Too many passengers today. Max, Kozzie and Lever the only players on their game. We need more from Oliver, Trac, Viney and Tmac. Ground ball work is sub-par. Not locking the ball into our I50. Come on Spargs and Nibbler.

Jones looks like an old man today. Pains me to say it.

The coaches will earn their wages at half-time. the Hawks will re-group and come out firing again.

A nerve shredder coming up folks

On the plus side, we couldn't play any worse and are 2 points down.

The obvious negative being we couldn't play much worse...

Hibberd is playing well.

Keeps his spot no doubt next week. In Jetta, Out Petty.

Our forward pressure which has been a trait of ours this year is almost non-existent.

What a pack of whingers these Hawthorn supporters are. Every free kick to us is apparently a travesty.
We are holding up well and haven't allowed them to get off the chain. They have also done a great job in closing the game up. However, we need to get our act together on forward fifty entries. We need to find more run and dash heading in as the pinpoint, lead up game is allowing them to pick us off too easily.

Not really. The chop of the arms was there. they have paid the obvious ones to us. It’s the 50-50’s that are not being called for us

14 frees to 6 our way. Multiple goals from frees. Agree with those frees you're talking about but I dont think im that far wide of the mark.

We seem to have lost that mid to forward connection again! And set shot accuracy!!! 

Posted

We seem a bit rattled and the Hawks brought it today. A bit of composure, clean it up in the second half and keep at it, then we should pull away. Need to respond and not drop the heads

Replacing May with Petty is like replacing Godzilla with a cheeseburger....

technically it was Hibberd for May, and Fritsch for Petty.

but i see your point

2 F50 tackles. No longer doing what has made the difference lately 

Still time to tidy it up. Viney will come out firing after coping a low blow

Hopefully he can fire them up

Hawks are playing just as bad as us the only difference is our poor kicking

Lever is amazing and Max is great. Jones and Petty are shocking. Jackson needs to hold his marks. And it would really help they all could kick!

Spot on.

And if Melksham plays like this for another half Ill start writing angry letters to the club again.

I don’t care if it’s ugly. We just have to win from here. We’re killing ourselves with our skills which are WAY down.

Legitimate teams win games like this.

Just need to get it done.

So May and Fritta are big outs in case anyone was wondering.

A better quarter than the first at least. Backline just starting to get their [censored] together. Without much confidence I think we’ll get over the line but geeze if we play like this we’re in for a hiding next week.

Really happy with Hibbo’s game. The biggest positive so far.

    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.
