Bar the last ten minutes I think that’s the best we have played all year. Centre square clearances became an issue that needs to be addressed or we will struggle to hang on. Rivers has been terrific, I really hope dropped marks don’t cost us the game.

I think you’re being pretty generous suggesting that five dropped marks is a good thing.

Finals are won by ruthless teams who go at 100 for the whole game. 10-15 minutes of dropping off can and has cost teams finals and premierships. 
Gotta get better at choking up oppositions. 
But I acknowledge the Dogs are very good at Marvel and they are one of the few sides who can punish you severely in the space of minutes. 

Yep, that’s exactly it Jaded. Need to frustrate this half.

Good half . My Worst fear was being blown away early, my second worst is leading by 5 goals and letting it slip. Just have that feeling dogs have a lot of improvement in them and we can’t put sides away.

-talls dropping marks they should take 

- picket needs to stay low and and go hard at the ball he’s falling over too much 

- the umpiring grinds my gears

Both have been terrible calls, the last one in particular, Chamberlin is a xxxx.

Yes if call those you have to call the doggies wild shot at goal that went out of bounds surely that quarter. Yes he was going for goal but got it wrong just as we were looking for someone but got it wrong.

Wasn't that a great half from Rivers!  Common boys.  Max, LJ, Weid, Melk & Hunt really need to lift here to win this.  Cant carry that many on a downer against this mob

It’s all about voice, calling each other in and out.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
