Btw, I hate umpires.

Had less effect on the result than the absolutely atrocious set shots. Thought the umpiring was poor for both sides.

IMO the only negative of the night was goal kicking. 

Spencer time to step up and show us what u got.

We seriously need to learn from this, perhaps more than any time over the last 10 years. This was a game that could've set us up to become a real enforcer in 2017. Learning get from this imo is more critical than 2 or 3 years ago.

Frustrating loss, mainly due to the poor shots at goal. Missing some good players also, Gawn going down didn't help. We're going places. 

We are.

One of the most frustrating games though.

Our poor kicking was amplified by their good kicking.

With max and hogan out we did bloody well against a finals contender AT ETHIAD. How quick we forget.

OK, perhaps I have been a little harsh on assessing ANB...BUT, that dinky kick directly toward GFC goal in the last Qtr, which resulted in an easy conversion to Cats was thick as a brick... brain fade... silver service... you name it! A tendency to overate himself in my book!

Not just the shocking blues. It's the intensity, the lack of physical presence and inability to make a contest. 

He was lacking late but so was everyone else. Give it a spell.

North were 9-0 last year.

I'm not going to get into a historical stats discussion here cause we could probably go all the way back to 1850 given the time.

Its the same thing we say about beating Carlton last week, better teams just know how to win.

Thought we were hard at it today though

Yep. Spencer better dominate. He's got Sandilands up first. He's been asking for his opportunity and now he has it.

We would have won what with Lewis and hogan. Lewis's experience and calm head.

Bernie's tackle on Hawkins was huge though.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
