Spargo ducked into it, so not a free.

Why didn't a single forward try and spoil that through for a behind? So lazy.

Yep on replay it was his own stupidity. 
We are disgraceful. Dumb. Fumbly. Lazy. Arrogant. 
Deserve to lose.

Ok, not a free to Spargo. 
 

But not a f$$$ing free against either!

[censored] first half Dees. Lift and get the job done. We’re losing to a loser team with no forward line! 

Brayshaw our only player who can hold his head high after the first half.

Incorrect.  He didnt duck he stopped, bringing the head forward, and copped a hip to the head thats concussed him and probably taken him out for the game. Pathetic umpiring.

Kozzie, Rivers, Petty, Sparrow - poor.

Kicking & Handballing choice and skills - poor.

Defensive aerial play - poor.

Groundball work around marking contests - getting slaughtered.

I hope Tmac is sent back the twos for much more than a week. Didn't touch it that quarter.  No tackles. No marks. No intensity.

We so miss Max's marking.

Contest. Defence. Both have been absolute fails today.

Bombers have been hungrier.

When Steven and co are fumbly and out of position, its usually not a great sign. I can't remember the last time i havent seen us not take an intercept mark or even more simply, get utterly dominated in contested marking in our own d 50 in a while. 

If we all didn't know it already, Rick is clearly crucial to having an organised back 6.

What is going on with the backline? They are all over the place.

When a kick down the line happens we need to have at least someone at the back of the contest. Essendon are just getting that easy takeaway and sending it forward.

Essendon is the most mid team in the league. They're not even playing that well. Which makes this all the more frustrating to watch.

Petraca and Oliver having a lazy day.

I don't want to see Tomlinson again, and Petty looks like he forgot his defence craft with all the forward play.

Chandler just give the [censored] ball to ANB, what a disgraceful selfish decision.

Where's TMac and Melksham?

The attacking team can’t spoil a ball for a behind after the siren

    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
