hey everyone

I am hanging for Monday, and I am thankful that the AFL have scheduled us to play the lowly Hawks at the MCG

If we win by less than 70 I will be surprised

All these key players were woeful in round 1

Bruce

TJ

Yze

Green

Bate

Miller

Jamar

Davey

That is 8 guys that would be raring to go and atone for their pathetic effort last week

I am calling this a big win to the Demons. I feel sorry for the Hawks backmen already. Neitz and Robbo will kick 12 between them. Geez I hoe Zac Dawson plays

Melbourne - 22.13.145

Hawthorn - 10.11.71

Goals - Neitz 7, Robertson 5, Davey 3, Bruce, Green 2, Miller, Jones, White

Best - Bruce, Miller, Johnstone, Neitz, Robertson, Carroll, Jones

GO DEMONS!!!!

Laughable..

Just who exactly is going to stop the Buddy Magic from happening?

Franklin is an overrated goose

He kicked 4 goals on MATTHEW WARNOCK in a PRACTICE MATCH and Hawks supporters creamed themselves

His marking ability for someone of his size is embarrassing

Rivers or Carroll will annihilate him.. Easily

It was actually Nathan Carroll for the bulk of it. Watch the replay...

Hawks by 30 on the back of Franklin's 6..

110 % agree :) :)

Carroll please take out Franklin

For me the dees win by between 70 to 100 pts

Neitz will kick 9 to 10 goals

Perhaps if you watch the replay you'll note that when Franklin kicked his goals, he was on Warnock...

I'm not quite as optimistic as YM however.

Correct

And in fact three of Franklins goals were a direct result of Melbourne defensive errors (not Carrolls'). I know that doesn't help the cause in arguing a Melbourne victory but lets not give Franklin too much credit. He would need a couple of Melbourne players to go down injured during the course of the game to kick 6.

If Melbourne got any sort of meaningful contribution from these 3, that would be a bonus.

As for Franklin, the guy can play. If he actaully was able to mark above his head, he would be in the elite of the AFL. As it is now, he is just a very good player who can be very dangerous on his day.

Melbourne to win by 36 points.

This might sound odd but as long as we play a better brand of footy i'm happy. If we play an aggresive, attacking, running game and get it to our forwards quick, and lose, i'll cop it sweet.

If we chip it around and lose i'll give up.

    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.

    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
