Viney - wonderful second half

Grundy - dominated when required 

May - steady and safe

Langdon - surprisingly wasteful early

Fritsch - classy when involved

Brayshaw - struggled getting involved 

Lever - lacked spatial awareness 

Rivers - continued impressive season 

Chandler - an important contributor 

Spargo - disposal elite again

Neal-Bullen - was rarely sighted

Oliver - prolific as expected 

Hunter - consistent and reliable 

Pickett - better second half

Petracca - surprisingly didn’t dominate

Thought Sparrow was 'above standard' today.

Starting to his use strength to break away from tackles.

Thought Nibbler was excellent. In a game where we weren't clean it was the tackles and pressure that counted and he smashed it in both categories.

joeboy, back to your ‘slightly’ controversial best. Did you mistakenly wear your bottom of the coke bottle specs? With prescription standard  correction you’d get clearer 60 60 vision. Respectfully suggest:

Angus Brayshaw;  battled man fully 

Alex Neal-Bullen; nibbled not nobbled

Auto-correct can be bloody annoying!

I think Angus would need to have 100 possessions @ 100% and your comment would :  Doesn't share !!

ANB worked his ring off!!!

Hardly sighted…Please

It is good to see ANB working so hard and his ground coverage is tremendous (most opposition sides tend to divert around him, now. as a consequence). His defensive game is really improving; and, it is just great when he is nearing the goals - he has improved his accuracy and kit-bag of kicking skills to score rather frequently and often, has found space in which to deploy.

Funny how people have such different perspectives. 

I sighted Anb numerous times. I saw about 7 hard tackles from him.

Played well.

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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
