Weideman has great hands in close. Moves the ball like a midfielder from stoppages. Really promising start to this game for him.

Trippled down on the forward pressure.  Think that dam will burst. 

Brayshaw a worry imo, hopefully he works into it.

Happy that Stretch gets a go this week but yes he needs to show something on the outside.

Nibbler gets a go because we saw the stats, numerous pressure acts, distance covered, contests made, etc the stats that the coaches love.

Frost out because there isn’t a matchup

Weeds in, hasn’t done enough yet, I think

it should have been Pedo tall again forward. 

Jeffy in because he does perform if the side/game plan performs. He needs space and time against one opponent and will win every time. 

I called it STRETCH HARMES NEAL BULLEN NOT UP TO IT and have said so time and again when will this club ever learn

GARLETT a lazy footballer

Hogans kick from 50 hit the top of the post. Thats encouraging. Lever done well under pressure. Inside 50s are great but its never on a open break. Opponents always have numbers back

Richmond just needs to settle and they'll [censored] this in by 7-8 goals. We're awful.

Get numbers goal side and at least one front & square of the contested marks and not so many up! 

The last goal to the Tiges they had 3 loose men goal side of the mark at FF!  Zero us!  They ran off at will and shared...too easy.

Great D efforts by Hibb, Omac & Lever so far.

Hunt still going up for marks when he shouldnt potentially contributed to a goal against.  Good running effort but sloppy disposal.  Most sloppy coming i50 but they are under a stack of pressure

They are killing us with their spread as they move out forward. They are virtually waltzing it into their 50 when they get their opportunities, whereas our entries look rushed and are giving our forwards no quality entries.

This has clearly been our main issue for the year, as we have recorded the most amount of inside 50's in the comp, yet cannot capitalise on them.

A little composure (a lot of composure) is needed. We are lucky nothing has really come from some of our sh!thouse turnovers.

We have coaches for near everything...

Can we get one for Composure ?

If we had composure we would be 3 goals up. Both teams lacking composure at this stage and it is just looking like aerial ping pong.

Keep up the pressure for another 3 quarters and we can win this game of footy.  Easier said than done, but we can do it.

Impressed with Weideman in the first term.  Really positive start to the night.

We are the worst fist on ball team. Somehow we always hit it to disadvantage.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
