Jetta will be fine, Jones always worries me but hey no one’s knocking the door down to replace him

Jones still has talent in abundance; he is tough, he is a skilled footballer, his 'get into trouble/get out of trouble and circular evasion is very valuable, he is a good kick and passes the ball well. Reduced game time may be necessary but he is a Demon, through and through. His replacement is difficult to foresee, and in his sunset, we must develop another who can emulate his contributions.

viney is a key part of our midfield; the denigration of him on this site baffles me

Welcome back Mr.Viney.

Which is ridiculous.  The sub shouldn’t be credited with a game if they don’t come on. I guess it’s done for CBA match payment reasons but it’s genuinely stupid to say Chandler “played” last week

Collingwood displaying their multiple leads from their forwards is something we need to do as well. 

Our forwards need to present to the midfielders constantly - another numbers game/percentage play that needs to happen

Our problem, nailed and exposed.

In: Viney
Out: Harmes

Emerg: Baker, HIbberd, Melksham, Petty

I suspect King for the Saints might put on a good performance now he is back in the team. I'd like to see him manned by Petty who is  competitive and capable; this could release May to do some stuff in delivery across the game, gaining metres on working solely in the deep backline most of the time, particularly as we are not getting a great deal of mileage gained from Salem down back. 

Just a thought.... if we are horsing for coursing ...

we got very little from Salem last week 

never hurts the opposition at the moment short Dinky kicks etc the game  has changed Salem must go with it

Yes, he continues to underwhelm. Sad as he promised so much but has stagnated or gone backwards a bit.

Rubbish, you play your best side. 

And as your best side should comprise the players most suited to the conditions and best matched against opposition players in the game at hand, then guess what... horses for courses!

Lovely reply D11. Enjoy the rest of your day.

My point is that besides all the hype the Saints have done nothing just like us, so you go and play your game and see who comes out on top.  You don’t bring in lesser players just because they have a bit more toe, footy is not won by the fastest team

Now that wasn’t hard D11.

I agree St Kilda are being talked up.

I agree you always play your best team.

But my view is your best team might change depending on who you play and what the conditions are.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

    Some veteran Demonland Trackwatchers ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you the following observations from another Preseason Training Session. WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
