Really worried about this one. Not overly confident because at the end of the day it's Richmond. They've won't 3 premierships in this era and still have high quality premiership players running around.

I hope that the fact that we also have high quality premiership players running around eases your worry. :)

Except win us the round 23 game at Geelong to give us the minor premiership, kick 5 in a prelim, lead us to a flag, etc etc.

Super disappointing loss to Essendon.  They had a plan and executed very well. Brought serious heat and intent and we were hit hard from the start and never recovered. Way too many good players d

Hopefully we at least get Lever back this week. I've been thinking about the loss and about how poor we were, by our standards, behind the ball. Our intercept game was off and Essendon scored far

Morale of the story is this isn't a walk in the park as some think.

Some still haven't learnt their lesson for thinking the same against Essendon I see..

Great teams still lose matches throughout the season. 

We have travelled quite a bit, haven't had a settled side this year and our defensive chemistry was completely off for that game.
We ran into a red hot bombers who have had a bit of a dream run so far and who were traveling for the first time this year. The game was what it was.

It doesn't shake my confidence in a Melbourne side filled with the most premiership players i've seen in my life.

Wow, 1 goal from a key forward, Geelong got 10 this round!

Agreed, I had some concerns heading into the bombers game and nothing is a given in this competition.

 

Dees by 12 goals.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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
