Geez I enjoy watching Gus and Viney tackle

Good opening half in a pretty ugly affair.

Plenty to like from the boys and, apart from clearances, we well and truly have them covered. We need to come out in the third term and put them away.

I have a feeling we'll win

This inevitably means we'll lose by 10 goals and Melbourne supporters will be on suicide watch again this week

especially since the Suns lost again. lets see how the Lions go today?

Harmes looks like a solid player

Id sub in ANB for Lumumba or JKH sooner rather than later

Keep it going Dees

Surprised JKH didnt get subbed half way through the quarter

Sub him late in the third or at the start of the 4th. We are well in front, no need to sub him too early on for a player to go down injured.

They're walking away from the clearances... Hope we can keep that under control in the second half

Don't write off Brisbane just yet. They're doing well at stoppages and out tackling us. If they can straighten up and be more coherent going forward, they'll turn it on.

Must keep applying same level of pressure behind the ball like we have been. Too much space in the middle and they'll easily outrun us and get on a roll.

Hope Aish is getting a good look at the workload needed when he joins the dees next year

He is starting to do a few good things, and a too early sub is pretty risky.

Just saw the Harmes McDonald goal

Great stuff

Harmes grabbing his chance. Very smart play

Never took his eyes off the ball

Where is the Prince? Three possessions!

They were always going to do that with their midfield. As has been their problem all year they literally have nothing going forward, so as long as we pressure them they will find it very hard to score.

Plus we have a few mids who can lift as well in that area in the second half.

JKH responded well to that dropped mark which almost cost us a goal. He's still a depth player, nothing more. Only in the side because Kent isn't. Still, I'm glad he took the game on after an embarrassing brain fart. He [censored] himself at that contest.

Nah. Got to give him a chance. Give him a spray at half time and see how he responds.

No point wasting the sub that early

dont agree on this one, its gonna blow out big time

I know he hasn't done a lot today, but I rate him. I wonder what he'd cost (pick wise)?

Posted

Must play a solid 4 quarters, means nothing if we let them back in 2nd half

Posted

Low quality game which we are dominating

Better use of the footy going forward would be nice.

Yeah, some of those fwd 50 entries early in the first had me tearing my hair out.

Posted

Where is the Prince? Three possessions!

Still three more than Mitch got this weekend.

    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.
