Just finishing off a little soiree at The Manor. Good night all round and enjoying lashings for desert. After a quick kip, your good old Uncle Bitter will be up and about to watch the Dees clean

Credit to Goodwin. Our attacking method feels different. We are using the corridor more. Our field kicking has been good. We are taking a moment to assess the next kick attacking out of half back. I l

I understand the plan now, bomb it to the hotspot so many times that the defenders crash into each other and take out their ruckman - and hopefully crumb a couple of goals in the process. 
 

Nice to see it come together after 2 years of trying

Will happily take the lead (albeit slim) considering how much space we've allowed the Bulldogs forwards so far.

Windsor looks good. Staggering that Billings was given the sub vest last week. Hasn't looked out of place at all so far.

Surprised the doggies didn’t follow Sydney and just flood the drop of the ball with players. Worked a treat for them last week.

Great to see us out marking the opposition for once.

Some decent umpiring and we are two goals up .

May looking good.

Kozzie too.

Chandler getting better.

Jvr and Oliver getting involved.

Lot of belting it blindly into the F50, luckily the Dogs defenders seem to have NFI under the high ball…could go either way though we would want to play a bit better to put a break on them

Nice comeback after the dogs start.

Billings has done some nice things, vineys kicking is a lot better and van rooyen is taken some good marks. 

Just need trac to stop fumbling

Ahead on all the key stats

Forward entry is the usual failure but the Dogs backline is their weakest spot so we might be on

Fix that and we win.

Just lead and create space and stop bombing.

They'll catch onto it soon enough. Unbelievable we're still dumping it in

Where is Max?

I've only got radio and stats to watch here, so maybe I am missing something?

7 disposals, 3 marks, 4 clearances, 2 intercepts, 2 rebound 50s, 3 score involvements, 130m gained at 85% DE seems like a pretty good first quarter for a ruck.

Cheers.

I was worried he was injured when Jvr was rucking for so long.

    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 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
