Gawn - our only winner  tried hard   Battled and contested marks. BUT hit outs were not effective   Cost two goals which was crucial 

Hibberd - was hardly sighted  tried to run but needs to use the corridor 

Viney - prolific without effect  Gets the footy but not effective disposals 

Petracca - tried but limited tried and tried but fumbled and fumbled and lifted and fell and lifted and fell and kicked it forward to no one 

Oliver - few effective disposals, see Viney  gets the pill and huge heart but turnover and poor disposal 

Fritsch - some classy touches  soft and slow but then moves well and good goal so he’s frustrating 

vandenBerg - little to commend, hard at it but fumbled far too much 

Salem - tentative and slow, strange game and looks not fully fit 

Rivers - brave but limited But brave and brave and took on the game  At 19, a big

Langdon - tried but restricted but big heart and runs and battled

May - had little impact , stopped Taberner so a win

Melksham - continued to underperform - did he play ? Underwhelming 

Tomlinson - was rarely noticed - did he play? Underwhelming 

Neal- Bullen - had no influence - did he play-

Baker - didn’t take chances - another week to see what he does 

Hunt - a nothing game -battled battled battled 

Weideman - overrated and underperforming - conditions didn’t suit 

Bedford - just a kid- showed glimpses

Preuss - the experiment failed  weather did not help him  but his chase down on wilson was magic 

Pickett - Bambi in lights - too much hype  forget the speccy and the bump - kick a goal or three 

Smith - stuck to task- omg - he’s lost and has no way out

Lever - limited skills exposed-oops - did you say we gave up TWO FIRST ROUND PICKS AND PAY $600k A YEAR  - FFS

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    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.
