So I'm starting this before the end of the game, as I'm so angry and disappointed and let down that I need to write something down to get it off my chest.   That game was lost from the moment Sal

I’ve said it a couple of times already but the very first passage of play rang alarms bells for me. Petracca, one of the best form players in the AFL has a free kick in the middle of the ground,

At the moment I don't feel like I'll do that at all. Why bother? Let down after let down after let down.

Pathetic confusion with overstretched supports.

Flat after the Alice game and started awfully.

No smarts working with the breeze against. Senior players as guilty as anyone.

Way too slow down back and in the midfield again. Oscar out and Tomlinson made us immediately better.

Forward line stank, had to have some talent there. 
 

Pretty much all the usual problems

I wonder if the players had a similar expectation to some of the posters on the Gameday thread this morning. Dees easily, Swans are rubbish, no Rampe, no Mills etc etc.

Well, Sydney are a team that have dominated us over the last decade with a very good coach who’s also very good on game day.

This wasn’t a surprise at all.

In spite of everything, we had every chance to win that. Fritsch, Langdon, Gawn, Salem all missed really straightforward shots.

Sure, the players were woeful.  But If there's one thing I know, it's that Goodwin can't get this team to play to their potential.

We look like a rabble, against a team that would actually be better served losing right now.

Next coach please.

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Monday 13th January 2025

    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
