I read comments on here like "player x's disposal is improving after 6 years on the list". At Hawthorn if you can't kick the footy you don't even get bloody drafted. And don't use Frawley as an example.

Unfortunately we weren't a lot better but at least we laid some tackles on them.

Staggeringly poor by Carlton but the Hawks are as switched on as ever, lining up for goals. It's fun to watch

Spot on they kept up for close to half a Q then it was all over...

Would like to see someone belt Gibson in the guts as pay back for earlier...

That looked like a pretty hard punch to the guts. Gibson got fined earlier in the season for that. Hawks are getting a little sneaky with mitchells little dead legs and gibsons little tummy taps.

I'm loving it. It's hilarious. And it's great watching everyone giving it to Carlton and Maclure. The way they're patronising Carlton reminds me very much of the way everyone has patronised us for the past decade. They do it, because they hate us, and they do it to Carlton because they hate them too. So it's a compliment of sorts. Anyway, really enjoying this. I don't think there's any chance Barker will get the gig. Didn't think so before this game and it's now been confirmed. They've been pathetic. They are in for some more pain, Carlton and I'll be loving it. If they try to cut corners again (ala Judd), it will only wallpaper an ordinary list. They have to do the rebuild properly this time, which means probably 3 to 4 more years in the wilderness.

The AFL has to give them a priority pick.

I always said the AFL dug their own hole overlooking us for a PP.

Now there isn't much justification giving out priority picks.

Carlton shouldn't get one and neither should any other side.

Adam I am not watching but I don't find it funny at all. The Blues are being belted just like we were but the rebuild you are talking about most likely wont happen inside 10 years. How do you rebuild off the odd early draft pick to breach the gap the top sides now have? The trouble is they keep improving at the same rate you might because they are pulling in free agents and other out of contract guns looking for the easy ride to AFL glory that more than match your young gun recruits.

Anyway I notice that there are 99,000 people at the Gee tonight to watch a soccer match. AFL be very worried, if you are not already.

So when Hawks pick up Treloar or Danger, what will Gil do?

I'm predicting, "we still don't have quite enough data about player movements to make a decision."

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
