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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
