Dermot Brereton is a terrible commentator. He speaks so much shite.

He knows his stuff. He just feels the need to tell us all of it in the one game.

Cross is too slow. Has lots of courage, but every week gets hurt going the other way, unless he can kick 3 goals a game to make up for the goals he leaks. I love his endeavour but we need players that can run both ways. If Matt Jones doesn't play (and I believe he shouldn't who do you replace him with?)

what happened to Spencer ?

Are you asking in the general sense of "what's happened to him, why is he so bad?"

Or are you wondering why he's injured? Because if so he got pushed in a contest and was injured. No free was paid.

I'd replace him with a stick.

Seriously doubt he will be playing next year. Least of our problems anyway.

I reckon Kent will replace him next week DS

The 2nd one :) Thanks Jaded

We have a terribly inexperienced side out there today, playing the ladder leader at their home ground. Too many of our players don't have AFL skills. Our Captain playing his 200th game, has no impact and is off before half time. The umpires as usual are killing us.

Considering all that, I don't think it is so bad, SO FAR.

We aren't very good (you're welcome for that incredible insight).

BUT footy on the TV is ruined by both networks pandering to clubs with bigger supporter bases. We get absolutely annihilated in the commentary, often at times being spoken to in reference to what the opposition team is doing even when running into goal. Meanwhile I've had the misfortune of watching Essendon games on TV over the last few weeks and the way they are spoken about, even though they are struggling, makes me sick. Doggies copped it until this year, Saints get it a fair bit too.

It's just another nail in the coffin of smaller teams, but thats not what annoys me - what annoys me is it's a short sighted strategy, as it actually makes 80% of the games poor viewing, and will damage an audiences interest long term.

Training drill. It's been very very bad.

We can't get our hands on the footy and when we do we can't kick it. It's ugly.

Last game next week, I would play him. Harmes and Brayshaw. Young side, but might be worth a look

Why is Matt Jones even playing?

Whenever Roosy wants "angry" there's only one player to turn to!

Cross is finished . Completely cooked. He spoils his own player in the final line of defence after he was slow to keep up with his man at the opening bounce. Reputations should count for nothing

Who knows. He won't be on the list next year anyway.

Shall I send u the soap wise! That could be construed as super negative. I hope you're prepared for a post match spray!

    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.

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.

    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
