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

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?

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.

- Viney, great as always

- Sparrow, inspired

- ANB, good 1% ers

- Spargo, would rather Billings

- Schache, don’t know if he is AFL quality

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.

    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
