If we can hold Brisbane to 27 goals we can consider it a win.

Clarry's been quiet too. We appear to be half arsed in our tackling. Hope they get their act together in the next couple of weeks.

Only positives so far are Hunt and Petracca playing to their strengths and having an impact. Gawn is wining taps, but it's not leading to any effective clearances. Everyone else is playing poorly, and the effort is non-existent.

Hope the coach gives them a rocket and makes them have a crack. We're getting shown up by a worse team than us who are more organised and working harder.

attitude going into, preparing for this game

We are playing like a side that doesn't want to be out there, soft dropping marks, its like we just want to get through to round 1

Not sure if you've noticed Sisso, but going back to early 2000's, our season proper has generally reflected our pre-season form.

Imagine having to go to Amersfoort ?

I've been to both Cranbourne East and  Amersfoort. There are an awful lot of Dutchmen there but frankly, I prefer Amersfoort.

Lions taking this game very seriously. Dees taking it half arsed. Scoreline reflects it. 

Is it for four points? No. Just get through boys.

Started ok with their first 2 goals coming from Oscar McDonald being a total turnip.

After that it’s been lazy tackling, poor skills, inability to get balance at a clearance or a crumb and the backline going to [censored].

Why we are playing a spare behind the ball in a practice game is beyond me. Are we really that slow????

Not surprised Brisbane are good. More disappointed we can’t string any midfield skill together

I backed him last week, but he missed a handball, slipped over etc. He had a bit of a mare early.

Possibly, can’t find it in myself to get worried about this yet though

At this stage I’ll take my chances with C wagner over ANB

    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.

    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
