Mrs W and I are booked into the Miami Hotel in Nth Melb for that Friday. Easy walk down to Arden St and back. Although coming back we will have to stop in at the Three Crowns Hotel for a burger and a couple of beers.

 

5 Star Hotel with Limousine transport to the gate?

Style indeed :)

Relax mate. AFL side vs a VFL side. They should've won by more.

This is similar to one of my favorite sledges to annoying and vocal opposition fans at games where we are getting beaten: 

'Your team is rubbish - a half decent team would have beaten us by twice as much'

Fake News with no mention that it was basically our VFL side. 

 

No doubt the comments will be coming, especially after Pert released our bold plan during the week.  The nuffs will be out in force.

"Honestly recon lav could be our version of degoey if he gets an absolute clean run at it.

Would love for this to be the year of parish mcgrath lang and lav"

The drug head supporters read a lot into this game. Just took the above quote from Bomberblitz. 

(This guy  also won the  spelling bee)

FMD!!!

I left 1/2 way through the last. What a mismatch.

I thought Jordan and Bedford were our best Dee players at least until 1/2 time. I don't even know what number Rivers is?

Hunt, Baker and Wagner going through the paces which is as kind as you can get. Hore was reasonable today as well. Bradke played a reasonable game as well.

Saw the same problems as last year. Poor kicking to position and too many handballs off target. It is a practice match so I won't be throwing my ham at the fridge. 

On a positive note Essendon supporters are as ugly as Richmond. 

The ganggangs were making plenty of noise in the last quarter.

Hardly a surprise when there were barely any MFC players in the game,and of the ones that were, at least half have no AFL experience. Save your ham for tomorrow if it happens then.

Any Essendrug  Teeth ? left in the Turf

What was the point of that game if they turn up with 2 sides?

Yes it is a Hit out, but playing young fatigued players against a fresh side after Half Time is a risky card to play. 
 

i Hate Essendrug

Yeah he played okay. None of our players looked likely just yet for AFL.

Other than the players who have played a senior game, Bedford looked the closest from today, but still only 1-2 games this year.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
