Yep and it would be weekend after weekend of disappointment.

Thank [censored] those days are gone and gone for good!

Yes it's hard to see our team falling away with all the young talent we have on the list (and experienced talent of course)

The template is there now and we just need those within the club to remain hungry (ravenous) whilst endeavouring to stay ahead of the game making smart moves

Our best beats both of the teams tonight but we were not always at our best in the 2nd half of last year

Recruit well and keep extending the window

Three Brownlow votes for Cripps tonight, didn't do anything but thats never stopped the Umps before.

I always turn the sound off when Nathan Brown (🐅 broken leg version) starts up about “the odds”!  
Did he quite a “3 Downlow votes for tonight odds market?

Doesn't deserve a thread of it's own, but I'm watching the post game press conference and I can't help but ask:

Any chance in 2023 we can get some room microphones to be able to actually hear the journalists questions?

So the Blues, with 3 talls, struggled all night to keep the ball in their F50. Gives us a taste of Sat night. As long as the Doggies talls arnt  clunking it, they’ll struggle to keep it in their  forward half.

What a surprising statement from Voss

I would be furious 

Their supporters would not be happy with that statement. Very David Teague. 

If they were to miss finals again on the back of a few more chokes like that the knives will be out.

Never mind Vossy’s statement, I’m furious about that typo. The word “chargers” should be “charges” 😁

Hope so. I vividly remember Carlton between 1970-95

Wow. Very exciting end to a very meh game. 

I watched it on Kayo which had the 4 wise monkeys as quarter and half time commentators, Buckley's gem for the night was; "they need to put the gas to the peddle". Truly BT worthy, the other 3 just kept going like nothing had happened. No wonder he confused the Collingwood players.

Honestly I had the tigers making the 8 and they might, Carlton for me finish 9-10 depending on port. What a [censored] show last night was. People can argue it’s only rd 1, but for Carlton who we’ve been told “are coming” since 2009 that was garbage. For me the only highlights of the game were the  Bolton mark, 2 goals from Lynch (one from the pocket and one to level it) and the Curnow goal from the pocket. I’m going to find out what they paid for hopper because GWS would be laughing. Taranto gets a lot of it but can’t kick. Based on that only a 4/5 teams are in the hunt this year. Jack and Dusty are past it. Dynasty well and truly over. Teams want to get of to a good start, there will be games this week when a team will lose but they would have played a brand of footy where people will say “they’re going to be hard to beat this season”. You’d be [censored] if your club loses to either of those two teams last night. The game must now go to someone else, if not last years GF, then the 2 teams that lost the preliminary, so last night would be Pies v Lions.

Another example why 19 teams won’t work.

Yeah beautiful wasnt it

A few takes

1 Crypts Loved by umps

2 Saad one way runner and NEVER picks up a man the other way and as for Jack Martin... what a dud

3 Shai Boltin should be dropped on that pathetic shot on goal

4 Both teams very avg but Rich very unlucky to lose

1.5M a year between 'em. Amazing. Throw in McGovern and you have the price of a bedsitter in the back streets of Bondi Beach.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
