You'd think a team that just missed finals by the smallest margin ever would realise you're never ever ever allowed to take your foot off your opposition's throat when you think you've won it.

We were darn lucky that wasn’t a free kick. But I suppose we got s raw deal, so it’s teat for tat

Surprise, surprise.  The opposition kick a few and get some momentum.  They are an AFL side after all.

Not only that, the umpires are giving them every chance to get back into it.  We go anywhere near them and they're blowing the whistle.

I'm getting sick of this umpire blaming. We are the more experienced team. Umpires are an excuse for the weak. Poor quarter from us, that's it!

Lever has been horrendous this qtr.

To be fair, Goodwin plays him as a second key tall, when in reality he is a third tall drop off defender. Apparently Wagner is of more use than Frost.

We bloody would be if we'd gone to Darwin this year.

No you said remembering winners, everybody remembers these, we're playing well tonight aren't we, having a few social pale ales and watching on big screen

You bought up a pile of cheats, not me

i have no time for cheating, my comments on the Essendrug disgrace were always rock solid. 

Let’s see how the Premiership Quarter stacks up

jobs not even close to being finished yet

Not our best quarter, but the Lions got their tails up on their home deck and kicked a few.  That's life.

A couple of early goals to kick off the final term and they'll drop their bundle.

Rocket up the backside Goody, what a shizen quarter of footy.

Any team five goals down against Melbourne is a chance.

The sad thing is, we need the percentage. We have literally not learnt a [censored] thing after last year’s debacle. 

Goodwin has a lot to answer for. He still has not been able to get this team switched on for 4 quarters. 

That we have to play an 8 man defense against Brisbane because they are dominating the game, is actually a joke.

Ugh. Going to watch the last quarter in bed. My enthusiasm Is really low. Was sitting in the lounge room with munchies and drinks and enjoying the night, now it’s like a late night movie that you have to watch but know you have to be up early the next day. Thank goodness for daylight savings.

The question is, in which quartervwill we totally drop our bundle?

It turns out it was the third quarter.

Dumb free kicks, lazy fumbles, overusing the ball in contested situations and poor skills.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
