Trac has been good in close. Two poor shots on goal and a bad entry undid all his good work but his work inside a big reason why we are so far ahead.

Trac quiet in 1st. Better in second and very dangerous. Discovered he has some pace and burst.  Needs Goalkicking practice.  #GiveEmHell

5 goals up at half time.
Gotta be happy with that.

Still, this game would be over if we kicked straight that qr.
One sacrificial goat not enough for finals obviously.
2 next game.

Happier if Petracca’s DE% was closer to 80 than 50, we would be 2 goals further ahead! For a guy with his talent I find some of his disposals puzzling. Those 2 running shots at goal should be absolute gimmes.

The more I see the tg incident the worse it looks. Sounded guilty in his interview when asked about it..." caught up in the moment"

 

Good luck tg ...youll need it .

At first I thought a fine but now...Two weeks I reckon.

Agreed. Greene was the definition of aggressive. His response in the interview was hardly convincing.

Riewoldt and Jono Brown trying to justify Toby Greene's bump on the umpire. Seriously give me a break, no room for that crap in the game. Multiple weeks for me.

Perhaps the old “Jack Viney, bad look for the game” suspension?

That’s a very very risky comment, tempting fate. They get some momentum, and things can change. Hopefully not…

We're a better team than them. If we maintain our focus in the second half, we win.

And we have clayton oliver and they don't

Its a fair call

One of the best quarters we've played all year, shame about the lack of accuracy in front of goal. That half is done though, gotta play this second half like the score is 0-0 and maintain the intensity of the second quarter.

Can’t let the Lions mids win quick clearances too start the quarter. Keep the pressure on boys!

Joe Daniher has awesome taste in music. And that’s where his good points list ends.

Great first half keep it up boys.!!

Many of the Lions players are down on output.

The time the Lions looked best was when they are forcing and surging the ball forward.  That takes plenty of energy, and they aren't getting easy ball movement. Our fitness will set us well.

They are playing a game we are forcing them into, which suits our style.

Sparrow doing plenty of link work.

Oliver, wow, disposal are impacting big time.

River a bit nervous.

We are marking everywhere. 

Forwards working well.

Great pressure footy, made it too hard for them.

Expect them to come out with changes to style and with fire.

Go Dees!

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie
