The Cats have brought mostly man v man pressure with a slight drop away from that in the second quarter.

The Swans have completely crumbled under that pressure.

When we played them (twice), we brought our usual 2/3 rds rolling zone giving them too much time and space, making them look a million $$.

Hopefullly Goody & the FD will recognise this and change things up a fair degree in 2023.

If they don't and continue to drag out the loose rolling zone at the start of 2023 i'll be super worried about our chances.

I can’t believe that any of the Swans players haven’t crunched in and try to make it slow and physical. Make it hard for them. Instead they’ve just rolled over.

I reckon our boys would be a bit embarrassed today. May, Viney and Oliver wouldn’t have just accepted this.

They would be hurting, a team they demolished 12 months earlier now taking the [censored] against a bunch of misfits.

In fairness to the Bulldogs last year they fought for 3 quarters but got rolled by the most demoralising and blistering 5 minutes of football I think I’ve ever seen, and it broke them.

Contrasted to the Swans who have never been in this. Not for a minute.

FMD!! I just came in from raking leaves ..... I'm going back to it.

Tonight I will drink booze while avoiding Fox and FTA.  There's a couple of decent Korean shows on Netflix while boozing.

Uncle Bitter is signing off ...... before I vomit.

Someone could put a gun to my head and still I won’t watch Dangerfield get a premiership medal. 🤮 

Might get a Normie yet. He was dead slow last year. He and Selwood are flying.

Gotta wonder about fitness and player management.

Not sure how our midfield got handled by this Swans outfit.

Hate the Cats, but credit to them. Amidst all the jokes about the 'retirement village' they walked the walk while the other teams that might have challenged them talked the talk.

This is a pretty poor advertisement for the game in general. Two 12+ goal grand finals in a row. If the Swans are the second best team that could be served up it's a worry.

Glad this wasn’t us. Cats would’ve done this to anyone today. Too good.

You reckon they'll get a similar draw they got this year, next year?

LOL, you know a GF is mind-numbingly boring when you started talking music.

Bledisloe and Rabbitohs playing tonight.

Thoroughly recommend Train to Busan on SBS. Just an awesome zombie movie.

I feel like I'm watching one now and the Zombies are winning!

We need to milk multiple flags out of our current team. I'm [censored] over teams like Geelong nabbing a quarter of the flags contested over the last 16 seasons.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    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’

    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
