He’s not on his Pat Malone mate. 

Exactly. But he is a current captain out there.

He just [censored] balance out in the midfield. Get him out of there and get Petracca in there.

No one is on him. 

He is a smart footballer.  They just showed Libba flicking him a handpass on the outside - Sparrow got sucked in to the contest, which we do way too often.  The bloke knows where to position himself and we need to be better in this regard.

73/27% time in forward half. Losing CPs, closing clearances.

This is not how we want to play (Goodwin said before the game we want it to be in our forward half, Mahony just now in an interview said it's not how we want to play).

That's this teams biggest problem. We don't know what to do when the game is not played on our terms.

Get the ball out wider once we gain possession and play a shorter kicking game where possible with this fickle breeze

Viney needs to start having some awareness and do the team thing

Quit taking on every single bloke 

Viney has no pace and can't hit a target so please go in hard and then give it off

We are putting zero pressure on them in our forward half. 

hope AVB gives the team a lesson how to pressure and tackle at Q time

I accidentally read that as ANB and it takes on a different meaning.

FRITSCH = SOFT

Yep, seems afraid of his own shadow. Does nothing most games, except a few behinds before snagging one late. 
 

But who do you bring in?

Great pick up from Hannan, and super finish from Weideman in the conditions.  Love the confidence to kick it!

6 inside 50s for 5 scores.  At least we are being efficient.

Hannan you legend.

Can't argue with this guy's attack on the ball.

Classy goal from Weid.

Downfield was a joke. Ball had not even touched the boot.

Just had to check the AFL rules to make sure I wasn't mistaken. They say the free kick can be awarded where the incident take place or where the ball is. Considering they were both the same spot it shows that the umpire literally didn't know the rule. For me that's worse than most regular mistakes

when playing footy the first thing to learn is how to kick the [censored] thing ,guess our players skipped that page in the instructions

Beautiful pickup by Hannan and great goal Weed

Well done Hannan

I wish they would stop calling Pruess a makeshift ruckman

    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
