The Viney injury has really upset me. 

Me too.  A lot more than the loss on the scoreboard.!

Yep - the group I have lazily come to refer as the foot soldiers. Exactly those players in fact.

I thought White in particular looked way in over his head. I hate to single out a rookie listed player in game 3(?) but he just couldn't compete on any level. It's a very tough way to find out that you're not at the standard. I don't begrudge him or blame him, just think it's the harsh reality.

I hate to say it, but did Goody make an error in selecting him?  Should we have given a JKH, for example, a run and left Hunt down back?  No one gets everything right, but it seems the selections backfired on us a little this week.  Very easy to say in hindsight, though.

Jack Watts was speaking pre game and saying thim him , Jeff Garlett, and Jesse Hogan all big chance to play next week.

Where?

 

Triple M reported (via AFL today, or whatever that crappy fox show is), he damaged his hammy further at training and has now torn it.

Hunt, really? Sorry but seven possessions doesn't cut it for me.

When he went back to his usual position.

Melbourne's media department should be fired for letting Channel 7 interview Bugg.

Effort and everything aside, that was a 15 goal loss

Man, there's always friggin' one, isn't there?

Tyson?

Looked to have hurt his knee in the dying seconds of the game. Struggled off the ground with help from a medical staff member. Knowing his knee history I'm not expecting good news.

TMac also limping heavily at the end of the match with heavily strapped leg so hopefully he pulls up ok. We're the walking dead at the moment. Shame to see injury ruin what is a very promising football team this year.

JKH was never in the mix due to a club imposed ban on him, Kent and BenKen.

well tonight was a downer. Yes the 4 games in 18 days did have an impact on us. But we lost this through lack of effort, the whole team was flat, we did not tackle, we did not chase. Putting both wagner and white down in the backline threw it out of wack, both did very little for the team. Hunt and Harmes both quite. Bugg may as well went off after that hit on the swans player as he contributed bugger all. We failed to man up so the swans just chipped it around us all night long.

 

Guys need to have a good long break and bring in some fresh players, wager, white, bugg, Harmes and possible ANB could all have a rest and practice their skills with Casey.

Just didn't have the soldiers to pull that one off. 

Although, Harmes kicks that soda in the 3rd and we'd be down by only 1 goal. Players could have found some belief after that.

That's what happens when you play 4 games in 18 days.

It takes it's toll and it did.

This was the result I expected tonight but convinced myself it wasn't going to happen...

I must have misheard him in the Lindsay Hasett room.

You're kidding yourself if you think the season is over.  Our backs are against the wall, but we've shown the ability to overcome some of those challenges this year.  4 games in 18 days will make it tough for any side.  Let's see how the next few weeks pan out for us before we start giving the season away.

    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.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
