5 - Hunt ( freakish and exciting running )

4 - Oliver ( great accumulator)

3 - Watts ( showed heart and fortitude all game, everywhere)

I thought Spencer and Smith offered more than Melksham and Hogan.

6. Oliver - this guy.  If he's not already the best player I've ever seen at the MFC, he's not far off.  Only gets pinged for throws because the poor mere mortal umps can't see how fast his hands go.  

5. Hibberd - looked good as soon as he appeared in play.  Can kick and is tough.  Set the bar pretty bloody high in his first game.

4.  Hunt

3.  Watts

2.  Petracca - great effort when clearly lame.

600 - Hibberd. Did it all. Kicked it alot and creative. Marked it. Tackled. Nice goal.

5- Watts. Courageous. One bad mistake but keep us in the game. Great 2nd efforts. More dangerous as a fwd. 

4- Jetta. Solid. Good smart defending

3- Hunt. Run run run. Needs to fix disposals... but great goal

2- Frost. Tried and defended all night.

1- Oliver. Accumulated the footy. 15 handballs to no one though. Did one special clearance to Garlett.

 

-5 jkh... delist now. small and fumbled.

-4 vince...now soft. Needs to get forward. 

-3 tyson... poor disposal. ineffective handball. accumulates but not damaging

Anyone comparing Pederson's contribution to Dawes just isn't paying attention!

So true.  Contests, marks, rucks.

Not afraid of body contact? Do you remember the first game he played for us against Port Adelaide??? 

He may be able to do these things but on the training track doesn't count 

So is he forever marked for one incident?

A bit like FOB in the 88 GF? And he had a stellar career before and after

Hogan needs to smarten up quickly. He's going to be a poster boy for wasted potential at this rate.

6. Hibberd: Provided exactly what we thought he would. Aggression competitiveness and a booming left boot. 

5. Oliver: 32 disposals at 75% efficiency along with seven tackles. Enough said.

4. Hunt: Provided his usual dash. Threatened to really break the game open.

3. Watts: His athleticism in the ruck actually gave us an edge in the third quarter. Understandably ran out of gas in the last.

2. Jetta: Typical Jetta game. Did his job in the back 50 on the Richmond smalls who had little to no say in the result of the game. I know it's early, but happy 100th next week Nev!

1. Frost: Some outstanding efforts. Much prefer him to OMac.

It consisted of a match simulation for one half  and then a free choice activity time.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    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
