So lazy. 

Getting players back will make no difference if our effort doesn't lift.

As long as Kim Jong-un doesn't launch an intercontinental ballistic missile at Darwin tonight then I don't have a problem with us playing there. Go Dees!

Forward entries are putrid mate

He doesn't work hard enough though.

Main knock on his game at the moment.

He will get there

For everyone ripping into JKH, are you even watching the game? 

He's getting in close, winning the ball, taking it cleaning and using it decently. Been one of our better players. 

Geez some of you are toxic.

 

You beat me to it

Excellent pressure and clearance

But this is a lesson for our team - watch and learn. TRANSITION AND CLEARANCES F OM DEFENCE.

To say we were right in it is just wrong. We lifted that quarter but if we're not careful it will be a shilacking. Just hope we keep fighting

They'd be doing the exact same thing to us at the G right now.

Hogan should have come back through the VFL. The bloke isn't remotely up to this level right now.

He's lucky Pedo isn't playing great footy righty now either. 

I get that he's been out for a while, but his lack of defensive effort when we lose the ball is glaring.

Close in clearances and stoppages. Winning contested ball against the league's best contested ball winners. More inside 50s.

We are losing in delivery going forward, and utterly deplorable defense structure when they're rebounding. We have competed well but structurally we've been badly outplayed.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
