Gawn - useless against mediocrity 

Petracca - tried but ineffective 

Oliver - season worst game

Viney - had no influence 

Neal-Bullen - nothing after first

Harmes - mediocre at best

Brayshaw - gave little drive

Petty - season worst game

Salem - lost all composure 

Hunt - not required standard 

Jackson - counted his money

Langdon - disposal was amateurish 

May - not his fault

Lever - poor under pressure 

Brown - an embarrassing performance 

Pickett - important but undisciplined 

Melksham - another inept display 

Sparrow - was he playing?

Fritsch - unsighted second half 

Hibberd - age has wearied

Oliver/Brayshaw/Viney/ANB/Petracca/Gawn - Brave

Petty & May : Damage done on way down but Brave

Lever : Truth is a defence in a Libel suit.

Sparrow/Rivers : work on skills

Salem : NQR (Physically)

Spargo /Kossie: increase involvement

Hibberd/Melsham : Buy a watch (Their time has come)

Jackson : not our worry it seems

Brown : needs another forward

I love the joeboy 3 words every week, so I won't criticise, I'll just give an alternative and completely fail at the three word part:

Gawn - hampered, tried, taps still sucked

Petracca - hampered, still a gun, moments of brilliance

Oliver - tagged out of it, dug the terminator eye

Viney - as joeboy said, had no influence

Neal-Bullen - good first quarter, then standard nibbler

Harmes - good overhead, but in the wrong place too often

Brayshaw - one of the few contested winners for the night

Petty - my man, superhero effort

Salem - why can't he kick anymore?

Hunt - missing too often, not a great defender, not enough drive

Jackson - love him, but was wearing Chris Dawes gloves tonight (I also love Chris Dawes)

Langdon - tried, honestly was decent

May - just a gun, spent all day angry at his teammates though, wasn't the defence's fault, guy needs to chill

Lever - 50/50 game

Brown - yeah, that was pretty bad

Pickett - love him, one of the few highlights for us, constantly dangerous

Melksham - garbage

Sparrow - just horrendous

Fritsch - gave no pressure, reliable set-shot, unwilling to put his body on the line, disappointing overall

Hibberd - was ok, couldn't expect miracles with the rest of the mess

Rivers - messed up pretty much every opportunity, but he'll be better next year

Spargo - too slow, can't kick 30m, not enough pressure, missed opportunities

team overall - not enough pressure, too conservative, hella banged up

coaching - what the hell is our attacking structure? We're so conservative that we're unable to score, reliant entirely on moments of brilliance from Kossy, Oliver or Petracca. Way too focused on not being scored against that we're completely unable to move it forward. Horrible to watch all year, even when we were winning. Sort it out. Lots to work on over summer.

Don’t use tht phrase. Annoys me no end. What on earth makes winning the premiership last year any different, other.than the disappointment of diehard fans not being able to attend? Finals played in front of crowds. Full length games. I really hate this notion that last year was some sort of undeserved premiership.

It was 1000% deserved but it plain sucks that they won a flag when we couldn’t see it. 

And then a year later we get dished up a woeful finals series at our home.

Yeah I agree, was using it in jest, but also to highlight the rubbish that gawn and co continually spewed earlier in the year about the drive to win it in front of the fans.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
