I can't make my mind up on ANB. He's a mixed bag. Every time I think I'm a fan he does something VFLish.

Maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle.

We just know how to win the ball. The problem is conversion. We are so manic with the ball that we sometimes don't know what option to use. We flood our own forward line. They had 5 inside 50s for 4 shots. Each shot coming from transition or an error at how half forward. 

We should be 8 goals up.

With sheer weight of numbers we should stroll this one in. But then I said that last week…and the week before too.

But we don't get value for our dominance should be 2 goal up at least

Kid is really improving and could eventually be quite handy. Give him a bit more time i reckon.

"Role player".  He's an average user of the ball which is being exacerbated by the wet.  Has been good up until this week.

Back 6 looking solid.

Hunt, Hibberd & Tmac on top with assistance from Mr Vince.

Hogan running under ball a few times.

Jones in everything but keep your feet son.

Cool hand Clarry has it on a string, bringing others into the game, clearance King.

Our gang tackling through the roof.

Viney kick quickly forward when you get a break... Hesitating a little too often and hand balling back to players under the pump or to no one. Looking close to his better form though. Just clean it up a little and go more direct when free instead of wide / backwards

Has been excellent so far, especially considering how long he has been out.

Hibberd made the fatal mistake of hand balling to Melksham who turned it over.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    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
