Jones - clean ball user

Vince - usually more creative

Hogan - consistently hard worker

Watts - creative and versatile

Petracca - brilliant in close

Viney - couldn't break free

Gawn - just a shadow

Oliver - creative ball user

Stretch - excellent 4 quarters

Kent - had little involvement

Newton - took his chances

Garland - better without pressure

Michie - little to enthuse

T. McDonald - kept opponent bereft

O. McDonald - far from convincing 

Hunt - one exciting run

Neal- Bullen - important one percenters

Bugg - 3 great quarters

Kennedy - needed more involvement

Garlett - regularly looked dangerous

Wagner - promising but flakey

Harmes - took his chances

Tough on Mitchie - thought he was pretty good.  Wasn't as enthused as you in relation to ANB and Newton.  Thought Watts was OK in the Ruck, but still question marks over his hardness at the contest.

Interesting selection dilemma with Tyson, Jetta and potentilly Dawes to come in.

Dawes!

I do not see anyone who would keep Jetta out in that backline today.

Tyson no problem if he is well will be playing in AS.

Dawes!

Happy to keep Watts rucking Old, or bring Pedo back in?

Hogan - Best on ground

Stretch - best young improver

Kent - seemed very uninterested

Garland - Lucky to play

Michie - A filler in

Gawn - Third time missing

O. McDonald - not best 22

Agree about Hogan, best on ground followed by Stretch and Watts

Hell no.  He kept his man to 5 touches and a single point  while racking up 18 disposals himself at 77.8%.  You can't knock that effort from a young defender.

Michie is doing the role asked of him and will keep his place.

Roos gives new players 2 games minimum to cement place and find consistency.

We have good depth with B+ players next step 1or 2 Agraders and foundation is there

Billy Stretch was definitely best on for mine.  Ran all day and neat by foot especially. So 3 words for Billy are best on ground or runs all day!

I have a feeling you weren't at the game today.  

Jonathan Freeman kicked a goal on him by the way, after missing 2 easy ones.

Fumbled 3-4 times

Overran the footy twice.

Missed 3 crucial tackles.

Outbodied too easily.

He would be smashed in other games with this ...

I was indeed at the game.  Oscar had one job - to negate Schache.  He did that as well as you could possibly expect.  Meanwhile his brother was outbodied and outmarked repeatedly, yet nobody seems to be mentioning him at all.  Indeed, the comment from joeboy is "T. McDonald - kept opponent bereft" making me wonder if he doesn't have the two of them mixed up.

So you're complaining that a kid in his fourth game fumbled a couple of times and was overpowered by older, stronger athletes?

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
