Wondering how many possessions ANB & Tracc have had after quarter time?

Posted

Clearance work is disappointing to the extreme. One of the most one sided performance I’ve seen in a while against us. Very concerning when the only mid missing is Viney.

They keep waltzing it out of the middle. Luckily we have a Lever and May shaped wall in front of our goals, otherwise Freo would be on top.

Max having a mare

I thought he’d have a massive one today given how “angry” he was over the off season and the fact the he’s playing on a debutant.

Seriously though what the hell is happening with our stoppage work? We’re getting belted.

It's been going downhill for 3 years, but we've lived with this falsehood that we have this amazing contested footy team.

Anb had 8 disposal in the first quarter. 

Since then he's had 1...

They seem to be setting up to get behind us and push it forward.....what ever it is we have changed nothing and need to

If I hear after the game, “we were unhappy to get beaten in the contest, we pride ourselves on that” I’m gonna vomit.

We have no reason to be proud of it. None.

Brayshaw hasn’t taken one centre bounce. He’s been on the wing all day 

Still hasn't impacted. Turns it over under zero pressure. 

We have an AA ruckmen against a rookie who can't impact. Winning taps. But zero impact. 

We are shocking.

Nothing to do with what's going on in the box.

Exactly. We know how teams are going to play our midfield, they even say it in interviews, they force us under the ball and spread away, yet we never seem to try anything to combat that.

James Jordan. BOG. 

Im with you. He's leading the others. Woefully slow forward line.

Is Goodwin the right guy? ?

Petracca is a class above. Worrying signs.

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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

    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
