Amother good analysis. Matt Jones a few clangers though but its tough for selectors now to make changes.

You may as write Tyson's now for every game:

Tyson - Holding the ball

Without wanting to hijack Joeboy's thread, you seemingly have a vendetta against the GWS boys in our team Clint.

Yes, they have their moments and yes, there is plenty for them to work on.  But outside of that they bring all of the traits we want in footballers who pull on our jumper and you need to get behind them.  Tyson, Bugg and Frost were all positive contributors to our win today and I think it's disappointing that you're in every thread taking shots at them.  Poor form mate, and as I've said earlier, you're better than that.

There were a few horible and hospital handballs but great intensity from the captain and incredible number of touches. I did think Matt Jones was good today and last week.

Tyson - What coach's want...

Seriously 'Clint', the times he gets caught with the ball is when there are no options. He could let it spill but they have been instructed to hold the ball in rather than blindly dish it off.

Better to give away a free and stop play than let the oppo run on with it.

Tyson's work inside was really good today.

He made a few blues but his positives way outweighed his negatives. I do like that he is not starting to mark well overhead as well.

I do find it interesting that his detractors for today's game, but our captain , who also played a good game today, handballed to opposition more than any of other mids and that has not rated a mention.

How often he's at the bottom of a pack stoppage!? As long as he's not getting pinged I don't see a problem, for the time being. 

How that will work under Goodwin, and what his vision is for Tyson, who knows...but it doesn't look like he's going anywhere whilst Roosy's in the box. 

His blocking and tagging work on Pendlebury around the stoppages was brilliant IMO

Joeboy, I'm not quite sure what you mean by "Kennedy - Tough little bigger"

Typo? Or is it some clever wordplay which is too clever for me, either because it's the entry after Kent's "Tough little bugger", an ironic reference to his size or something to do with his playing against his old side? 

Joeboy - got me stumped.

It's the Kiwi pronunciation, no might be the South African version now I think about it.

    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

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
