    They really phoned that one in didn't they? 

    • Where are the dees at? Haven't made my mind up
    • Gawn, Grundy how is that going to work. Don't know.
    • Forward line could be an issue. Might be fine. Dees fans excited about JVR.
    • Off field issues last year. i'm sure they have been sorted
    • Straight sets losses last year in finals. Will that leave scars? Probably not.

    It is low effort content, but there's a very simple part of my brain that releases dopamine's when I listen to or read MFC related news, regardless of quality! 🤪

    But our forward line could be a major problem again this year.  McDonald has been poor since the middle of 2021.  Brown appears at the end and ANB and Spargo can't score.

    Great article. As is another (by the same journo) linked with that one titled, “Brothers in arms: will the Gawn and Grundy experiment work?” In particular, this…

    Definitely agree that in the second half of last year we played not to lose instead of daring to win. We need to get back to being ruthless.

    Barrett was commentating and standing next to Cornes who was wearing a Dees scarf after the 2021 GF. Cornes put one over Barrett who angrly pulled it off and tossed it on the ground.

    I wouldnt take much notice of him.

    Thanks for sharing. 
     

    I’m surprised fitness was summarily dismissed by Richardson. For me, we just couldn’t physical run out games in the later half of the season including the finals.

    as he says, kpis measured against other clubs don't support that

    this sort of article is great for the non-demonland user or non-mfc fan as it says a lot of the things being said on here last year throughout the season

    Interesting that Richardson said that van Rooyen was unlikely to debut in the round 1.

      The Demons hit the road for their last practice hit out before the start of the 2026 AFL Premiership season when they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

      A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers were blessed with some beautiful Wednesday morning weather to give their observations of one of the final open training session at Gosch's Paddock prior to our first practice hit out against another team this weekend.
