Adjudication;

Acceptable in terms of balance, no obvious howlers, consistency of decision making still needs work. Pass mark except for Umpire Stevic, Toby Greene has my vote.

Broadcaster;

BT is an unimaginative partisan [censored] his true colours ‘black and white’  were to the fore during the filth’s last momentum surge. Nanthan Jones was somewhere in the mix.

Opposition hyperbole watch;

Mason Cox is an absolute PRAT game over and still acting like a YANK. Brayden Maynard had the good grace to be sporting in defeat.


From the director’s chair;

In an effort to get the goal kicking sorted, Choco’s Goal Kicking Academy will be running school holidays’ classes this bye. Final score margin flattered Collingwood massively.

6 Viney - is this his best season?

5 Salem - 9 intercept possessions, 10 marks, 24 disposals. He was back to his best today.

4 Hunter - I thought he was particularly important to cut the Pies run and width options. Early on they tried to drag us out of the corridor by overlapping wide, waiting for us to chase and then cutting back. Hunter was critical in stopping that, and was damaging going the other way.

3 McVee - I thought he had such a major influence on this game, through impacting contests, one on ones etc. Particularly early. Only 11 disposals (7 from intercepts) but it was the contests he won that was so crucial for us.

2 Fritsch - but kicked 3/8 goals and kept Darcy Moore accountable.

1 Rivers - continuing a fine season. Bobs up everywhere, intercept marks, long kicks. Today his short kicking game was significantly improved as well.

 

Lots of options for the last couple of votes. Tomlinson was good. Petracca used his strength all day. Joel Smith was important forward. And Langdon was tireless on the other wing.

Very glad to see Hunter in people's votes. Because he's a new player and not a long term Dee people on here have been way to quick to slag him. Absolute gun.

Great to see Tomlinson amongst most DLanders votes. He was very good today. Solid defensive effort. Good marks.  Hit targets by hand and foot.  Had the height and physical nature to play on Cox and Cameron. Allowed May to play on Mihocek.

Riv, Fritta, Max, Gus, Tracc, Lever, and probably others ‘squeezed’ out of the votes, in an outstanding overall Team Performance!

2. Petracca (disagree with The Age that called him "ineffectual". I thought his ability to extract the contested ball and stand up when tackled went a long way toward us winning)

1. Neal-Bullen (spent a lot of time successfully minding N Daicos early and then used his power running in the last quarter to cause huge problems for the Pies)

I notice that a lot of people have given votes to Hunter and Rivers. I thought Hunter made too many simple disposal errors. Rivers was probably unlucky not to get a vote from me. But so were Grundy, McVee and Brayshaw (after a dodgy start)

Love being right in terms of where I think we are at, primed for this one! Kick straight and its a 6-8G win!!!

 

All duck, no dinner -- Ed was spot-on and the playing group was eager to show it, despite nearly costing themselves. Expected score must of been 90-50 type stuff surely...

    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.

    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.
