He started in the centre and had 1 possession to halftime I think.

He started on ball. At the opening bounce he was in the middle.

He did nothing the entire first half.

So he didn't get a touch at the opening bounce...you think he was in the midfield for the entire first half?

I reckon we started to get the mix right as the game went on.

Brayshaw is an integral part of that mix if we're going to be successful.

6. Clarrie - back yourself son and you will be elite as shown tonight 

5. May - awesome down back never looked in trouble 

4. Viney - set the tone in the first and was good throughout 

3. Lever - along with May controlled the backhalf although some strange decisions to punch when he could have marked but very good overall 

2. Trac - nearly set the game alight on several occasions and showed some real class at times

1. Weid/Jacko - loved their work together in bringing the ball to ground and second efforts at ground level

The response was in relation to the earlier post, which was wildly wrong and impugned the coaching group, not a comment on the efficacy of Brayshaw.

I agree with the sentiment of the earlier post.

I don't think the coaching group have handled him well at all.

I think we have had the mix in the midfield all wrong.

Tonight was better but as a group they can work a lot better yet.

There's a lot of premature love (and hope) for Jackson!

There's good reason for that 'Fanatique'...he's a beauty.

Yeah the sentiment was good, it just reeked of ignorance factually.

Unbelievable game by Oliver - it was everything we had been hoping for since his debut and shows that both he and Goody have finally understood what so many have said on DL and other places. That was the most elite game we have seen by anybody at this club for a long, long time.

6 - Oliver - trade bait? ?

5 - Viney - having a very good year

4 - May - love his physicality and leadership down back

3 - Petracca - not quite, but still good

2 - Harmes - thought he was good, in the first half especially

1 - Jackson - doing a great job for a young fella

Apologies to Lever. 
 

Salem was ok but not in my best.  He still didn’t use the footy to a huge advantage. 15 metre kicks are soft targets for a bloke with his talent. He can lift and show us what he is really capable of.

    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.

    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
