Max destroyed should have played pruess and if we don’t win a clearance we are cooked, any team with some speed will destroy us, at least the hype might die down we are no where near it unfortunately, and with a tough draw I’m a bit worried now

has anyone noticed that other than a three minute burst of three goals we have scored around 2-5 behinds in almost 3 quarters of football.

This has been atrocious

Our "stars" got an absolute spanking today.

When was the last time Gawn, Oliver, Brayshaw, Viney, Mcdonald, Jones and Petracca ALL had no impact?

Extremely concerning. The warning signs were evident during pre season.

Agreed, out worked, out pressured...

Really ....ing dissappointing

Really need some outside run instead of playing Jones and Viney on the outside. 

So many players out of form. We can't carry players out of form and play so many depth players. We are in serious trouble for the next few weeks.

Umps evening up something fierce now.

Where are we all drinking after the game to discuss and lament this pathetic display?

Frost and Oscar [censored] off

I never understood the blind faith and umpteen games gifted to Oscar (over an experienced and reliable Dunny) and never will.  Very poor decision by the FD and remains that way years down the track.

Too easily lost and shaken off by his opponent and looks as slow as a wet week when the ball hits the turf.  May for Oscar FCS.

Boys have been reading too much of their own press. Absolutely smashed and look massively underdone. Looks like it'll take a month or so to get rolling.

Frost is the new Fitzpatrick (tunnel ball) and Dunn (torp) and should never play for us again 

I suspect May will come in for him next week.

No way you could put Pettracca in the same category as the rest of those players. He has never played consistently good games like the rest of them.

While it looks bad... If you could magically change things so Viney and McDonald were in form the other players wouldn't be playing so poorly. It's a snowball effect, but can quickly snowball back the other way too.

    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. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
