less game time is definitely keeping things exciting for longer, and there's been some cracking games - gimme a close game over a blowout any day (unless it's us doing the blowing out!)

if witherden really is available i would hope we'd be keen

mcluggage is a gun; amazing that mcgrath and taranto went ahead of him; both good players but mcluggage is a pearler

Fair enough, each to there own I guess i don’t find JB anywhere near as bad as Luke Darcy.

Didn't get a chance to watch the Tiges/Port game but listened to a fair bit of it.  Sounded like it was a cracker of a match.

But how would have our team have measured up against either team?

At our best, we might have challenged Richmond.

I haven’t seen it yet but will keep an eye out for it, one thing is for sure JB thinks highly of himself.

We would have lost easily to both teams.

I think Port played far better last night than versus us.

We don’t have the ability to maintain intensity and focus for a whole game like Richmond and Port did. I think we would have given up an classic 4-5 goal early lead and maybe come out even for the remainder of the match.

Think both teams beat us by 5 goals + on last nights performance

If Port had kicked straight would have been an easy win for them. It looks to me that Richmond is beatable. Got back in the game 3 free kicks for goals shouldnt have been a close game

Agree... media are talking up the game which I suppose can be justified in the lead swings but really Port should have won by ten goals.

Hardwick's coaching was nothing spectacular. Should have slowed down the game and used his key forwards better.The fast game favours Martin so I suppose it's a trade off issue

I thought the umpiring standard was well below par AGAIN.

Also where the frees were paid resulted in quite a few score assists for Port.

West Coast are playing like they just had to show up for the points. They are paying the price for it so will wait and see what happens after 1/2 time.

Bad weather in Perth but not as bad as the umpiring.

    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.

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    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’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    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
