[censored] Gary Lyon ay? Tell him to shut the [censored] up. Decide if you are part of the club or not.

If you want to be then don't sink the [censored] boots in at every [censored] opportunity 

He’s a commentator mate. Needs to be at least a bit impartial. Watch him at the GF and see if he is part of the club. 

how about a bit of respect for a club champion???

He’s not being impartial he’s been overly negative. It’s unprofessional.

The biggest things we need to take out of this game is that the umpires will not tolerate "who do I give the ball to" BS. 

We were the masters of that last year, and I'm not sad to see it go.

It’s a good rule change. It will be applied too strictly in Round 1, but the answer isn’t to whinge about it but to adapt to it.

Their bigger midfield has bullied us tonight.

-62 disposals, - 3 CPs, -14 clearances, -8 tackles. 

Pre-season or not, we won’t be winning many games of football this year with those figures.

I reckon this game is teaching us all a few things.

…..

And fourth, tonight is a more real game than last week (too many read too much into a genuine scratch match) but it’s also not a real game. Remember,  we got belted by the Dogs in this game last year.

…. and did we play them again late in the year??🤔🤔

They look quicker too. We have been chasing them so much. They look a bit rattled too. Need to slow their momentum down and get our forward pressure game up and going.

Dropping marks, fumbling, I’ll discipline and not switched on. 
 

Good thing it’s a practice game but if we come out in the 1st round like this it will be good night Charlie. 
 

A few things to work on prior to rd1.

I feel like the umps are umpiring Melbourne per 2022 rules but not the Blues. Saad should have been holding the ball if Petracca was.

I wonder how hard they were flogged during the week? 5/6 premiership backmen make us a completely different side.

 

im looking forward to seeing us live in Round 1 😉

I was at the grand final and the post match. He was clearly a demon man who loved the club. 

Can't stand him commenting Melbourne games. Constantly negative. I'm enjoying the game apart from him implying that we are getting ahead of ourselves. 

He has been like it for years. His attempts to be impartial is the problem. He needs to be taken off Demon games.

With all the talk about our boys feeling for the members back east missing out on the premiership party, I have no concerns that the boys won’t show up for the unfurling of the flag in round 1.

We’ll be mentally switched on in 2 weeks time. Let the baggers get excited over a win in March.

Bowie's clinical disposal has deserted him early this year I think.

But the Blues are taking this game so seriously, so no wonder they're winning. They're a bunch of professional footballers - they should win a match they're taking seriously against a team out there because it's in their contracts and not much more.

High tackle apparently.

Petracca came in and got him high. Was there when shown on replay.

High on Petracca who came in second.

Lazy sloppy performance, players laughing during the game, only a practice match but pretty unprofessional I think.

    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

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
