Great comeback second term keeping them goalless,can't believe we're still in this,a top 6 side would have 15 goals on the board.

Saints pressure definitely dropped off but our kicking is killing us again.

We've got this

Jeez would it hurt to throw Vandenberg in the middle to get him into the game? We drafted him as an inside ball winning machine and the Einsteins think its best to plonk him in the forward line.. unbelievable

Btw this game plan is a bag of horse [censored]

Clearly what we do defensively works.

It's just a shame what we do the other way doesn't.

Jordan Lewis was on the ABC yesterday. Said this EXACT thing. Bad sides have to get defense right, then figure out ways to score. When they get that far then they can think about being more attacking to make the other team defend.

We are now at step 2 in the process. It's not as bad as it seems today

We have gotten nothing from Brayshaw, Garlett, Hogan and Vandenberg

Lift boys come on

Are you even watching the game? Brayshaw has been one of our best.

Watts, Grimes, Jetta, Viney and Gawn all solid so far. Umpires not so much.

Rubbish. Brayshaw is always at the ball and knows how to tackle. More than most of the nuffers in this team.

I used to tape our games and keep our wins but this year I have deleted them all (including previous years) because I just don't see us ever getting better and these bictories seem hollow.

Again today we keep making poor decisions and inaccurate executions, everyone is guilty.

Watched the Doggies v Coll game and both these playing groups are miles ahead of us unfortunately.

I have said this so many times, but until we get players who can dispose of ball correctly, by hand and foot, we will be a bottom team.

We are losing this game because of atrocious disposal, including kicking for goal, poor tackling that still allows the ball to be disposed of and a lack of running to make position.

On a nice dry track. Hardly apples..............

8 touches between Garlett, Vanders and Hogan - just not good enough

Garlett is just the sort of guy though who can bob up in the second half and snag 2-3 goals from nothing. Fingers crossed today is one of those days.

Weak, pathetic, incompetent, lethargic, unacceptable, disgraceful., hopeless, weak willed, negligent, heartless, prosaic, half baked, useless, timid, unskilled, leaderless, rubbish, negligent, putrid, egregious, pusillanimous, gangrenous - and that's a list of the positives.

your 3 word half time analysis?

Thank God for our backline.

Fair dinkum I don't know how Dawes gets a game. I know he got a goal but the number of soft marks he drops and his pathetic disposal undoes any positives. We urgently need to draft a replacement.

Trouble is I think we have been at step 1 or 2 since 2012!

If you take your eyes off the stat sheet, Watts' decisonmaking and execution has been terrible, and he still tackles like a wet lettuce.

Jetta, Grimes, Dunn (mostly), Gawn, Brayshaw and Stretch get pass marks.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    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.
