St Kilda reek of Melbourne 2019.

Pre season injuries, lack of hunger, bath water etc...

Probably preseason injuries... 

Not a crack at you @Bring-Back-Powell, and jeeze I hate 'bathwater' as a catch-all phrase for, getting a head of yourself.

No team... ever drinks their own bathwater... you don't think all coaches drill in to the players that they haven't achieved anything until they've won a premiership... (or the players don't understand this through all their coaching and know it innately?)

Their gameplan has been torn to shreds... and they're quite a limited team...as evidenced by losing to us last year...

I'd prefer them to have a long slow painful death.

While i like what the 'stand' rule has brought to the game between the arcs, the AFL really needs to fix it's application to the set shots for goal.

There is sometimes strict interpretation and at other times none in terms of stepping off the line of the mark while taking a shot.

Some players are getting called immediately taking a step or two as they arc out of their line, while others appear invisible to the umpire and are alowed to arc out and waltz towards the side of the man standing the mark without any adjudication.  With the latter (non-governance) gaining an extra 5 meters or more, sometimes the difference between a goal and falling a little short.

A fundamental but obvious umpiring flaw that needs to be addressed and quickly.  Could be the difference in a tight game.

@Rusty Nails, dont you get it mate ? - ambiguity is great for the game. It's great for debate, it frustrates people endlessly.

Silence = apathy = death.

33 points up and Eagles decided to go to Tullamarine. Haven’t seen them stop like this in a while.

West Coast are just down hill skiers. Apply the pressure and they wilt

Great response from the Saints after the Essendon horror show

OK.   What the hell was in the saints bath water then?

A win like this could reinvigorate their season. Very disappointing. 

Anyone that embarrasses WC like that is alright in my book

Applying some Demonland logic here but if we beat the saints easily, the saints then beat West Coast doesn’t that mean….......we’ve gone past West Coast ?

Better to have both on 2-2. Win tomorrow and we will be 2 games clear of both.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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.
