Melksham in the middle looks like the most effective of all the moves.

Tim Smith took that mark because he didn’t fly for the same ball as Weid. He has been excellent so far.

Jack Viney is a bull.

Two players stood out the most:

Tim Smith.  Clunked some marks and used it pretty well.  Can he cement a spot as a third tall?

And I've loved Goodwin's move of giving Hibberd the job on Martin.  He's kept Dusty quiet while also winning a bit of the bill himself.  Great to see Goody trying a few different things.

Where the hell is Weid?? Haven't heard his name once.

Over ran a ball, then missed a handball, otherwise going well for his new contract negotiations!

Fritschkrieg team killing turnover.... common mate

Both he and Spargo seem to be having 2nd year Blues.  Spargo worse.   Weide a little as well.

Hunt last year.

Its like a GAP year.

Can we sustain this intensity in the second?

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, he is the WORST special comments person on air.  Loves the sound of his own voice, points out the bleeding obvious and can't say it succinctly.  Has to waffle on and on to make his point.  Can't stand the bloke.

The uncontested turnovers are absolute killers.  We must have had a handful already.  Just bombing it from defence and it just comes straight back in.  

No run from behind the ball.  One or two too many at the coal face.  Need at least one of those coming off the back of the contest for the receive and ideally another forward of the contest (Geelong are brilliant at this in defence).  Get it forward by hand and commence overlap and create run

Lets stitch Harmes and Petracca together like Siamese twins after this season.   I want them to Trac square fore 3 months after the season.  

Should see an improvement, immediately after removing the sutures.

Our general field kicking may be the death of us.  Clean it up FCS!

With the election coming up, I'm thinking of forming my own political party. The 'Get Ling Off The Air Permanently Party'. I only need 500 members to register.

Let's be honest - we're not the cleanest side at the best of times, and this dew is playing havoc with us at the moment.  Can't fault the endeavour one bit, but if we don't clean it up a little, then we can't win this game of footy.

    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
