Good start to the day. Choice of seats at this stage. Don't be fooled by the blue sky, it's bread monkeys here in the wind. 

 

I know in modern footy that being tough is putting your head over the ball and going when it's your turn. But you need mongrel in finals. Who provides the protection and does the damage for us?  I like Kent for name-related reasons, and TMac is a hard man.  We've got plenty of talent and no squibs. But who are GWS afraid of?

Such a meh change. JKH has shown zero at senior level, would have liked Bugg in ahead of him. Bugg for all of his issues has shown his best at senior level is well ahead of JKHs. (Hopefully no-one sooks up at a view on what we have seen from JK).

I'm a late out, so will be part of the TV audience.

I have a feeling. It started in my nethers ( a sure sign of veracity) and is evolving. Because I can't be there, I reckon Melbourne will have a mighty win today. 

This momentum will then carry us into a glorious victory in the Elim final.

I will have to rejig the nethers before subsequent predictions. 

BBO - late out (nethers)

Bugg would've only added 1 Goal 3 Behinds and 1 Out on full

Prefer JKH for his defensive run

Hannan was great last week.  Hopefully just a 1 week injury.

Just need JKH to not be a liability and we should be ok.

Big shout out to the MFC for embracing and rewarding their members this week. My 8-year old won the ‘Junior Mascot experience’ for today’s game. She’ll be running out with the boys, through the banner! Asked who she’d like to run out with (they get a choice), she said without hesitation, “Clarry, and if not him, Max.” She knows her footy! Great reward for a dedicated young Demon.

So no-one else doing the lap of honour? Surely someone else had nothing better to do on weekends and went to every single home game! ?

Massive chance for JKH to miraculously get a spot in a finals side after looking gone all year. Let's back him in!

The incremental difference between Hannan and JKH isn’t huge. Get around the lad.

We’ve definitely still got the offensive artillary to get this done. Go Dees.

Would have been good for Hannan to have another run before finals and add to last weeks effort. 

JKH to break the corralling stat record.

    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

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
