Question.

Were Oliver and Trac cojoined twins at some stage. They have a great symbiotic relationship.

Don't have Kayo so am enjoying myself following this on the North bigfooty game day thread. It's very satisfying having our team talked about like this.

A couple of times we’ve been caught out going forward with turnovers because have they been pushing back hard defensively and we are getting outnumbered .

Melbourne's defence is hard to beat.

they've split us open now

Good reality check. Stops the uncalibrated preseason chugging off.

Not a bad quarter of football but we saw about 5 minutes of play from the Dees that shows the difference between the Premiers and Wooden Spooners. They are a class above and we saw it late in that quarter.

They move the ball quickly we were not able too

Melbourne too strong and too good for us to play silly.

Melbourne read the ball ahead of what we are doing as much as its about poor execution.

We stagnate we should be playing on quickly but Melbourne don’t allow it

Melb numbers behind the ball and numbers in front of the ball....

We are winning out fair share of contests but the Melbourne backline is picking off everything.

Melbourne with ascendency across the ground. Running with numbers, more numbers around the contest, cleaner with the footy.

Melbourne are very good at smothering kicks in close

How long till Round 1, 2023?

They are just out working us on the spread offensively and working back a lot harder defensively. There are a lot of lessons today let’s hope we learn from them .

We're getting crushed by melbs stronger mids.

There are a lot of skill errors, but most of those would be because of the pressure being applied by the defending premiers.

We just hemorrhaged 8 goals in a row and as soon as the pressure came we played like under 10s

Their last two games were an absolute dismantling of Geelong, and then kicking 46 goals in a row to smash the Dogs and win a flag.

Melbourne are really good

At the ground, effort is ok skills & structure the glaring difference. 
Seems an odd set up with the personnel we have on the field, allowing them huge outnumber behind the ball playing into their hands. likewise around the contest their positioning is much effective, better spacing allowing clearer outlets despite what looks like an extra there for us.

It's still hard to believe what I am reading!

Only a practice game but how good are Melbourne how bad are North or is it both.

probably both. North haven't really fired a shot since 10 minutes into the first quarter...

    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

    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

    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
