Really really impressed with Stretch. Has been good the last month but really took it to another level today. Loved him on the wing, and is a lot stronger than his frame suggests.

Good kick, good speed, nice hands. A big fan. Definitely didn't think we'll see much of him this year, and have been pleasantly surprise. A nice F/S pick up!

6 - Jones ( defied suggestions of injury to return to inspiring best )

5 - Viney ( tough, uncompromising and took right options today )

4 - Salem ( smooth as silk and classy disposal )

3 - Gawn ( dominated the centre bounces as he should )

2 - Hogan ( gave the team confidence with his ruthless attack on the ball )

1 - Harmes ( took some great marks and showed class)

Apologies to T.McDonald and to Brayshaw for a great second half

6 - Viney - I say this because he was the catalyst at the start of the game

5 - Vince - Just class

4 - Jones - Just grunt

3 - Hogan - Should have had 6

2 - Harmes - Really loved his game.

1 - Salem - we missed him.

and hon mention to Dunn who gave the ump a good love tap on the behind.

Can't believe so few votes for Hogan. More than anyone else, he was the difference. Just having him there as a target changes how the mids play, and how the ball comes into the forward line.

You should have ranked him above the three mids!

I didn't attend the game and only watched the replay last night, so I will not cast votes. However, I am surprised that Howe hasn't scored a vote as yet. Thought he played a good game but, admittedly, there are a few you could raffle for the last one or two in a given selection of six.

I gather you don't think Hogan has a future.

At least 10 players worthy of votes compared to 3-4 of previous three weeks.

6 Gawn - yes I know he was rucking against a no-name kid, but how good was his service. We were spanked in middle last time in Rd 2. Not this time.

5 Viney - every week i enjoy reading the pressure acts column and he's way above everyone else. In the third term when we won it, he was everywhere.

4 T.Mac - Almost back to his early season best. Beat Cameron and still provided run from defence.

3 Jones - How good was his kicking. I can't believe the tossers that question this area. He's the best pass in the side.

2 Salem - As I've said for some time now - we need his left foot down back. The most crucial player in team aside from Gawn and Hogan. At least now we have another option in White.

1 Hogan - He was on from the start and seemed to love all the Inside 50m entries that happen when you are playing a glorified exhibition game.

Why no Vince and Cross.

Vince - He was very good but his direct opponent Ward was clearly the best GWS player.

Cross - Even he can't remember anything he did!

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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. 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
