We are an average team trying to play like millionaires. Get the ball forward, keep it in there, and run both ways. Our forwards are allowing the transition.

Gee, Kent is a disappointing footballer. So lazy. One handed grab casually through the middle.

Football. Foot to ball.

 

Seems pretty simple.

Seriously, this thread is a disgrace.  To those using this as their updates because they can't watch - both sides are over using it, both sides have dropped marks because of the rain and both sides have kicked a couple.  If we make ONE mistake on here 15 posters go ape.  Just settle.

We are playing well. But we're 1 point in front.

For all the domination, we concede shitty goals from [censored] mistakes, and don't score due to mistakes as well.

Wise we are playing ok, but if we stopped handballing it especially when we can get it long into the f50 we would be in a better position. 

So many dumb handballs kill us. The one in the centre after a turn over means a long kick in equals at worst a one on one.

i think we're doing some things well - attack on the ball, and the ball-carrier - and other things poorly - disposal, kicking to the 'right' spots, being the favourites of the maggots, etc.

Not he only one mate. We've handled the conditions well so far. Big breeze across the ground and extremely slippery.

Reading here you'd think we're down by 10 goals already.

Never said quality.  Said okay.  Anyone would think we're behind by 10 goals going by this thread.

Granted, I'm not watching, but these threads always feel like they are focused on the mistakes and then spontaneously celebrate goals, then revert back to the mistakes.

Surely if we're winning at quarter time, +18 in disposals, +13 CPs, +1 clearances, +1 tackles and +9 inside 50s, we must be doing something right?

    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. 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
