Interesting take by the coaches. Pleased Bowey was recognised and Viney was our standout. I thought Haines played a great game as did the coaches. 2nd week in a row the Intercept defender in the opposition backline has thwarted us. There is one glaring hole in our so-called super-defensive forward line. The plan isn't working

Any idea how many votes Viney is on?

Seems to poll every week and yet isn't on the leader board. Would have at least 19 alone in the Collingwood and GWS games alone.

Sneaky All Aust 40 squad this year?

Josh Kelly just always seems to lift against us and is rarely sighted for the rest of the season. It’s more than a coincidence now . Id love to understand the motivation, because it definitely is there.

10, 3 and 9 in the last three games is a pretty phenomenonal rating for Viney.

Given he has a well-earned reputation for rising to big occasions, I suspect he at least is one player on our list acutely aware of what has been at stake these last few games.

Unfortunately I think there's a couple of guys who are content 'doing their thing' rather than really pushing that extra level. 

For example, Nibbler's pangolin impression has me suspecting that he's happy with doing that much and geting the breakeven stoppage; doesn't feel the need to actually beat his opponent.

I also suspect Hunter, despite being very busy and reasonably good overall, is a bit too content to do his favourite tricky trick with the bounce handballs without really worrying too much about whether it is the best option for both reward or risk.

That's a digression, but emphasises the point that really, everyone needs to be more Viney.

Really? Rarely sighted? He's averaging 30 touches a game. Had 41 against the Lions and 33 and 3 goals against Freo.

To be fair no one notices GWS players unless playing against their side. The exception is when Toby Green creates another outrage.

I think Petracca is on 17 Brownlow votes now. None in the last 2 weeks. 

I have Petracca third in my Brownlow Medal predictions, on 18.2 votes.

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
