Good morning all I can’t overstate my excitement for today. Get to be in the rooms before the game for the jumper presentation then it’s meeting up with all the friends and family for the big day

Hi @Drunkn167

The season is done but we really need a win to gain respect and to get the club back on track.  I hope Gawn spews on Scully at some point and I hope we see Keilty in the circle covered in gaterad

We’re lucky Hawthorn are shizenhouzen. Need Jeffy to slot a couple, he’s been looking almost there.

Our effort vs reward has to be the worst in the league. Too many unskilled footballers lacking smarts.

...and then we run out of juice.

It's not the skills per se, they have the skills. It's the between-the-ears-skills, the lack of confidence, the second guessing, the don't-[censored]-this-upping, the pressure (perceived or otherwise) ... every player is only too aware of what's not working, and the pressure and expectation that that brings is almost impossible to ignore.

The big mindf*ck.

Trac’s set shots are laughably bad for an afl footballer. He’s been good otherwise and has an impact whenever he is near the ball. Time to start getting him up into the midfield instead and play to his strength.

Our set shots in general have been poor all year. We don’t seem to have anyone who can reliably kick straight. TMac did last year, but he doesn’t touch the ball anymore...

Garlett has been dangerous. He’s generated more opportunities today than all our other forwards combined have all season!

I don’t want to labor it but Trac “looking dangerous” and actually doing something of value over an entire game or season are two completely different things.

He doesn’t work hard enough/isn’t fit enough/not good enough to play midfield or he would be by this time in his career.

If you're posting from the ground then it's the 4G networks fault. 

You sure it’s not that “server issue” you mentioned during the week?

I don’t like to bag players too much but I’m really not sure what ANB contributes. Hope he has a big second half but he is so fumbly. Just runs around doing nothing 

Terribly out of form like so many.  Cupboard bare at Casey

when we knock it out in a tackle its holding the man. When they knock it out on us its dropping the ball

Yep from watching on TV they can dispose of it how they want whilst being tackled, they also throw it a hell of a lot.

Jeffy's too scared to have a shot off his own boot now after that earlier effort........not a bad thing.

I just realised I paused the game earlier and was 3 minutes behind. I was wondering why comments weren’t making much sense.

Jefffyyyyy!

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom
