I don’t have the energy to pick 6 but I would have Frost in if I did.

Anyone who can find 6 good players probably were lucky enough to find an unguarded  case of beer by the 10 min mark!

But to put up 6 names I'll go with:

Frost

Pruess 

Brayshaw

Jones

Jetta

Melskam

But this is really about who did something good rather than who played well

6.  Salem

5.  Frost

4.  Harmes

3.  Hore

2.  Viney

1.  Gawn (& not for his ruckwork!  Competed ok otherwise but still not the same dominant Big M of recent years so far)

6 - Salem

5 - Harmes

4 - Frost

3 - Oliver

2 - Gawn

1 - Hore

Our bottom 9 were worse than their bottom 9 by a long shot..................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6. Gus - Our best mid by a mile today

5. Frosty - Our best back by a mile today

4. Salem - Continues his good form.

3. Viney - Fought like hell while being held without the ball, roughed up and generally scragged at every opportunity.

2. Oliver - Got a lot of the ball.  Tackled hard.  Set up that opening goal with a pass that was pure [censored]. 

1. Preuss - He's doing what we need him to do, providing a tall target forward and rucking a bit.  Even put in a few nice tackles.

Put myself through the replay last night to check if my eyes weren't deceiving me and came up with following.

6 Salem - Our only defender who regularly laid a tackle.

5 Brayshaw - our only midfielder with the confidence to go forward - unlike Clayton who looks as if he is in fear of being tackled and flicks it off sideways/backwards nearly every time.

4 Frost - The critics won't like it but there were no major howlers and he worked really hard on Bruce (two marks).

3 Petracca - Yes he made mistakes, but he was our only lively forward all day and the only one who looked dangerous even if he ballsed it up on occasions.

2 Hore - Plenty of intercepts and in general safe with his kicking.

1 Viney - Huge first half trying to lift the guys.

Preuss had some memorable moments early but faded again and big Max spanked Marshall, but the stat that worries me was just 11 pressure points.

5 Brayshaw - our only midfielder with the confidence to go forward - unlike Clayton who looks as if he is in fear of being tackled and flicks it off sideways/backwards nearly every time.

4 Frost - The critics won't like it but there were no major howlers and he worked really hard on Bruce (two marks). - - -  has some speed, - has a go

3 Petracca - Yes he made mistakes, but he was our only lively forward all day and the only one who looked dangerous even if he ballsed it up on occasions. - only player who has had some Acid applied to him over Pre - season

2 Hore - Plenty of intercepts and in general safe with his kicking. - a player worth watching, to see how he goes

1 Viney - Huge first half trying to lift the guys. - playing under duress

Preuss had some memorable moments early but faded again and big Max spanked Marshall, but the stat that worries me was just 11 pressure points. - gives some hope... but needs to do a lot of 2019 in-season, away from club distance running... to work his engine overtime.  He needs to be  MUCH  fitter for 2020.

 

 slow is out Now with 666.  unless they have special skills.

Tom Mc and the Weid  zero points after 5 games, yet  huge no of inside 50’s in a number of our games. Don’t get how they couldn’t have 1 point with nearly a quarter of the season gone. Something fishy going on. TMac injured? Weid already got at?

Mention to Fritsch. In a backline that is almost always on red alert he uses it every single time.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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
