Cheating [censored] [censored] in yellow absolutely garbage.

Multiple gifts from free kicks in Collingwood I50 from ridiculous calls.

All over the ground just inconsistent decisions.

[censored] that [censored].

They definitely got all the 50/50 calls in the last but it's the FORWARD LINE folks.

Is Joel Smith the saviour?

Furious, absolutely furious with that loss. We have too much class to be kicking and handballing like that. 

Atrocious games from Kozzie, ANB, Spargo, Hibberd, and Jackson. Kozzie in particular fumbled, ran over the ball, flew when he should have stayed down and played an all round shocker. 

The old Dees habit of handballing under pressure to a team mate who is under more pressure. That one from Hibberd to Viney in the Pies forward line - unforgiveable. It happened all night.

We canNOT keep kicking our forward 50 entries into the pocket. EVERY time, even when we have short options. 

My rage hasn't settled yet. Really grumpy right now.

One trick pony got the job done.

We knew exactly what they’d try to do and we let them do it. We’re a defensive team who can’t win a shootout, yet we let the game unfold that way anyway.

This was a supremely disappointing effort from the coaching group. They’ve got work to do now as top two is likely gone. 

[censored] what a let down.

Petracca picks and chooses when he wants to show up, 2nd worse game I've seen him play behind the Freo loss. Gawn terrible, ANB an absolute momentum killer, Koz anonymous, the entire back seven were terrible tonight. Definitely not going back to back this year.

If we could fix our forward half game we’d be unstoppable!

Just so much wasted effort for such a poor return.

Don't blame the umpires.  We didn't take our chances and they did and we were outplayed.  

Losing to this mob is always the bitterest pill to swallow.  Goodnight all.

Thought their man Darcy fill back won his position easily and he was the difference in the end

Shame on coaches.  They can’t and have not learnt after weeks of seeing pies how to close them down.  Our mob can’t kick straight to save themselves.

A fit Joel Smith would have been very handy over Hibberd tonight. And I suspect he's (Smith) moving on at year's end. That's a gap to fill.

That was the most painful loss I can remember in a long time.

Take a bow Simon Goodwin. Pandering to Luke  Jackson by playing him as first ruck. He is not a first ruck and Max is not  a forward. Cost us 3 easy goals tonight and the game.

If Max kicks straight we win and he's probably BOG

Should have been six in front at half time

Hard for Demons to get a free second half

Pies probably got 6 or 7 goals from frees

the last to Johnson unbelievably soft

Cox is a dog

Their supporters are the worst 

Kozzy, why did you have to kill the momentum?

What happened to our mid field in the 2nd half?

We are missing Tom Mac. Equally, it's the way that the ball is coming in.

Watching Ben Brown, it was nice to reminisce and think of Iron Hands Dawes.

We have so many problems going forward at the moment. We really should give JVR a go. We're not going to win a flag at the moment unless we change our forward structure and our crappy F50 kick into the pocket entries.

It was the Dogs game all over again.

I chucked money on the pies at half time at $5.40. it feels very ordinary collecting.

Would love to know where our contest and defence were tonight, coz they weren’t at the G.

Meanwhile Goody is on the bench wondering why our broken system isn’t working. Do something about it.

    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.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
