Popped in at training for just over an hour and nice to see Joel Smith back training - albeit just with Crossy. Saw his scar and the medicos appear to have done a great job. He is setting himself for

Am I the only one that thought JKH was pretty good today?  Retains his spot easily I would have thought.  We should have rested Hogan against Gold Coast. I hope we don’t end up regretting it...

He had 14 disposals at 100% efficiency on Sunday ?

Garlett can not be retained after that.... 0 tackles for a speedy small forward, I mean come on man, get serious and respect the jumper.

Spargo isn’t ready. I said a few weeks ago he wasn’t strong enough to stick tackles. Today it was his lack of composure and inability to kick 40m. Just not ready.

It won’t matter who comes in.. we cannot beat sides who keep the ball away from us. West Coast are number 1 for it. We will not give a yelp in the last 2 games.

You can put in your whipping boys, or go for the ones who actually ARE likely outs.

Garlett, Hunt are definites. Hunt was atrocious, and looked pretty sore. Garlett was back to his absolute worst.

Melksham and Hibberd the obvious ins. Gee we missed Melksham.

Then we need to trade Hogan. Four set shots at getable distance and angles two go through and game won. None go through we loss. He is never going to deliver on his potential. Just hadn’t got the right stuff!

Yup. With a more settled 22 and in a better overall game I think he'd make way, but man there were some disgracefully poor demons today. Garlett and Hunt head of that class. Pedo ANB in the gun. But JKH won't be dropped.

Hunt was really poor and is injured, Spargo fired blanks and Jeffy was at his very worst. I don't think we can drop both Jeffy AND Spargo but they both deserve it. 

Are either of Melksham or Hibberd ready to go, injury wise?

I believe hogan has no confidence, should be dropped or rested, Garlett lets us down time and again, jkh is pushed off the ball to easily. Hunt was not a patch on last year, someone has told him not to run any more.

In : melky, hibbo and hannan, not sure on hunt. Pedo to ffwd

    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
