A fascinating sub-plot tonight for me is how Pickett, Jackson and Rivers perform on the big stage in a big occassion game against the best opposition... 

Go boys, reputations are built on nights like tonight.

Kozzy has seemed to really love playing in front of crowds these early rounds after last year's situation. I reckon we might be in for a treat tonight.

For a quiet young fella he is a real showman on game day.

Built for big games on the g.

How brilliant is it to have a player as exciting as kozzie in the team.

Confidence has grown throughout the day. I was more worried about our previous games against what were considered lesser opposition, games we were "expected" to win. This game is a free hit in effect. Expectations are lower.

What an incredible story by Curtis McGrath.

A true inspiration and perfect reflection of the Spirit of the Anzacs.

The 1985 season was Matthews' last as a player. During a wild game vs Geelong which was marred by numerous brawls and reports, Matthews struck Geelong player Neville Bruns in an off-the-ball incident, breaking his opponent's jaw. Geelong's Steve Hocking exacted swift retribution, breaking Matthews' nose and an all-in melee ensued. No report was laid by umpires against Matthews. However, the 'behind play' incident had been captured on camera. After much public outcry, the VFL launched an investigation and subsequently deregistered Matthews for four weeks. He was also charged with assault and fined $1,000.[9] His conviction was later overturned on appeal. The charge remains the only time a top-level player has been charged for an on-field incident.

    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.
