Swans just executing their game plan and skills better. They look like they have more time

Don't enjoy potting players, but I'm yet to see anything from Laurie that suggests he's up to the level yet. Sub him off for Billings at half time.

Training drill for the swans unfortunately. We really needed that call early when ANB should’ve had a shot 10m out directly in front. Umpires have been disappointing. So have we though.

Keep calm Demonlanders. Everything will be ok………..I think

👏Gawn. Tomlinson.  Viney.  Only !!! 

Max is having no impact at all.

One disposal. No marks.

Tommo tick.

Oliver looks good.

Kick straight and we win.

It's a big if though.

This years game plan is looking a lot like last year’s and the year before that, and the year before that….goal kicking accuracy is shizen again.

If you listen to everyone it's not even worth watching the rest because if you don't take your chances you're stuffed.

Why the [censored] did an underdone spargo get picked ahead of the class-machine Billings?

Not enough credit given to Swans. Suffocating our ball movement and cutting through our zone too easy with shirt kicks and switches.

I don’t see what he adds? And Billings at least finds the ball

Spargo around goal 🤮

Fritta playing on instead of doing the team thing and taking the alloted time so our press could set up and players recover.  As a rookie i'd get it... but for an experienced player that's a shocker and SG should make sure he never does that again.

All players should be on notice here not just Fritta.  Has to be a team rule unless only a few minutes of match time to go and we need a very quick goal.

Spargo and Fritta have to nail those two goals, you don’t miss them at AFL level. 
 

We aren’t playing well, but it’s the first quarter. Get a run on and get some confidence.

    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.
