Yeah he's a reasonable forward. Had a decent few months of goal kicking at the end of last season, but he ain't no leader. When the chips are down, I never see him firing the troops up. In fact, when it's not coming easy, he shows complete disinterest. And that spreads through the team like a cancer. He's supposed to be the leader damnit. He's only inspiring when they're winning. Watching him on the sidelines today, there was no animation. Looking at the turf, scratching his leg. Where's the fire? Where's the passion? He's too passive, too quiet. Fire up damnit! You're the captain of the Mighty Melbourne Demons. Act like it.

Agree, I love all these blow ins who have probably jumped back on after 3 years.

"Greens soft" etc, etc.

Next they'll be blaming Woewodin and Schwarz for not firing up.

Yeah, I've noticed an unwavering support for Neitz on this blog. It's a curious thing. His captaincy has been as benign as ND's coaching. Don't get me wrong I like watching him play. I love watching him take a mark 20 metres out and take his kick from 50 out. He scores goals like any full forward worth his salt should do. But he's no fearless leader.

I'm locking this thread on grounds of stupidity and also because I cannot be bothered editing every second abusive reply, which will inevitably come after these comments.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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
