It’s always so different watching it on tv rather than at the ground...close games but this was WAY more stressful and worse to watch than the Hawks bumsqueak last week...

6: Salem
5: Jones
4: Oliver
3: Melksham
2: Harmes
1: Gawn

Apologies to Frost, Petracca, and Lockhart in particular 

We have a serious footballer in Lockhart I think

Hunt pivotal, Lockhart can play, Fritsch uses it well, Frost playing with confidence.

HMs ... Hibb (playing a cracker prior to his unfortunate gutsy injury), Viney (up & down but had his moments), T-Mac (effort and the winning point!), FritschKreig, Hunt, Lockhart (starting to find his mojo at this level..footy smarts!) and Hore (mostly for that amazing finish for a backman to help win at the end).

Marty Hore's goal. Neil Crompton in 64 GF?

One against team rules for the win, Hore's was probably part of a trained instinctive play Bobby (i'm guessing).

Either way they both resulted in wins for the club.

In only his 6th game, that goal was one of the greats for this club.  He is young and will no doubt have a few downs here and there but we've uncovered a beauty in Marty.

If Marty does the same thing in the last minute of the last game of the year, then we will all be happy ... ?

6 Harmes - he's really got back to his end of 2018 level and was inspired in the last quarter.

5 Oliver - the other member of the gang-tackling middlemen society. Sent it forward a bit more this week.

4 Salem - our silk out of defence.

3 Frost - seemed to be reading the play better than normal.

2 Jones - kept working his butt off. His wing/midfield switch with Angus has helped, although Gussie is now not so prominent.

1 Fritsch - I was critical of him last week but he intercepted well once Hibberd went off and provided run out of defence.

Hunt very stiff to poll so low this round. He was good all night except for the last 2 minutes where he bought his game to a new level and won us the game. He spots up Hore who kicks the goal to get us level.

Then when Gawn boots and up and under with about 14 seconds left on to the cusp of out 50, Hunt smashes through two of them and the ball spills to Harmes. We win.

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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
