Things I'll be watching closely -

- Tom McDonald's kicking

- Jack Watts' intensity

- Clayton Oliver (just in general since its my first look at him)

- Dom Tyson's form, remembering his 2014 standard

- The extent that St Kilda rely on their older guys

- Trying to spot even a single St Kilda player I'd want for supercoach. Weird, I can find heaps of Demons ^_^

When we win it will make it two games in a row at EddieHurd, and four in a row overall. Let's hope the press don't read too much into this and blow out our odds.

You're being too hard on yourself Satyriconhome. I don't think anybody is going to accuse you of being clever.

While a win is important, one only has to look back to NAB 3 last year when we lost to a bunch of fill ins and then responded with a round 1 win.

Having said the they're at full strength and we're missing 5 or 6 from our best 22, so a win would be a good confidence booster.

No ANB is a bit of a disappointment. If Stretch and a couple of others had a hit out yesterday, he may come in. Or Hulett?

T'was a better time when men knew their place - there were the butlers and the buttlees.

And an oversupply of spinster flappers up for a jolly good round of twining yarn in the dark.

Don't know ET, but whatever it is it will be about 70% Stk fans...sigh

Our fans won't come back to watch games until we start winning in the season proper.  Its mainly die hard fans who pay attention to off-season training and NAB games.

And, its a long weekend...our non-diehard fans will be holidaying somewhere!

Need to break this St kilda hoodoo.

Our last win in 2006 and first loss in 2007 ... I see them as the start of the black hole we have been sucked into for the past 10 years ...infuriating we haven't even beaten them in the roos era

Mentally as a club we need to break this hoodoo sooner rather than later...today would be a great start imo 

Then comes North Melbourne.....

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
