I think I would give Harmes a 9 or10 tonight 'Pick'...he beat Selwood up then did the job on Danger.

He's a tough kid and moving along nicely no matter what those who think he should be dropped every week say.

Nobody ever deserves a 0. 

Omac was hung out to dry and still had the composure to take a good mark and kick the ball nicely to Trac with a minute left. He had no help on Hawkins. They should have put Frost or TMac on him one minute into the last quarter. 

I am disappointed that I am yet to see Hogan ever stand up in big games. He is not a pressure player.

No because his teammates do not leave him out to dry. When they do, he takes dives and hits players while they’re down.

Just a statistical take on tonight to compare (somewhat objectively lol) to yours PF.  Keep in mind Max would usually place higher as i can't factor in hit outs to advantage.  Harmes played a pretty tough lock down role so his rank is probably skewed as a result.  Clarry a furlong ahead of anyone else and nearly got us over the line with that performance tonight IMHO.....

Which part SW?  The ultimate role of a defender, especially a key one, is to defend and keep your opponent from scoring too often (ie., limit the damage). Struggles to hold the better key forwards in the comp when the question's asked.

Goody stuffed it in part by stubbornly refusing to move him off Hawkins earlier, but O-Mac has to accept part of the blame surely?

Hawkins is a huge man. You cannot expect OMac to match him. Hawkins is twice the size

He ran off him well

Goodwin f@&$ked up not OMac

Bit harsh on the players that got 4 they should have at least got 5. JKH and O.Mac deserve a 0 even Hogan deserves a 0.

I didn't think he ran off him in a damaging sense at all SW.  If he can't handle Hawkins one on one (keep the goal scoring to 3 to 4 max) or any other decent KPF then what is his role in the team?  Goody should therefore not  play him at all.  Would be better off playing Keilty or Pedders in his place and having Frost take the big boys from the get go.

Anyway, it's the same old same old at Demonland.  Whenever a chance to secure a sound spot in the Top 4 or 8 becons, we always blow it.  Still have a very soft under belly against the rated clubs.

he should never have played on him from the start. 

MOVE PLAYERS AROUND

OSCAR CAN RUN. 

 

USE IT

He's our full back but he not good enough to play there so he shouldn't be in the team. Frost can't be trusted should be on the second tall. Give Keilty a go at least he has some strength about him.

Jones a 4 is a joke.

Oscar and JKH scores are fair.

Our bottom six are NQR.

Agree. We finally have some players at, or stepping up to, elite level.

Sadly, our bottom six are absolute duds.

Scores for Jones, Milkshake and Brayshaw very harsh

Oscar was a lamb to bad coaching, not his fault, give Goodwin a 0 for that persistence

    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
