Going to get a good old belting today. Just not top 2 or top 4 material for that matter. Yes defence is great but we are really poor in attacking. 
 

remember the Giants have many starting 22 injuries while we are just about full squad. 

Agreed not even close to top 4 at the moment and with a tough run home I think we are done, no doubt we finish 5th and cop a belting from the tigers

Disgusting performance. Viney has been very poor and absolutely no forward line thanks to the selectors.

Viney not up to it. But hes not alone.

If we dont work out our fwd line soon we will be lucky to be top four.

But its not like nobody has not been saying this which makes it so frustrating.

Statistically we're not doing too badly.

How we *look* is a different story. TMacs checkside kick from 50 out preceded three GWS goals. Our pressure is very poor. But we are defending okay.

Not out of reach. Unlikely, but not impossible. Let's back them in. Our Brisbane game looked ominous at half time.

What are we doing at training that results in this crap on game day?

Good call. Game over now.

Last week bombers weren't  good enough. Gws are class and we're a 5 to 8th team.  Selection forward strategy non existent. 

Its a pretty even comp as we all know there are no easy games and when your not on 100% you will be punished 

Hopefully second half is a very different story 

Reality bus is never far away

Lazy performance from our midfielders, and terrible non-Brown selection by the coaching panel has us in a situation where we just cannot score, regardless of how good our defensive running, structure and personnel are.

How about we put Max forward 80/20 and Jacko rucks 80/20.

Coz boy it ain’t working at the minute

This. Its not rocket science.

I’ve counted 6 free kicks directly from the Centre bounce to the Giants.

Max is preyed upon from the umpires. They actively look for the straight arm. 
mids need to pull finger out and take front position. Frees and clearances will then follow.

3 goals a half.    Good footy !!

Oh. DR.D, you're so negative. Pull your heads in you biased know it alls! The players are playing the way you think. We've lost to Adelaide, Collingwood and now GWS. Say Goodbye to top 4 officially.

Poor max he has tried to do everything, he's tacking, getting back in defence getting battered from pillar to post.  Someone help him. He can't do everything

I don’t understand those begging for Brown. He’d be getting nowhere near it, because we are continually losing the ball at the coal face. Even it up at the contest and then we can see what our forward line looks like.

Putrid first half. 
We have lost all our systems and confidence from earlier in the season. 
can be turned around, but why has it happened 

Huge Half time for Goodwin

Still cannot believe Sideshow is not playing

Harmes is not a smart player.

Yep, that is why his only spot is  a defensive midfielder.  Needs a run with role.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
