Hands down Richmond. Apart from just having a general dislike for them, I can't stand the way they celebrate whenever they have a win. When they beat Brisbane last round you would have thought it was

Geez collingwood are loving that football. The amount of times they just chip it around. Don't they have confidence in Cloke just to kick it long to him. 

But I do like the father/son rule and it is a nice to see another Silvagni running around. Done some nice things. 

Anyway flicking to wimbledon now.

I think snog was correct, I saw a few of the players pashing behind play.

This is a godawful game of football. Jesus Christ, how did this get fixtured on a Saturday night over Melbourne vs Adelaide?

Compare where the 4 teams were at the end of last year and it's mindboggling that this was considered the premium fixture.

Thanks Channel 7, you knobs! Same bloody teams getting the premium games week in, week out.

It's not really a pure 6 day break though, is it. Players will spend hours in recovery following the match, probably getting home close to midnight Sunday.

And then they have a 4 hour flight on Friday. It's not as cut and dry as a 6 day break IMHO.

Haha it really is as much of a 6 day break as any other 6 day break.

Nothing that i really concern myself with tbh!

So basically what you're saying is that these "Around the Grounds" threads are pointless. Why'd you read it and comment?

BT: Carlton are down by three goals, they're going to have to kick four to win, or at least five.

They commentate as if viewers are completely braindead morons with zero knowledge of the game, not even how many points a goal is worth.

good pickup rtg.......can i blame predictive text or some such?

Blame predictive text DC but, hey, we all have our reasons for going to the footy. Picket goes in the hope that Oscar Mac drops marks.

Actually I reckon he might enjoy watching him take marks RTG....preferrably in a Casey guernsey

Too much celebrating last week??

Moons is always prattling on about young teams not travelling well. Maybe some cred to that

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
