BT's commentary is either inane or insane.  I suspect he only gets the job so that the stupidest amongst us can feel there is someone stupider.

I love the way the Crows play. 

 

Isn't the new rushed behind rule supposed to be a ball up at the top of the square, not a free kick?

Foxtel just lost audio. Someone up there is listening.

Brad Scott .... second to go.

Let's hope so.

Although the Eagles look destined to be a top 4 side, so you could argue that the loss isn't as bad as it looks.  North are headed down the ladder, how far that is will determine his fate.

He has limitations - next level will always elude him

GWS on the bottom of the ladder, enjoy it while it lasts

Would be curious to know if any team who ended Round 1 at the bottom of the ladder went on to become premiers?

So far Adelaide, West coast and Geelong are looking the best of the bunch early this year.

Apart from us if course ?

Will Ross Lyon see out the year if Freo keep playing like this?  They've got Fyfe, a few decent players and the rest are... meh.  They could be in for another long season.

I think Freo looking putrid is making Geelong look better.

Lyon's game plan looks dated and Freo's cattle are lacking (Cam McCarthy is one of many having a stinker). If Fyfe hasn't signed his contract by the bye, and Freo remain hapless, I reckon he'll be gone.

We finished round 1 sitting 6th on the ladder

Bold (insane) prediction -  we wont drop below 6th all season

Cameron has to have a bit of pressure on him this year...

Making the 8 won't be good enough and with that list anything less than a GF will be deemed a failure.

He was out coached today.

He's been given the plum job but...you still have to coach the team, it's not just going to happen.

    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
