People who are there, is there a lot of wind? Spencer, Smith and Weid all missed from the same spot and all went to the left. 

No wind at all

Just like Decs poor miss I think they're all just overthinking it atm

I love Plapp. He'll be a great AFL coach one day. 

Thanks Drunkn - not a good sign at all! You wont see the tackle stats there but they are 36-18 their way. As a positive at least we are getting a good chunk on the ball.

QT STATS Disposals Wagner 8, Trengove 7, Munro 7, Scott 6 Goals Fritsch 2, Maynard 1, Lewis-Smith 1

Didnt realise Trenners had so many. Stretch would have been sling tackled into the ground 6 or 7 times.

maynard is giving away a heap of frees

Not as many as Kirby! Is that 4 or 5 Kirby has given away now. 


Maynard 3 or 4 - Maynard's frees have been a lot of non-footballer free kicks. High, tackling incorrectly, etc.

Poor Weiderman. The football gods just hate him at the moment. For those who are interested, 80% of the time he is competing, but none of it is coming off. He's had a couple of chances at goal. I think he is either 0.3 or 0.2. The set shot he should have kicked, he's had two snaps in the pack, one hit the post and the other was touched/rushed. He's taken 1-2 marks but they were on a lead. Hasnt taken a contested grab but crashed 6-7 packs so far.

that's the way it's looked to me too. he's doing all the little things you want to see a developing tall do, but he's just missing that final 'clutch' moment.

I like that the Weid is adding ruck time to his skill set. He'll come good in next couple of years as a serious asset if he can also ruck pt as well.

About 5-6 years ago, second year blues was a serious thing that was discussed before the '3rd year breakout'. I dont know where that has gone, but Weid looks like he is massively in those blues. The main thing is he is doing the right things and works hard. As a developing tall that is all you can ask. I think that Hullett looks shot of confidence as well. Hopefully later in the year when we get our injury list down we will start to play better and they'll get more of the ball and feel a bit better. 

Tackles 56 - 45 now. Really pulled that back. Not big numbers by any of our boys. 

HT STATS Kennedy-Harris 14, Kennedy 13, Wagner 13, Trengove 12 Goals Fritsch 3, Kent 1, Lewis-Smith 1, Maynard 1, Stretch 1, Smith 1

11 that quarter from JKH

Hes dome some good things - Lewis-Smith's goal at the end of the first was a direct result of a terrific groundball/hard ball get from Weideman.  A second quarter goal came after a neat pickup and pinpoint left foot pass that set play up.   He has a touch of class for a big man just needs the core aspects of his play to come together.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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
