I'm more worried about Kent than Weideman. Weideman's work rate is there & you can see he is presenting to the ball, crashing packs where possible & also doing things at ground level. Kent has looked pretty poor today from watching on TV anyway. Can anyone at the ground comment on Kent's work rate off the ball?

The team as shown on Channel 7 before the game. Spencer was named in the centre but I've switched him into the ruck.

Cox played really well in the first half and now is in his jumper - looks like he is being held over for Monday...

Only watched the 3rd quarter so far but Weiderman has been good. Crashed into a few packs, buried a bloke in a tackle, took a good contested mark on the lead, few taps out of the ruck, hit up a target inside 50 to setup a shot at goal, grabbed the ball out of a pack and just missed a snap at goal. He's building in confidence. With more strength, conditioning and confidence he will be a good player long term for us, I'm sure of that. 

Shocking quality game, disposal efficiency less than 50% from both teams at present due to it just being a rolling scrum for large periods. Wagner has far more class than anyone else out there. Only one who can evade and get a kick off among the scrums. JKH off in the tracksuit now, no injury but they're saving him for Queens Bday if needed.

Few other of our AFL listed not doing much. Kent just jogging around, Stretch can't get near it, Keilty losing nearly every contest he gets near, Hulett puts decent physical pressure on with tackling but has horrible skills, missed every kick I've seen him try so far. 

Casey should be able to hold on from here and build more form and consistency.

Encouraged to hear the reports of the Weid's application and endeavour.  That's all you can really ask of any young, developing player.  If he keeps the work rate up, his form will turn around.

No wonder Wagner was allegedly looking dejected at training - he was solid vs Gold Coast and hes a class above VFL level.

What's the feeling over there about losing to Bangladesh in the cricket?

Pretty bummed out - the worst part is we played well against Aussie and the match got rained out and since then we have been shite.

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
