Well look on the bright side after last night's disappointment. At least Kane Cornes will be a sad boy tonight.

He’ll find way to blame brayshaw

if I was on Twitter I’d troll him with memes on this theme

Plenty of corridor footy so far. the game has moved on and we haven't got the memo yet.

You need players with good foot skills to play that type of football. We don't have too many of those.

You don't need many - you just need to set your game up to use them properly. Bowey, McVee, Salem all good users but we make them play like lockdown defenders to fit the contest and defence mantra.

So Giants get a 6 day break and Carlton a 7? That seems wrong.

Carlton 8, if played on Saturday. 

Seems funny, GWS playing all over the place, only get the 6 days.

Carl getting 8 even without travel interstate.

Had to be 7 day break each, prior to preliminary.

Did Collingwood decide that?

If they beat the Wood, then at least they get 1 more day to prep for the Grand.

Straight sets for 2 x top 4 teams who finished with a combined 6.5 more wins than the blues & gws, premature contract extensions for both Hinkley 10 yrs no flags Goodwin 1 x flag which you can understand but not sure what the rush was

I'm sitting with the in laws and they're calling Pickett a thug and the media beat up over Maynard taking brayshaw flowers “oh they played together as juniors “

Hope you gave 'em both barrels.

Looks like half of the Giants fans are family and crows supporters.

Fair few empty seats that I saw in the stadium. I wonder if Kane will be disappointed in the crowd size.

The number 1 priority was to get Collingwood the Friday night prelim as reward for getting the minor premiership.

I can’t stand the filth but they deserved the potential 8 day break into the GF regardless of the clubs below them.

I'd be ropable if our club went out the way Port have in their last two big do-or-die finals though. Games over at quarter time/half time. Never even get started until its too late.

Those misses in the last, when they were going hurt Port the most.

Because that's his personality flaw, Thug.

Once a thug, always a thug.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
