and -476 for Salem for his ridiculous dinky kicks, but especially for missing an absolute sitter - not making the distance from 42 metres out.

6 May - kept the dangerous Curnow on a pretty tight leash.

5 Viney - four quarters of ferocious work.

4 Brayshaw - unspectacular but effective.

3 Petracca - influence grew as the game went on.

2 Hunter - did more than his share of running and chasing.

1 Oliver - quiet first half but helped turn the tide in the second.

 

Biggest disappointment: Salem, usually so calm and cool but the radar was sadly astray tonight.

4. Viney - forgiven for the volume of clangers because he frankly half the time it was supernatural that he even got the ball in the situations he was in.

3. Oliver - bit underdone, eh.

2. Rivers - one of few who really gained ground in useful ways

1. May - Broke even with the current best forward in the game.

There'd be some honourable mentions, but I really have to give my own -1 to Salem, who's [censored] pop-up handballs were more likely to get a teammate injured than get a counter-attack going, and whose kicking was all over the place.

Multiple players had some good moments but simply weren't in it often enough.

6 - JV 

5 - Gus just got better and better

4 - Tracc kicked the winning goal but was robbed

3 - Hunter 

2 - Ed

1 - Clarry had a huge second half very rusty but he has had a huge break from footy.

Special mentions to our mighty backline May, Lever, Riv, Judd & Bowey and our Skipper who dominated the Ruck contests.

6. Brayshaw. Hardest I've seen him work.

5. Viney

4. May. Did his job.

3. Rivers. Useful

2. Langdon. Kept running.

1. Tracc, 2 goals should have been 3.

Unlucky Lever

Just watched the replay.

6 Rivers - Good in air in greasy conditions and provided great disposal and dash and tight on opponents. Most improved player by miles.

5 Petracca - the classiest player on ground and hardest for Blues to contain scored the winning goal (which wasn't). Worked hard on defence as well.

4 Lachie Hunter - clever positioning all night. Not dangerous but always presenting and made a hue goalsquare marking contest save early.

3 Angus Brayshaw - like Trac seemed to realise Carlton's intensity was more than ours and stepped up and put his body on the line time and time again. But played on influential Cripps for a lot of night so loses points.

2 Steven May - really strong and provided offensive support with his lovely left foot. Held Coleman winner to two goals and about five kicks.

1 Jack Viney - gave it his all, but not as clean as the past three weeks, so just the one.

How can you have no defenders other than Salem & he was probably the worst defender on the night

Midfield was smashed for a half

    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. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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. 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
