What happened to the holding the ball rule?

JHK walking in the rooms. Great news. 

That non decision on Hodge was a shocker.  Picked it up, got tackled, let the ball go... nothing.  It's reflective of the umpiring so far today.

It was a serious hyper-extension, so i wouldn't be celebrating too soon. Wait until the scan before we start thanking some deity.

How good has Smith been?

Lewis has been very good.

He is a calm head out there for us.  He, Salem and Hibberd can give us some great run and ball use from half back.  Feels like it's taken a term and a half for them to click.

Great lead up and inside 50 by Weid. Just needs to get more of it!

And Trac nailing a set shot for the first time in forever! He's having a great game so far.

Get injured!? ?

play safe, lose form, and struggle with confidence.  

...  and injuries can happen from playing not on instinct.

 

This IS the game we should be showing our form... running into the H&A season.   And they haven't turned up to play.  Tthey've turned up, to not get out of the team.

 

Too many around here,  saying don't get injured,  hurts the players psyche.   Tthis is why we are struggling.

Yet Tracca is trying hard,  because he has a burning arrse,  from the fire put under him.

We are two points down.  But, apparently, our backline is trash, they're running rings around us and we are stinking it up completely.  Can't wait to see when we're on, we'll win games by 150 points.

Most of the comments were based on the first quarter - and warranted.  Significant improvement since then clearly.

I guess he can kick set shots. Great lead and kick Trac. 

Just about his best lead for his entire career. He is so explosive and played his entire junior career in the forward line.

I'd have him as our third 'tall' and have Smith use his athleticism to pressure the contest.

Huge tackle from Trac! This is the best game I've seen him play in a long time.

I really hope we are playing at 40%......If not we have a bit to do. 

one week out from AFL season... we've got a bit to do.

We don't seem to have addressed our inability to lock the ball in the forward line as per last week's issues. 

Ground ball keep coming straight back out when our forwards can't clunk it.  Maybe Brisbane has dropped a lot of numbers back but it looks too easy for them.

I really dislike Rhyse Matheson....

He's a soft mid with poor disposal.  Plays for frees from Duckwood's handbook

I think you're referring to Christensen there GCDee. He came out of the ducking factory of Geelong so no surprises.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
