goal-square goal to Adelaide that the Hawks defenders had ample opportunity to kill over the line, but didn't.

Had a good chuckle when I realised it was Frawley lying on his a$$ on the ground, responsible for the mess.

Otherwise, great game tonight, a real shootout!

Gives the Hawks fans a taste of what it's like to be a dees supporter week in week out.

Playing in Adelaide would be very similar to playing in Geelong in that the away team has to put up with the feral crowd.

Frawley blatantly holding the man there, would've been hilarious if the umpires weren't in the Hawks pocket and actually paid the free kick to Adelaide right in front of goal.

I tipped them, don't understand why the Tigers are such favourites. In form, sure, but still ahead of themselves.

They beat Fremantle, granted, but look who came close to also beating the Dockers last week...

Freo have been flat after jumping the competition early. Credit where it's due they went over with a plan and executed it.....I just can't bring myself to rate them. I've taken that game aswell as North/Giants each way in my multis. Even with the Giants injuries this is the kind of game North will drop. The two most unpredictable teams in recents times. (Port coming in 3rd)

I definitely rate Freo, but my dad was spot on the money when he told me (back in round 4) they'd peaked far too early. They'll go through a real mid-season slog now, I reckon.

Must say I like this only 6 games a week thing.

If only we could make them all on a Saturday afternoon at 2:10pm and have them played throughout Melbourne in the surrounding suburbs, Collingwood, South Melbourne, Fitzroy etc. That's be a nice competition!

Sorry, I meant "I can't rate Richmond" even after that win. Hence I've taken the Tigers/eagles game each way.

Freo are very good, my only concern would be long jeopardy, hawthorn and Sydney seem to be blooding youngsters and.....we all know what happened at the saints. But this year they are the real deal and looking good for a top two finish.

Gee whiz, I'm sick to death of this team winning.

They should start show replays of their matches from 1925 - 1960, bring them down a few pegs!

Edit: Change 70 to 60.

As long as we don't start seeing replays of the failed merger.

Nope, just our clashes from 54 - 60!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
