Petty was actually pretty good. 
 

Brayshaw’s kicking is consistently letting us down no matter how good his intercept game is.

Gus can be very casual with some of his kicks. Especially when he’s on his left.

Watching the game today, I said to my wife Petty will be a superstar for our club. He will never really be recognised as such outside the club I suspect, but he will be a 250 gamer for the Dee's.

Couldn't agree more. Probably on 180k if he's lucky and does more than a serviceable job.

We’ve all called it. Petty was good all night. The number of contests he impacted didn’t get on the stats.  He must have had 7-8 spoils in crucial contests.  And his marking is one grab.  Three words for Petty “Another solid contribution”.

Agree about Petty. He is an absolute gun.

I thought Ben Brown was terrible. His first goal was a gift ... the result of a dropped (uncontested) mark by a Crows defender (Murray). His only other goal was in junk time. His inability to impact on contests is a problem ... he either fails to get to the contest, or 'attacks' the ball meekly with one hand. He was great last year, but his form this year is worrying. 

Weid did what Weid does. Shame he can't 'clunk' marks. 

M. Brown was passable. He did better than his namesake. 

Hibbo ... mixed bag. Did some good things, but got outmarked twice which cost 2 goals. Overall an OK game.

Bedford ... until he kicked his goal ... didn't know he was playing!!

Kozzy ... rarely sighted.

That's just not true, his kicking has been excellent this season and a real improvement in his game. Did have some misses yesterday but on the whole very good.

I think sometimes you need to look past your confirmation bias of past seasons.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
