Jason Taylor was a big Humphrey fan, good to know he’s still got an eye for it. 

After the early morning post match review, straight to the pool room to watch Humphery at 9:30.

They are a very good side wait till you see what happens to us on KB.

Yeah I know.

The two games last year against the Pies confirmed that we can’t go the distance with Collingwood’s manic and fast paced football.

We play Alice, we won’t get the Darwin game. 

why not... the Darwin game is an away game and will be rotated through the smaller Melbourne clubs of which we are one

We lost to Sydney twice last year which many said “confirmed” we couldn’t go with them. 

I hope the club hasn’t written our chances off like you have.

Port are now becoming trust worthy.

In prior years this would be the sort of game they’d drop on the road as favourites.

Anyone see then as a flag chance?

This question shouldn’t need to be asked. 

They are 100% a flag chance. Right now they have claims to being the best side in the comp. They have already shown that, no matter what happens today.

Because both games are played around the same time of year, and we can’t and won’t be made to travel to the NT twice in as many weeks. It just won’t happen.

Expected a lot more from The Tiger today. Hardwick would be gutted "watching from home" by the lack of response so far.

Bit tough they are only a goal down.

How good is umpiring…. Said no one ever

Footy is becoming unwatchable. Need to go back to three Umps with the fourth watching from the stand. The AFL need to do something about it but wont.

How frustrating is it to see port miss these goals. Couldn't happen last week could it. No of course they take there opportunities against us 

They missed heaps in the first half. It was the only reason we were still in the contest at half time.

Why have umpires stopped paying pushes in the back in marking contests?

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
