I cannot remember a season in which so many of  the games have been so bad to watch. 6-7 times already this season I have sat down to watch some footy (not the Dees, just trying to relax) and have switched it off. I actually switched the Commonwealth Games on, only to have to choose between synchronised diving, rhythmic gymastics or basketball!!

Carlton v North on a Saturday night - give me a break.

Agree,  I watched a movie instead and I normally enjoy whoever is playing on Sat night  ,  shocking scheduling.

Oh yes, we were just as bad....

You and others beat me to the punch. I think people forget. I remember rocking up to relentless shite week after week. And it's not a lifetime ago. Still, onwards and upwards...hopefully.

Carlton have scored under 100 points in their last 35 games.

You and 50, 000 others. Which is exactly why the contention that Channel 7 would actively encourage the AFL to give Carlton such times slots is so off the mark. Unless of course you think they have got confused and are actually trying to achieve low ratings.

This is down to the AFL.

Port v bombers ... hoping for a Port win (lesser of two evils)

Normally I would go for the Bombers opponent out of principle.

But if they beat Port and we beat the Hawks by 40+ we will go to the top of the ladder.

Bombers off to a flying start ... 30 points up on Port

and Daniher has hardly had a touch

port looking super poor today - just not running as they have in the preseason and the first few rounds

Port are shizen under any pressure and away from home. They are the biggest front runners in the comp. 

As much as I hate Essendon it is better for us if they beat Port. Firstly because of their 3-0 start but also because a win today takes pressure off Essendon and as we play them in 2 weeks, that’s a good thing. 

Think bigger picture!

In a pressure cooker Watts lazy effort stands out. 

 

He is copping it on the Port forum  lol

The word lazy is being used a lot, surprise surprise.

Remember the meltdowns on here when he kicked all those goals in a meaningless JLT game?

Good to see the mature recruits from Port making a big impact too. 

Is Boak playing?

Any chance you two can move on?

Man I am so glad the mfc made the tough call and got rid of Watts. Lovely bloke, great skills but those lazy soft efforts just demoralise a team.

Port forum:

"Sorry but Watts is no good. There is a reason Melbs wanted him out. Adds nothing defensively and is about as strong as a wet piece of paper."

"Watts lazy."

"Wats scared."

Didn't take long.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    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
