Honourable mentions;

Adam Tomlinson

Jake Melksham

James Harmes

Luke Jackson

Alex Neal-Bullen

Charlie Spargo

Ben Brown

Bayley Fritsch

Adjudication;

No real complaints. Charlie Dixon gets J C Williamson award for 'milking' a 50 metre penalty goal. "Hard" man with "soft" hands.

Broadcast;

Pleased to hear BT's repeated references to the 'Big Tree'  it is well on the way to being adopted as part of the AFL dreaming. Thank Jove the live ladder was dropped for the last quarter and FOX footy's  Kelly Underwood being 'anchored' in the South Yarra studio.

Opposition hyperbole watch;

Powell-Pepper sprayed the goal front like an old tom. Desperately needs the Kossie implant.

Overall comment;

Port have improved significantly since earlier in the season. Almost a full compliment of players many in good form. Provided a seriously competitive match. Hopefully our boys will be battle hardened by September. Moggies meanwhile are aging and getting it soft.

I'm staggered that everyone is rating Trac so high. Sometimes that clanger stat can be misleading, but not in this case. He had 10 and the rest of the team combined for 14. 

 

Think our expectations for Tracc are pretty high.

If Harmes, Sparrow, etc. got 30 possies with 17 contested, four centre clearances, nine score involvements, three goal assists and nearly 600 metres gained no one would hesitate giving them votes.

The clanger stat is always high for inside mids. The nature of having to get ball on boot in a hurry. With that said he still went at 83 percent disposal efficiency.

Apologies to Tomlinson.

Trac was BOG after Koz. 10 clearances, 3 assists. 17 contested. We don’t win without Trac today

…and yet you give Viney 5 votes? He was awful by foot today. Even by his standards.

If you think CP’s game was overrated fair enough but not a single vote? He had 17 contested possessions. 10 clearances to Viney’s 3. 9 score involvements. He topped Viney in basically every stat.

6 - Kozzie- exceptional game

5 - Tracc - a game winner at work

4 - Langdon - provided the out

3 - Jack - worked so hard under pressure 

2 - May - kept us in it early

1 - BBB - really got involved today

the 2 / 1 vote could have gone to Hibbo, Salem, Harmes, Sparrow, JJ or Thommo.

I'll confess that I have high standards of Trac, but there is something seriously wrong with his kicking. Included in your stat line of 9 score involvements and 83% disposal efficiency was a shank in the 2 qtr that barely went 25 metres but still ended up in a 2 on 1 our way, but only a point resulted. 

Offhand, Trac seemed to get a lot of possessions in the last qtr once the game was sealed.

Where did you see that clanger stat?

The AFL's website says that he had 4 clangers, not 10.

He led us for metres gained, was second only to Fritsch for score involvements, and was our leader for goal assists. He also had our fourth most pressure acts, meaning he added defence to that attack.

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p

    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
