Agree but Tassie not ACT

no watches their local league 

nah.... Suns for Tassie if North doesn't go there first (will be interesting if the AFL put some relocation money on the table after this Tasmanian review ... would upset hawks which makes it doubly good!!)

ACT is not a bad market with Wagga and the Riverina ... has always been strong AFL country. GWS has to be careful though because the AFL wants to maintain the media appearance that there are two Sydney teams

I don't think we were ever quite that bad.

And just glancing briefly at the GW$ Freo game - the Freo skills look about as good as ours were 4 or 5 yers ago.

Why, because they're currently playing Brisbane?

They have repeat games against Adelaide, Geelong, Essendon, Collingwood and St Kilda (at the time the AFL made the picks that was three finalists from last year plus two sides tipped to rise this year, and features none of NM, Carlton, Brisbane or Fremantle, who were tipped to be the year's worst sides).

They have four tough road games (Adelaide, Port Adelaide, West Coast, GWS). And they have to play a home game at Etihad against Sydney.

I fail to see how their draw is soft.

Lions seem to have had a rough draw to start the year. 

- The 4 games so far vs Saints, Demons, Port and Tigers and

- 3 of 4 games intertsteate:  2 trips to Victoria and 1 to Adelaide. 

No wonder they've run out of puff.

Would like to see them win a few especially against the teams I really hate (have only moderate dislike for Lions which is the best I can give to any AFL side).

Hoping Hunt gets his mojo back tonight in the Casey game.

We’d love to see him back to his dashing best on Anzac eve.

I don’t believe Adelaide were trying last night. You can delete all my posts but you can’t hide the truth.

So when will the "integrity board" start their investigation?  LOL

Picked up a snippet on SEN when driving today. They were interviewing Jeremy Howe and asked him how he felt like finally having success after he played for us. The tyres are getting pumped up on the Collingwood bandwagon again. I switched off the radio.

Lions were horrific. Reminded me of Neeld era.

Sitting there wondering if and when our next goal would come.

Stop trying to use Tasmania as a Victorian tip. We really don't want your rubbish.

What success?      Hes achieved nothing at the Pies and they have sucked since he got there.

    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.
