It seems an absolute eternity since bang bang bang.  
Come on Dees - make a statement.  
PS buy a strong marking forward, somehow, over the trade period.  It is THE difference between garbage and success. BBB is stuffed.

He’s having a great game but he’s missed three sitters still which might be costly. Were they not sitters? We must be watching different games 

I'd hardly call all 3 of them sitters. 1 of the 3 perhaps. 2 at a massive stretch of the definition of a sitter.

We just need to limp across the line. This has been really, really hard. Blues are up and about as they should be, finals at stake, Paddy wants to be there. If we do not bring it this quarter we can forget about anything in September.

I am dead serious, another game we have led at every change. If we drop this then we clearly have a mental issue at play. We need to get over the line, the world of good that will do mentally.

You can see it coming a mile away. We will get overrun.

Forward line ... not quite happening, chemistry just not there. Playing as a group of (talented) individuals rather than a team. Odd, as they've had plenty of time together.

Missing Tom Macdonald to help get the system working again?

Can we try Petty up fwd?

With Disco in  defence. 
Ir debut JVR next week.  Anything else is worth a try. 
This is not working. 
Just cannot have Melksham and Frittata as our only forwards.

I can see Spargs or ANB getting the bullet for someone, may as well be another borderline player with no awareness or game sense 

Try up forward was the suggestion, not many other options and the current set up is going nowhere

Sparrow was dead set all by himself on the 50 in the corridor. FMD this kick in play is just infuriating. If you can my hit that kick with no pressure, what the f are you playing afl for. 

Correct.

And our last F50 entry we turned over as usual, we had a guy on his own screaming for it 30 out and ignored.

We must reverse this narrative CYB. No other option.

Where was Langdon most of that quarter?

Not really the same since his injury I feel.

Just a limping shadow of last year. Carlton without Kennedy, Cerra and Hewett should mean this game goes one way. And yet they’re making us look slow, uncertain, fumbly and secondary at contests. Their plan for this quarter will be pressure, turnover, forward at speed. Ours will be the predictable usual, allowing them to set up that manic contest again. Like last week, we won’t get  it done that way.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
