Feels so good to have full length quarters again.

    We still bomb,bomb,bomb into the forwardline indiscriminately!

    Baker amongst it. Looked comfortable.

    Amen.

    Jetta any issues on his hit on Tom Lynch? Lynch sooked it up big time. And Jetta played well that quarter.


    Promising signs from TMac. Lever's disposal hopefully rusty. 

    Forward pressure not good enough to stop their run out of defence. 

    Although we lead they looked more threatening when they went forward.

    Spargo promising.

    Lynch is an expert, bit of a worry.

    Reprimand I would think due to low impact and being in a contest (so not intentional). Lynch deserved it

    It is hard not to dislike Lynch.

    So I won't bother trying not to.

    He [censored] me to tears.

    Any idea why Riewoldt’s taken 2 marks on Jetta?

    T Macs taken 3 contested marks.

    Jones still knows how to kick a snag for our first.

    Death, Taxes, Gravity, Jetta always on a much bigger opponent (leads to him being crunched and carrying injuries for the majoirty of the season).

    Great to see TMac more mobile and his great hands.

    still not great with our forward entries but good effort around the the field. Baker and James Jordan showing a bit.

    Go Dees

    Good quarter. Lever, Baker and Petracca playing well. Good to see Oliver playing

    Surely any contact on that grub must be deemed as low

    Hit on Tom Lynch? Are you talking about where Jetta brought him to ground late in the qtr? That was barely a free, Lynch sooked it up at the umps as usual. Nothing in it. Lynch is a weapons-grade *log

    Can't see any significant signs of change regarding all ball use going forward.

    Our pressure has been fantastic which is nothing new aside from our lapses during some games.

    But all I want to see in these pre-season games is some genuine change in the way we move the ball.

    Early thoughts:

    1) It looks like Goody has finally figured out there is no need to rush in new players just because they look good at training - Jones and Jetta get games, while our third year men - Jordan, Sparrow, Chandler and Baker all get game time ahead of younger rivals.

    2) Lever strong in air, Spargo vision, Trac brilliance, Baker and Langdon tackling.

    3) It seems when Tiger bigs get free kick or mark in middle of ground we will sag off and ignore manning mark - thereby forcing their bigs to make right attacking decision.

    just one quarter though

    There were at least 2 instances in that quarter where we didn't man the mark. The first was just outside 50 and resulted in a shot on goal. Bit of a concern

    Why is Jetta always against someone a foot taller?

    Probably because we have a $700K a season CHB who won't play on a man.


    The siren at Casey Fields sounds like Gus the steam shovel from Mr Squiggle.

    Spargo might not be able to roost it 60m, but his kicks are flat and get where they are going nice and quick.

     

    The classic 4 up in the marking contest. It’ll work this year you’ll see.

    gawn's kick from d50 straight into the 'hot spot' at the top of the 50 was laughably bad

    tigers still look a mile better but at least are only a couple of points up

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
