This is after a sample of one game without a crowd. The same teams have played the opening game for how many years now? ...and how many of those games have been watchable? If the AFL ne

Such a boring match.

There is only one player on the ground with the surname Shaw. Why do the commentators always refer to him as Heath Shaw? (They don't use the other players Christian names.)

It’s Been good listening on the radio today, (solid day in the garden), can hear the players, commentary not trying to become stars of the show. Well on the abc anyway.

Old filth habits die hard. Been happening since the plague of Shaw’s started playing for Collingwood.

They could splice in crowd scenes from the chariot race in Ben Hur.

How about the crowds from Gladiator, complete with thumbs down from the spectators when they are not pleased with the umpires. Release the tigers (the real animals) from beneath the trapdoors underground! That'll teach them.

On a similar note, I've always wanted to know what Garyablettjunior's first name is.

Can not get over how bad the AFL website .  Just wow.  The Match Centre is so bad

And to think of all the extra traffic they will be getting to see that mess.

Agree.  It's not even consistent.  When I looked earlier today the  broadcast info for some matches was different in depending on which page you looked on (both had the revised start times).  Very hard to quickly get information. The site doesn't remember your chosen location or that you have turned off betting odds.

I'm sure I've heard Brayshaw call him little Gary Ablett. Makes him sound like a five year old. ?

There's only one Taylor on the ground. He always get identified as Harry Taylor. Why?

Green always get called Toby Green. Has been for years. At least there's now some excuse for it ... another Green (debutante) playing for GWS tonight.

Still a boring match.

I thought the mail on Green Prior to the draft was that he was good but a risk as his injury would keep him out of most of this season? Oh surprise he is ready round 1.

Are you thinking of Kemp?

Green’s always been ready-made.

I thought Clarkson being there was crap on the optics and didn’t need to be there given the current climate.

But  we’ll agree to disagree.

Okay now you win!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
