Reluctantly, but I’ll have a crack.

Can hold their heads up:

6.  Hanks

5.  Goldrick

4.  Hore

For effort only, on a day when most of our players wandered around like lost sheep:

3.  Purcell

2.  Heath

1.  McNamara

That's what I can muster in a team that played like they'd never met each other before. On WCW's intel, I'm hoping that was the result of some kind of fever dream...

Is there something we don't know?

I’m sure it’ll become public knowledge soon enough.

Are you able to elaborate on this WCW?

Yes, I actually can now. Covid swept through the team. It began the weekend of our last H&A vs Brisbane. It hit more than half the side, to varying degrees. Some players were badly impacted to the point of not being able to train during the week between the Brisbane and North games. Even Mick wasn’t spared.

At Sunday’s GF, the North cheer squad said they knew about it and felt for us (of course, that didn’t stop them from smacking us in the QF) and I’m sure Geelong knew as well.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
