What I want to know is who was that dopey fan that Gawny picked out in the crowd, only to jump up and run left just as Max kicked...??!  Needs to be named & shamed, I say!  (And here we were, blaming it all on poor ole Max!  LOL)

Goal Kicking aint that hard , but as we have seen some players have no idea 

It's this simple!!

Take aim for something behind the goals ( The posts have NO relevance)

Run reasonably straight and kick through the ball.

Sheeit I used this method and kicked plenty in an Illustrious Career!

It aint that hard!

Agree with you, Vagg. Most unfair, infuriatingly rude, inconsiderate and distracting for poor old Max - who was going about an expertise routine against such odds.

Can I assume you are 208cm tall? Gawn needs to seriously improve it but I assume the mechanics of kicking at an extremely tall height are not as easy as at others.

I was driving past Gosch's and saw Max working on his runup. Managed to sneak a couple of pics. Looks like he's improved it out of sight.

Pretty sure. There were a bunch of jackals and hyenas just down the road so I knew I was near the Holden centre.

Also saw Tarzan (Hunt) and a wounded buffalo (Viney). So it had to be Gosch's.

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
