I'm heading to the game. If Darling flops around and plays for frees and is payed them, I will contemplate running onto the ground and throwing up on him.

Not long got to the ground, took my seat and had a cheeky little sip of spiced rum out of my flask. A Weagles supporter turned around and told me I wasn't allowed to bring it in. I took another sip an

With apologies to Dorothea McKellar whose grandson I reckon might have once played for Richmond and Melbourne in the days before these foreign clubs invaded footy:- I love a sunburnt country,

Helluva half of footy. So the umpires have no way to pay a free in that situation? Surely it's a free from the centre at the start of the next quarter. That rule would stop a lot of those half-time "meleés".

McGavin, much like the rest of his team is a pathetic little snipping turd and a downhill skier. 

Wasn't it Schofield?

Loved that quarter from our boys, got on top around the contest and finished strong. Just need to keep our feet and make the most of our set shots and we got this. Go dees!

Could look ugly for Oliver, hopefully a glancing blow but looked like a dive

Why would he dive? It was after the siren, so there's no free kick. All he'd be doing is making himself look like a dill.

The angle on tv didn't do it justice, but I doubt Oliver would be holding his mouth if he wasn't hit in the face. He isn't that sort of player. Nor would the umpire put a report.

Agree, I thought he hammed it up big time.

I was talking about the tackle on Hunt. Then that happened.

These umpires are disgraceful.

And weak as.  Did you see Shui in one ump's face mouthing off!?? Should have been a free kick against for abuse

Thought the same thing initially but pretty sure he got smacked in the teeth - every reason to go down like he did.

As we all know, you're fighting a 4 goal umpiring bias in the west, and you'll never see a more obvious example than Jeffy's perfect dispossessing tackle in that last bit. The very definition of spineless, unaccountable umpiring.

We're leading in Perth despite having about 5 players with either no influence or playing awfully - Garlett, Pedersen and Melksham all struggling, Hunt and Oliver being tagged out of it.

I can't believe how good Gawn has been after a 10 week layoff. Viney playing his best game for a year, if not longer, Tyson dominating in the clearances.

ANB's decision to kick instead of pass to Bugg was a bad one. Hannan should have kicked his late shot too. Either of those give us a nicer buffer but I'm pleased to be leading in the circumstances.

And on that last skirmish, either Schofield is a dog or Oliver will be copping a fine for staging. I'd be surprised if Oliver would take a dive like that but it did not look like much contact, that's for sure.

Agreed. Nothing in it. Intent was there. Execution was terrible. Oliver gets the Razzie for worst performance in a supporting role.

Let's not overlook Viney's greatest half of football ever. 

Perfect.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
