Some weeks ago, I wrote something on one of these Gameday  threads to the effect that I would really like to see Melbourne get off to a big start and then maintain that momentum for a full four quarte

Petracca has been huge today. TMac almost isn't rucking anymore, it seems to be confusing Grundy.

Get ANB to take Treloar out. Doesn't matter if he gets a few weeks.

"Melbourne's Clayton Oliver has six disposals at 100 per cent efficiency in the last ten minutes to be a key to the Demon's comeback"

Done not too much all day, but when needed the kid rises up. Give him a couple more seasons to get his tank 100% and develop his outside game and he'll be the champion mid we have so long been needing

A little harsh on the kid - he still has 22 touches, 13 of which are contested and 6 clearances to 3 quarter time.  Maybe he has set the bar so high now that a game like this simply seems 'average'.  Not a bad place to be in I guess.

Further to my earlier post, Oscar Mc has a troublesome hip. Hopefully we won't run out of steam with four players carrying some boggles.

This has a very Hawthornesque feel to this game.

Is that the one you wanted.

Yes but need a couple to end the contest. 

 

Five scoring contests for one goal will cost us!!

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

    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
