from around half way through the last quarter Hawks looked like they were playing to save the game

Interesting if that is the case, not the usual Whorethorn. 

We can beat any side, if we are mentally ready for 4 Quarters of hard pressure.

I hate to say it but hawthorn are playing good footy. Just glad to see girlong lose. If you mis the 8 girlong thats what you get for recruiting Ablett.

slow delivery into the forward line... stopping and going backwards etc etc... you can say they were playing conservatively but they certainly did not have the risk pedal down

Can we lose all three - and make it?

mathematically

A quick ladder predictor says yes. We can make it with 12 wins as long as Sydney and Geelong only win 1 (Sydney can win 2 if you include the game against us).

Problem with Geelong now is they are following the 90's model instead of the 00's one.

Their best six is as good as anyone in the league. Their bottom six, not so much.

You get injuries to Ablett, Selwood, Hawkins or Dangermouse and they would be shagged to Gold Coast of last week levels.

In the back. But it should have been holding the ball against him before the hawk landed on him.  Furthermore it was very soft - plenty of more obvious similar in-the-backs not paid.

But it was Dangerfield....

So tomorrow is just so important to win for many reasons but we need to get our spot back off the hawks. We are now 5th. 

Gee I really hope the crows can knock off the giants tonight.

Eagles and Port - think it’s another one of those Port to win if we want top four, Eagles if wanna make 8. 

Gotta do Swans first. 

Barrack for Power.

Just saw a replay of the worpel contest against selwood that set up a goal. Good stuff by the young man. 

Great stuff wasn’t it! Should be the RS nomination this week was unlucky not to get it last week.

West Coast are looking like not much chop so far without their key players Gaff Kennedy and NicNat. We're a massive chance over there next week.

Yes it wouldn’t suprise me at all if last week really rocked the Meth Coke boys. 

Time will tell the story

If Port win today and we win the last 3 games, we will finish 2nd guaranteed.

My god could you imagine if thats how the ladder ended up r23. Collingwood v melbourne at the mcg week 1. Im not sure I could handle that week. 

I can't see port falling out. 

On another note Id love to see Richmond v hawthorn in a final not the gf obviously but just to see how the hawks match up against them again.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. 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
