Wow. 

My Uncle died last week. He was a massive Tiger man. 

This game will be hard to follow

R.I.P. Uncle Grant

Go Demons....

Pretty impressed with our start, although I'd wager it may drop off with the heat factor, but we are on top in the midfield and we are generally taking our chances.

Seen enough to know 666 rule will see us kick quote a few cricket scores this year.

Tom Sparrow and Keilty 0 mins that quarter,... interesting

good on field leadership by clarry that quarter when tigers were coming hard. he took the mark at CHB and could have easily played on but slowed play down instead. passes to angus, he kicks long down the line, reset again then bang, bang, 2 goals for us in 2 minutes.

They'll get a run in the second half I'd say, with a couple of our senior players getting a rest.

Commentator just said both sides have their main players in it......uhhhh

We're missing VDB, Gawn, Viney, Hibberd, Jetta, Lever, May, Jones, Lewis, Melksham and Hannan (i count at least 9 of our best 22).

Tiges are missing Grigg, Castagna, Lynch and Caddy from their best 22.

A few missing from Tiges, a lot from our side, commentator clearly has NFI

Not unhappy with that. Looked clean which is a great sign in JLT, especially in close.

Now no injuries and no blow out loss and I'll be happy.

Good to be posting on DL again after the summer hiatus :)

Fair indication of our midfield depth with plenty out but we have an onball trio of Brayshaw Oliver and Harmes...

You watching using AFL app? That's the way it is now. They don't give you the full screen

Trac is a much better shot on the run. 

He's like Robert Redford as The Sundance Kid

Good quarter. It is a pity the commentators talk too much rubbish.

I thought Preuss was dominant in the ruck

He's no Max, but he'll quickly become a very handy addition to our side.  If he can hold his own up forward then he can feast on the oppositions second ruckman when he gives Max a rest.

Most out there from our backline. Which is a bit what we're seeing - rest of the field looks pretty solid, backs not so much.

Oliver is Oliver, but with the stunning emergence of Harmes and re-emergence of Gus, our midfield bats very deep.

Spot on, bing.  Many of their scores came from a turnover or missed spoils.  That won't happen nearly as much with the first choice defence in there.

Annoying, at least I don't get the Iphone view anymore, and at least I watching the game, not whinging just asking

Hoping Trac can work on his set shots. He’s great otherwise and could be such a damaging player for us this year.

We look to have good depth through the midfield. Preuss has been fairly poor though. Opposition ruckman have just been taking it out of the ruck against him. Harmes and Brayshaw both look like continuing on from last year and dominating again.

    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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
