And they had the good sense to select Logan McDonald at pick 4 in the draft. North, the fools, passed on him. 

Hardly fools mate. Will Phillips is going to be one of the best players in the competition in a few years.

Unbelievable game from two A grade teams.

The crowd behind Bruce as he was running onto the ball at the end reminded me of Hannan’s run against Geelong in 2018. Gave me goosebumps.

North’s list management recently has been dubious to say the least.

They let BB go so you would think a replacement was the go and quality tall forward don’t come around too often in the draft

Logan McDonald was cutting his teeth in the WAFL last year against grown men. You can tell. He has slotted 7 majors from 2 games.

Will Phillips may turn out to be a very good player in a few years like you say. Logan McDonald is ready made.

Not trying to be a hindsight Harry here but North should have picked McDonald.

Great game of footy. Both teams so clean with their hands. 34 Williams for doggies just about the coolest head in the game at the moment. Got the dogs out of a few tight moments in the last quarter.

Only 1/4 time, but so far not seeing anything from GWS that will seriously challenge the Dees on Easter Sunday in Canberra.

Just looked at our run home.. horrendous to say the least

would be good if a few of those 7-12 teams were out of the running early.

GWS is one of them. Loss today and fingers crossed another loss next week would severely dent their chances.

Who are the others.... Hawks and Sydney come to mind. Freo perhaps along with Carlton

Yep, that is why we need to be 8-2 if we are serious this year. After Tigers we have an easy run

Bullies looked unbelievably good tonight didn’t they?! so clean when it really mattered. We’ve pretty much got the raw materials to compete with these teams i reckon but we feel wasteful and out of tune atm. Hoping we find our real flow and finish.

Swans have a dream fixture:  Teams they play twice: Suns, Giants, Ess, Freo and Saints.  Only the Saints made finals last year

Very hard to see the Swans not make finals this year and with that fixture they may even end up top 4..

Swans have been the surprise packet for sure. But I’d be surprised if they make finals. Suns, Giants, Saints, Freo are no easy beats. 
swans will be good in a couple of years but they have so many kids. Kennedy is 33 soon. They don’t have enough senior players imo. If not for their academy gifts they’d be in trouble

Get your money on the Demons next week now before the odds shift any further.  We should smash them.  they look disinterested, no tall forwards, defence horrible.  

T Mac to kick a bag next week!

Thanks. Put $20 on at $1.98 then thought wow, thats very good! So as i looked it went to $1.85 for the win. Still chucked the other $20 on it. I think a few others took your advice.

Giants will cop it in the media this week so next week will be a tough game 

Was just going to say the same thing. They will get a roasting during the week and turn up to our game with a point to prove.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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
