"Bugg - was rarely noticed"...he was certainly noticed by a number of Tiges players and that's all that matters...he unsettled them and put them off their game. I loved the way he went about his game today!

Tmac - great intercept marks

And horrible kicks to follow.

Really love Jayden Hunt's attack, dash and creativity. I think we have a fantastic player on our hands with Hunt.

Shanked a couple but did some nice things as well.

Definitely did some nice things, but there was a patch of a couple of minutes where he kicked three straight to the opposition and one out of bounds. Just refrain from kicking - I have to close my eyes when he has the ball now.

Otherwise, he's fantastic.

I like Hunt but absolutely love Josh Wagner. I feel at peace when has the ball, he doesn't panic and makes good decisions.

Wagner is going to be a good player, whenever he has the ball I feel at ease.

Wagner has absolutely shocked me the last fortnight. So composed.

... especially considering his early games. He's easily best 22. Big tick to the recruiters.

Yeah I must apologise, he has been a revelation. Sheeit I was wrong abut this Kid, but happy to admit a mistake I see a Lot of Anthony Ingerson in him and he's a better Kick!

Loved Bugg's game. Good in the clinches.

Disappointed with Dunn's game. Continues to do more stupid things than beneficial things.

It is no coincidence that the team plays better with Lynden Dunn in it! Should never ever have been out of the side! A fixture methinks!

Bugg?? Best game yet.

He was in their face.. Pointed to the stands whilst running into goal after taking a speccy..

yeah didn't notice him at all..

maybe watch the game next time..

Bugg wasnt bad for mine. He certainly put a few richmond players off their game. Dunn a few errors but still worth his spot in the team. He has missed a few this year. Will get better. Still wouldnt mind him having a go up forward and moving Pederson back. While Pedo is only averging half a goal a game, his marking and effort has lifted.

Petracca may come in for Brayshaw next week.

What I like about Bugg is he's a throw back to Zantuck and when we had a couple of players who were [censored] but they were our [censored]

Ha. Bugg was massively noticed. Bigfooty right up in his Grill.

Love your Dunn respect. Demonlanders should take note.

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.

    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’

    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
