Geeze we've butchered some opportunities. Could almost have kicked 100 points.

Matt Jones has been dreadful.

The rest is pretty positive,

We certainly have, but it's great we are creating them.  I dare say that we would have converted them at a dry MCG and not in slippery NT.

It's a shame about Matt Jones - we works his socks off, but his disposal tonight has been shown up in these conditions.

For those that have a crack at our leaders that goal from N. Jones was all about leadership. Took it on himself and delivered.

That Pav free kick was very soft. Had it been a first year player it would have been play on.

Slowed down a little in that half, but at least they didnt score.

A huge % boost would be nice.

255 in the 1st half! That is seriously Elite and very Hawthorn like!

We are on track to break some PBs here.

Amazing effort

Two more games for 2017 and 2018 as per PJs comments in the top end.

Even when we're running all over them, disposal letting us down. Just so many of our players with questionable disposal and a real lack of footy smarts ... M Jones, Harmes, Hunt (OK, young), Kent (great with the goals in front of him, but too often turns it over), Grimes (of course), Petracca (OK, young) - there must be a few I'm missing as well.

I know a few here [censored] about Oscar Mac, but at least he usually hits his target. Speaking of which Mitch White looking good. Some footy smarts.

Carry on.

When was the last time we'd put a game out of reach at half time?  I know - careful not to jinx etc, but I can't see this game becoming more free flowing and high scoring as it goes on.  The players all looked stuffed.

Probably should be in front by more given our domination but hey if we continue on this path it'll be a very big win. I also suspect that if we continue getting these numbers the dockers just won't be able to hold us back.

No mercy Dees, kill their spirit in the 3rd quarter and go for the jugular!

Playing in Darwin is ridiculous. Players are out on their feet before half time. The humidity must be killer.

 

We are playing now okay-ish and controlling the game, which is great to see, but Its a terrible game to watch because of the conditions.

 

Need to come out and smash them early in the third quarter - the heat will inevitably kick and and then go out of the game after the first 10 mins IF we can again hit the scoreboard.

 

My only complaint currently is that we are not absolutely burying them.

    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.
