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.

    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. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    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.
