Jetta - looked painfully slow

May - effective and talented

Lockhart - showed some promise

Hibbert - disposals were costly

Harmes - lost in defense 

Lever - an encouraging display

Petracca - classy but sporadic

Thomlinson - had little influence

Viney - former captain’s game

Oliver - didn’t appear interested

Gawn - was easily outmuscled

Brayshaw - little to commend

T.McDonald - played without passion

Pickett - impressive debut game

Melksham - was hardly sighted

Brown - performance to forget

Bedford - far from ready

I thought you were a bit harsh on him but you were right he's not up to it and never will be, sadly we have quite a few that are not up to it.

I’d love to know what was going on with Oliver and TMac - both of them looked absolutely knackered from the first bounce. They each had the look of someone who has been ill.

To be fair, he was pretty good against the Hawks in the last Marsh series game. Sadly though, the intensity went up another level and he wasn't able to cope.

Agreed, and Max too. They looked physically or mentally tired from the start.  I'm curious why?

A measured response joeboy... congrats for not going too hard on a bunch of young men who were cast into an impossible situation!

I think 'impossible' is a bit of a Steven Stretch.  Who was cast into impossible situations?  Travelling teams?  All teams?  Just the MFC?

If Melbourne accepted the Mission Impossible; I guess we can convince ourselves that West Coast thrived on Mission Improbable.  What we saw in that game was a replica of 2019's standard.

 

As for Joeboy's generosity...and against-all-odds predicaments....

Dom Tyson currently shaking his head, and thinking "didn't I dislocate my knee cap on camp horribilis and continued squatting, jogging, kneeling through incline and decline.  Now that is an impossible situation".

 

 

Joeboy, unlike Dom, I rush to this after every game.  This has always been the modicom of clarity and objectivity on this site.  If this is the new you, you might get more likes, but at the risk of selling your soul.

THE Summary of the 3 word is spot on But it is hard to play in a side that firstly has to counter elite disposal and organisation look again at the First Quarter we just Butchered the Ball and took wrong Options  our new Players also need some time to Adjust to our style exception Picket and Langdon 

I would spend the next 8 weeks drilling the players on creating Space backing up another and use of the Ball BETTER one thing the West Coast Juicers have is a System we dont however we can  BY just drilling it in to the players remember we had more use of the Ball 

I feel sorry for our Forwards but they too dont lead or organise correctly WCoast can be beaten if it becomes one on one .

Next Game be Daring Play Weidman Jackson Jones and Salem ( all can Kick)and persist  with them dont Play Tomlison on a Wing but down Back he could become elite with Lever and May play Petracca in the middle Oliver on a Flank Harmes as a tagger and Melksham as a defensive Forward Fritsch at FF

Kozzzy Pickett

I was super impressed in game number 1.  Hope the coaches don’t overthink how he should play.  Pressure. Tackle. Crumb. Attack. Kick goals.  That’s it  !

In 3 words...

love the energy

impressive debut game 

ignite the flame

Indeed did exceed expectations and can't believe his and Toby's   goal did not rate in the Goal of the Year.

Toby promising -and not our worst by any means.

Brown too fumbly and couldn't catch a cold Not strong enough in contest.

Langdon Great runner but really needs to uplift decision making to forwards as do most of Dees mids.

Tomlinson Often  got caught between The West Coast Speedsters. Let's see over longer period as great vs Hawks in Marsh 2.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
