May playing his worst ever game.  Defence looking shaky

Trying to break tackles

Too little talking

Stengle playing v well

Bedford outmanoeuvred twice

Salem missing targets

What's with our players getting tackled but disposing of the ball but getting pinged??

Pressure is huge. Cats are primed

Only 2 pts down. We can wear them down.

Viney, Harmes and May were all culprits that quarter is costing us goals and genuine turnovers.

So disappointing that these are supposed leaders who are letting us down.

Wouldn’t mind seeing Sparrow tried down back in future. Brings pressure, has pace, could play more lockdown potentially. We need his type down back IMO.

This is how Geelong have such a good home ground advantage. We seem so confused with the lack of space on wings. Everything is compressed and we can't play our regular game style.

Not really look at up the ground footage after a kick in you 1 or 2 cats players all by themselves in our forward line, and why do our forwards always start from behind?

Playing a switched on Cats on a narrow ground, take the first option to dispose of the ball please. Trying to break tackles and baulking the first tackler looking for a target is costing us.

Trying to play the Cats own precise  possession game instead of going long & direct once in the clear is costing us big time.

Once in the clear off HB and pressure closing, back your players up the field and go long.  The extra handball or short kick to another player under pressure is killing any momentum and also our forwards chances of winning any one on ones.

BB solid first quarter and much more involved.  Takes two contesteds on the wing, then goes back to assess but takes way too long.  Cats all flooded back.  Opportunity lost.  Move it on quickly inside 50 with a low raking kick towards a Maxy or Dogga and let the smalls go to work.

    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.

    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.
