You know those nightmare films where the protagonist is awful because of some curse and everyone is trying to kill them and then they take off some totem and all is good again?

That is how I feel about Cam Guthrie’s hair. I was all ready to resume my hate of the bloke and I just can’t get it up.

Shame.

The grass looks shocking. Let’s hope we don’t see a Melbourne player do a knee tomorrow

It is a real worry. De Koning went down just slowly walking backwards with no one near him.

The surface is very shifty in places and be Sue Chris Scott will tell us all about in his presser. Concerts and sport are not good bedfellows.

Why do they insist on calling it an underground handball? 

Sounds like some kind of deep thought process from BT

He’s not playing anywhere near as much inside footy as he did earlier in his career, so he still has a couple years left in him yet

Was just thinking that.

He looks as fit and strong as he has in years.

And he still has sublime skills, and gets value with almost all his possessions. 

So much time.

I know it’s entertaining to watch, but would it kill either of these teams to play defence or switch tempo?

Allowing a team to kick almost 75 points to half time doesn’t seem sustainable.

Exactly. A team that has solid structures with players that know and stick to their roles will shut this down.

Howe’s in so much pain. Despite what we might think of him, that’s terrible to see.

Absolutely. Anyone screaming in pain on the ground is shocking. It’s a game and someone just suffered a horrific injury. You just don’t wish that on anyone.

True, sorry, I just cant stand him.

Neither can I. But I know for a fact that he’s a really lovely guy off the field. A family friend who is a mad Geelong fan got the Geelong players to visit his 5 year son in hospital when he was battling cancer. Hawkins has since personally reached out to him multiple times to check on the kid. 
He might be an [censored] on the field, but these guys are still human beings and most of them are completely different off the field.

    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
