I was at the ground but a long way from the Richmond end.   So only saw close half the action.

both Grundy and Oliver got better as the day went on.

So 6 Grundy

5 Oliver

I thought Lever was very good Rivers, Bowey, McVee  and Pig  all composed

4 Lever

3 Chandler had a great day

2 Fritz  got better

1  Van Rooyen      took marks like the Ox did when he started   fantastic

Apologies

Rivers, McVee, Hibbo, Spargo, AnB, Tracca, Hunter, Langdon Sparrow, Bowey and others

I thought that Oliver's third quarter, when the game was on the line, was something special. 

6 Oliver

3 Hunter

2 Rivers

1 May

 

yep thats what I was looking for. 10 min to go 3rd quarter Sydney was coming and we couldn't stop it (and they kicked points). Who stood up ? Oliver and with great defensive efforts all day. most tackles with 7 as well (interestingly JVR next with 6).

Petracca good but very sloppy, tried to do to much and disposal average 

Not quite as polished as we'd like but had some big time clearances in the 2nd half.

He needs to think less and kick more inside 50. He often misses the chance to have a quick snap and ends up stuffing the ball or hand balling to trouble.

That's right, sometimes you just need to have the 'throw it on the boot' mentality.

“The whole team”

Opposition Hyperpole watch;

T Papley; beyond the usual cameos, wider audience mercifully spared the full bantam rooster routine back to feather dusters.

L Franklin; it appears now only deigns to participate when the spotlight is at its brightest, centre stage. After the now too brief high octane moments fades like yesterday’s star into the wings.

From the director’s chair;

Congratulations to Simon Goodwin and the off celluloid support crew. Another brilliant production with fresh ideas, innovation and new faces. But with no hint of throwing out the baby with the bath water. 

Adjudication;

Remained anonymous as they should, although a hint of over-zealousness has crept in with the fourth. Overall much more good than harm.

Broadcasters;

BT managed to keep the amateurish bombast largely in check. Cameron Ling has actually improved, with the addition of some intelligent insights. An enjoyable listen overall, guess it goes with being on the winning side.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
