It's hard to find players to give votes to after that performance, but I'm surprised by the love for Hunter. I thought he had a stinker. He covered some ground but, to me at least, it seemed every disposal was either a turnover or he sold his teammates into trouble.

Was not.

Was so ... 6 major turn-overs delivering the ball. Perhaps more, as I was not really counting but recalling, after the game.

We were outworked, outmarked and outplayed by a team that had our measure and adapted to the conditions much better from the first bounce. Draper is going to be a nightmare when he really gets going.!!

Viney was dreadful... Back to Viney of old!

I'm surprised to see how many people have lauded Viney's game. I thought he was part of the problem with his poor delivery. And the idea that he should get votes because of his effort astounds me. If that's how we award votes, Walking Civil War should get 6 every week. Oliver and Petracca were streets ahead of everybody else.

6.  Any dees supporter who travelled from interstate to watch the game live.  True dedication.  Love you.

5.  Any dees supporter who travelled from other regions of SA to watch the game live.  Amazing.

4.  Any dees supporter who travelled from within Adelaide to watch the game live.  Good stuff.

3.  Any dees supporter who watched the entire game on TV.  Good.  (That's me.  My mental health is suffering as a result)

2.  Any dees supporter who watched until 3/4 time on TV.  Meh

1.  Any dees supporter who switched off their TV earlier than 3/4 time.  Boo

From the director’s chair; 

Home and away is starting to look like a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde horror movie. Selections for Anzac eve will reflect Hammer Films Productions, after a no show matinee last Saturday afternoon. Be prepared for some old fashioned blood letting on the casting couch.

Adjudication;

Dons got some sure goals from the goal square, some justified other soft as Gil’s over buttered cold toast on Sunday morning .

Broadcasters;

Propaganda courtesy of the Scott brothers. Sticky fingers in everything. Nauseating.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
