Agree have to admire the Tiges. Their pressure all night and numbers around the ball and opponent was fantastic. But when the game was there to be won they cracked Geelong and put the foot down.

I am so bloody sick of all of this 'redemption' [censored] about the bombers.  It was self imposed, knowingly CHEATING on an organisational scale.  No fairytale here.  I hope the Swans absolutely tear

A highlight for me was Joel Selwood ducking into a tackle and looking incredulous that he didn't get a free. It would've been a free at Deliverance Park, no question.

Go port. Eagles don't deserve to be there, were pretty lucky to scrape in.

They are putrid, how we are not playing this game is beyond me.

Port getting plenty of ump non calls, they should be 8 goals up.

I nearly laughed when Hamish and Lingy said today what a remarkable come back from essendon going from wooden spooners to playing finals, they should be applauded. 

I will tell you why, because they wernt a bottom team that were like a Carlton, Brisbane or even Melbourne from years back where we were just crap. They got there players back who are pretty good and experienced. They were always going to ahve a better season. 

They got the wooden spoon because they lost all these players through there own wrong doing.

Was it McKenzie that didn't rush it and managed to knock it over the boundary line?  Whoever it was, that was epic.

Some phenomenal tackles and one-percenters in the last two minutes.

giphy.gifA somber mood down Geelong way this morning

didn't Dangerfield have Matt jones like kicking effiencency last night ? Sub 40% 

dangerwood really carry that team, so no surprise when they stank it up , geelong were putrid

skills and turnovers were abysmal, hardly worthy a final let alone top 4 team , notwithstanding the tiges pressure 

 

 

 

Ceratainly seem to be a two man team.

Had we won rnd 23, we would be there instead of Ess...a scary thought...and we would not have Viney or Hogan. 

Not feeling so bad about our rnd 23 loss...sorry if that sounds sacrilegious but I don't think I could bear another annihilation at Sydney's hands.  It was the loss to them that derailed our season...the infamous round 15! 

...and, I'm certainly enjoying the bombers crash landing

One could speculate whether such a jolly good flogging would be detrimental, as compared to gaining  some finals experience by the young players.

We wouldn't have been in this game. If we'd beaten the filth like we should have we would have been up in Sydney today and this game would be Port v Bombers

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 11th December 2024

    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
