Apart from Selwood and Dangerfield, their midfield is very overrated. 

Wouldn't mind Duncan, Motlop, Caddy and Scott Selwood in Red and Blue

How good is Dangerfield (despite the two missed set shots)!

Good thing we have the next two dangerfields in petracca and Oliver

What's with this 'Tissot' clock on the boundary fences, showing the time left in the game?

Have I missed something? Why should these two teams get a count down clock if nobody else does??

It's been in every game I've seen so far.

Really? I completely missed it!

Seems like a cheap advertising stunt that creates an uneven playing field.

Sounds like the AFL to me....

Every team that won in round 1 plays a team in round 2 that lost which means it's mathematically possible for us to win next week and remain 9th.

I hate Hawthorn and I cannot stand the thought of another inevitable procession towards a Hawthorn flag, so I'll generally barrack for whoever their opponent is each week.

It's tough when the opponent is Geelong (and will also be tough when the opponent is Sydney).

Hawthorn, Sydney and Geelong have won 9 of the last 11 flags (add West Coast, who have the 10th of the 11, and you have four of this year's premiership contenders).

Heaven help the AFL (and the supporters of 14 or so clubs) if Hawthorn, Sydney, Geelong and West Coast make up this year's top 4.

Yeah it came up in our fourth quarter, with around 5 minutes to go.

Classic AFL "match day experience" gimmick.

You say that in Jest i hope...They certainly stood up today

Games against clubs like these i want to see Nathan Jones stand tall....

Really interesting start to the season, some beltings but some bloody good games from some teams (Dogs, Swans, Eagles). Only 3 teams kicked less than 10 goals, Dons, Pies and Freo.

Round 1 I know, but will be interesting to see how the reduced interchange hits a team like the Hawks and their older list. Delayed started after finals and some out but Cats ran over the top of them handily in the end.

    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.

    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
