Jones - was well held

Viney - continued poor season

Salem - far from convincing

Watts - some isolated class

Petracca - just some cameos

Tyson - prolific but wasteful

Oliver - many irrelevant handballs

Stretch - quieter than usual

Kent - was hardly noticed

Frost - some good interceptions 

Melksham - nothing to impress

Hannan - not senior standard

Vince - game has passed

McDonald - was generally steady

Weideman - nothing to impress

Hunt - too predictable today

Neal-Bullen - improving each week

Bugg - had no impact

Spencer - almost broke even

Garlett - took his chances

Jetta - always slows momentum

Harmes - tried but rough

Fairly good assessment, but can't agree with Kent, McDonald or Spencer.

Kent played a hand in many of our scoring chains and put his body on the line time and time again. Thought he was very good.

I'm not normally a McDonald basher but today's game was horrendous. He made so many stupid errors that I walked out of the G wondering if he has two brain cells to rub together. Couldn't believe some of the stuff he did.

Spence got slaughtered in the hit outs but was good around the ground.

Jones :-  Lack of Leadership.      When the freo run was on I watched him closely.  No voice, no marshalling the troops, no sprays......  after each goal he just trudged back to the centre with his head down.

Bernie :-  Makes Stupid Decision.    Don't think the game has passed him, but he's made and attempted stupid plays all his career.

Overall I think the gameplay of manic play on and throw the ball around until hopefully someone is in space is to compensate for our lack of leg speed.  Unfortunately, not any options in the twos with real pace.

Didn't mind Frost's game when called upon. Can't blame him for the spoil not quite making it to the line. TMac also fought well but was on his own. Kent was good for a lead up forward lacking height. Though you did miss one.

Hogan: Minus 8 points

Careful about sledging Hunt and Kent in the same sentence. I thought both played well and Hunt was fantastic.

Bad loss, yes, but really cant believe some on here.  Yes, today's loss hurt no doubt, but look at Lewis and Hogan first.  If they were in we win.  Simple.  We lost by 2 points ffs.  We are still learning.  It will get better

It's not the 2 point loss 'Iva', it flattered us.

We were dreadful today and when they got a run on we had no structure at all. Just 18 headless chooks on the ground at a time.

Yep. 2 point loss and we were headless. Makes a lot of sense that.  We headed them by 21 at half time and if we had the class of Lewis and Hogan we win.

Hunt is probably our best player. Our real problem is Viney - he is looking like a one trick pony.

    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.

    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.
