Was it that or the "tad too wide" kick from Pedo?

I've seen enough of Grimes, Garland and Matt Jones.

Kennedy and Bugg very underwhelming so far.

I've seen enough from Dunn as well.
Plays with self preservation foremost in his mind.

We look like we're playing our first competitive hit out for the season. Haven't been very impressed with the defending when they are in transition from defense (very loose). Tyson gets it a lot but is the new Brock McLean (running in treacle). Kennedy and Hunt look lost out there. Salem, Jetta, Gawn, Watts, Viney all look pretty solid. Have liked the few touches of Stretch as well. Vanders looks rusty but that tackle! Lets see how they run out the 2nd half.

Good point Rusty but he did get two hands to it and didn't look in Pedos direction.

Disappointed with key backs inability to body-up... Oscar needs to make body contact when trying to spoil. It was always going to be an easy shot for goal, what has he got to lose if he gets pinged for a free? Kennedy has been disappointing, as has Hunt, but I'll cut all of them some slack this early in proceedings. Frost has got his hands on it but disposal and decision making has been untidy. Jetta was good in first quarter but was outsmarted a few times in second. I know this is negative but these are my observations to date. In the second half I would like to see better decision making, less panic!

halftime;

after Jordie ver1.04beta testing went nowhere I think Jordie 2.0 is AFL certified.

We are at least 5% better having Kent out there.

Gawn monstering.

Lay off Tyson he probably has some mild concussion.

Crutches aren't a good sign. 

If it's a sprained ankle they'd have him on crutches.

Agree For Grimes and Matt Jones to get a game even in an extended bench is an indictment of our depth.

FWIW Throw Tom Mc Donald up forward, move Frost down back. I also agree with the opinion already expressed that Oscar Mc Donald hasn't and nevr will have it!

Just showing Brayshaw sitting with cruches in the rooms and getting no attention from trainers. Could be precautionary hopefully. Scans will determine what if any damage has occurred. 

For the love of God pls don't let it be anything serious. We need all our good midfielders on deck.

He started off as his timid usual self but has been solid since then.

Took a terrific, gutsy mark on the hb under a tonne of pressure.

Why the hate for Oscar McDonald? Firstly, The kid has played 2 AFL games and is now only in his second season. Secondly, key talls take a while to fully develop. Don't count him out just yet, I thought showed some good signs at the end of last year.

    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.
