No it is facing reality We have lost 3 games this year against sides we should be beating.  We lost all 3 because the team did not work hard enough That includes senior players.  B

Perhaps that completes the set of four: 1. 'I'm calling it now, we'll destroy Essendon' 2. 'Don't care if it's Etihad. We'll [censored] StKilda' 3. 'We're too talented for Port'

That was up there with Rhys Mathieson for haming up a high tackle then by Thomas!

Much as I gate to say it, Norf were bloody unlucky with the 50 against Thomas.  The Swan dropped the mark quite clearly. Blind maggots.

Also I'm amazed Swans playing the top side yet so many empty seats.

I've been to a few swans games as a neutral supporter, a lot of people go as social outing as opposed to going to watch the game. Those there tonight are the real fans.

Fact is more then 30 years after South Melbourne moved North, the vast majority of NSW don't give two hoots about AFL

Get rid of the 4 Northern state teams and set up the Hobart Swans & Launceston Lions and lets have teams based where people care about the game.

Sounds of the game with Jamie MacMillan.

Maybe next time they can get someone who will get a kick.

In answer to my least favourite player question - Linday Thomas by a mile. He just ran back towards a player and grabbed his hand and held it around his neck. 

AFL needs to fix it. It's like diving in soccer. Makes me feel sick.

And not long before that some Kangaroo dived into a pack, connected his head or neck with an opponents hip.....high tackle.  It is crap and it is so dangerous to encourage this [censored]

North player must have ran 30-35 meters through the middle of the ground without bouncing it then.

Zac Jones' disposal by foot has been appalling tonight. Getting a bit of it though.

edit. But that check side goal looked OK.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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
