Second week in a row I feel dirty after a game and need a shower.

Yeah but this time it’s Essendon so the shower needs to be twice as long and the temperature just short of scalding. And we should  burn the clothes we’re wearing for good measure.

Now they are out of finals contention, I don't mind Essendon won today. It helped keep Brisbane off our tails.

Also makes Thursday night for annoying because we could have been 2 games clear of Brisbane to

A great result.  Excellent work Bombers.  That will help us though only if we don't drop the next couple of games.  Must win the ones we are expected to and at least break 50-50 in the rest.  4 out of 6 will see us top 4.

Not sure I'm so happy about the Lions losing as it is easier for Sydney to make top 4 as they have at least 4 very winnable games coming up.  Other than Geelong it is, on paper, the easiest run home.

I would rather play Lions in the QF than Sydney.

Our win against Brisbane has not aged well

Not a fan of having losses to no 1,3, 5 and 6 either

Agree that whilst is hasn’t aged well, our defensive intent that night would’ve beaten every club.

Any danger Collingwood can lose a game anytime soon? At this rate they’re going to make the grand final. They just simply find a way to win regardless of whether the opposition is excellent or poor.

I’ll be happy just to make the final 4 first Luci, give our form and our draw

Sort of why I never bought into us being 'back' 100%

West Coast have been pathetic so far

woeful. Almost quarter time and zero inside 50. 


edit: soz, that was their second inside 50. Barely though, blink and it’s back out again. Scoreless, too. 
There is a positive though: they have a player named Rhett Bazzo. That’s some name right there. 

You know a match is boring when you find amusement in players’ names. 😆

I'm very confident.  Lots and lots of 8-pt games among top 9 teams to come.  And quite a few of top 8 games with teams that want to make a mark. 

We have a game and large % on 5th.  The % is almost worth another game.  Short of the wheels falling off and we win our fair share we are top 4.

Still a good chance for top 2, I reckon...

I know I’m supposed to be barracking for Essendon but I can’t. I tried but I just cannot do it. How would I sleep at night?

Warm in the belief that the Dons have given us a better chance of securing a better ladder position WCW. 

Now put ur Electric Blanket on, reread our Premiership Literature, AND....... Dont forget the nightcap WCW!!😇

Still sticking with the "It's all rigged" narrative then, Clint?

Not rigged, but at least an element of manipulation

Great player Josh Kennedy

Have always admired and respected him. Love the way he goes about his footy. Ever humble and a perfect role-model for kids (and adults as well).

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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. 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
