Honestly, the score's about right. We'll kick away.

i'm sorry but Oscar Mcdonald just isn't ready for AFL footy yet. Give him time in the VFL. Why we don't have Dunn in, i'm not sure.

Either Roos is looking forward or he doesnt rate Dunn. I feel for Dunn hes.... better than Omac and garland.

we haven't looked like getting out of First gear and we are 30 odd points up. We can play much better, but [censored] me, our backline is a rabble. Big priority this off season.

Jeez OMac is a very ordinary player.. 

Dont rate him at all.

He might become decent but he's clearly not ready, baffling selection.

Petracca doesn't have the best footy instincts at the moment, he's physically capable but just needs to improve the finer points of the game.

I really wish our forwards would just be more selfish sometimes and pepper on goals. There's a time and a place for selfless footy, and it's not against this mob.

If you have a shot, back yourself!

We're over-sharing the bloody pill when it should be obvious to attack the goals. Should've kicked at least 4 more goals due to this in that qtr alone.

So all I know is the score, and the Demonland commentary. I gather we're terrible, no hope of making the finals ever again, and this will go down as the worst 10 goal victory of all time. Does that about sum it up?

Who is responsible for telling him to play on at all costs no matter what?

You missed "Roos is being out-coached again".

Your sarcasm can wear thin.

Uninspiring but scoreboard is about right. Wind makes kicking tough and you can tell. We're a 14-15 goal better side but in these conditions anywhere between 5-10 goals.

We seem to play according to our opposition levels.

Imagine if we played this rabble of a team with the game we brought against the dogs last week

or the Roo's at the start .We would be 10 goals in front by now.

As a team we are so poor with our decision making from a mark.

I've mentioned this many times but we drift off the line too easily and don't get far enough behind the mark. Often we are forced to kick under pressure from a free kick which is just incredible.

Well 2 years ago it was us playing like Brisbane.

A lot of players out today

Fix our defence and get a second ruck who can play up fwd and we will be definate finals players.

If you listen to the usual's then, yes, but you know better Nasher.

Believe it or not, it is possible to win easily and not play well...

We are clearly a class or two above Brisbane but some of the decision making has been nothing short of baffling. Skills are up a bit on last week though.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
