And I second that. Amazing. God he has a go. Given he's got what appears to be a rather fragile, giraffe-like build, he just throws himself into everything. Should be an inspiration to the rest of the slackers.

So hoping he gets all-Oz again.

6.  Big M  - difficult to watch this bloke trying to lift us in a match so often and not many able to go with him.  Hats off to the bearded wonder!

5.  Clarry -  Too many handballs that result in wasted possession and needs to learn how to kick to a target.   But without his ability to get to so many contests and hold up play until the calvary arrives we would get slaughtered!

4.  Harmes - as above but great work rate around the stoppages providing 2nd and 3rd efforts.  Unfortunately too many turnovers killed off some of the good work.

3.  Tracc - fabulous first half playing IN THE MIDDLE.  Finally looked dynamic, powerful and "On" with the ability to break tackles and run off into space, assess then kick to advantage.  His turn of speed then torp to Jeffy out of the middle for the joe the goose shows he has got it.  The Goody game style doesn't help him stay fresh however and faded in the second half.

2.  Gus - cleaned things up a little in the second half and finally looked a little like old self.

1.  Fritsch - ugly decision making at times but never threw the towel in and got plenty of the ball in the open (which i can't say many others managed to do well aside from Salem, Harmes & Gus....the Pies killed us in the uncontested gets then toyed with us afterwards).

Our kicking for goal was soul sapping.

6 Gawn - fired up after Robbo went for Grundy as AA pick ahead of him. Both are certs. But Max has shown why he's starting 18 with Grundy on bench.

5 Harmes - had a great battle with Treloar for much of game and his run was super damaging.

4 Brayshaw - how composed was he all game. Reminiscent of 2018 at last.

3 Fritsch - finally played like his pre-season form suggested. 

2 May - how good was it in the first half having a defender who wins in the air. Now we know why we got him.

1 Petracca - Our only real link between middle and forward and again worked his butt off only to be let down by the odd bad choice of disposal.

Olly was prolific and was almost brilliant, but still fell back on handball instead of taking the game on himself and kicking to a lead. Gave away a couple of stupid frees as well.

for all the disposals they got, i really didn't think oliver, brayshaw, salem, or harmes were that useful with them...yet they were almost certainly all in our top eight or so players on the ground

So many useless possessions in this game,  headed by Oliver and Brayshaw.  A great reminder to ignore people who bring up 'supercoach' stats.

Negative votes to Jones, T Mac, Garlett, Hunt , Viney and Hibberd.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
