not a vintage performance but we got the 4 points. that's all that matters

umpiring not good. so blatantly biased. 

looks like May pulled up ok. played well and totally vindicated decision to select him, particularly first half.

4-1 is a great start to the season. we're in a great chance this year folks make no mistake.

Go Dees.

Bog with broken ribs.

Never had the misfortune. Can't imagine it'd be fun if you needed to force one out

Said pregame I didn't care how it looked, just wanted the 4 points and no injuries. 

Really annoyed at Kozzie tbh. His lack of discipline really hurt us in the sf against Carlton last year and he still does dumb stuff like that. 

Still very pleased overall though

I reckon we ran out of petrol off a 5 day break.  Did enough to win, then shut it down.  I’ll take the 8 points and roll on.

Picket doesn’t seem to have learned anything from his last suspension. 

Looks like he might miss a week again. 

He needs to learn from his mistakes.

No reward for our tackling.

Well done backline.

Adelaide, mostly individuals, trying to win it by themselves.

Absolutely. I totally wrote him off at the start of the year, he is looking so bloody solid.

Good to win in different ways. Kicking for goal was very ordinary tonight. 

Good team effort. Loved Howes in the last.

Petracca best on ground.

Fritta three goals in third.

McVee in first half.

Well we definitely know how to win ugly.

Lets hope for a change and turn it back in to poetry next week

We were absolutely cooked in the last. We put the foot down in the third knowing we would run out of gas in the last. That last quarter was just professional defensive slog. Brilliant. Don’t underestimate how tough these two games were.

Just hung on. Our talls helped out with some last gasp marking. We were tired from a frantic port game.

Job done.

Huge games from Trac and Maysie.

Jibba nails those two first half sitters and it doesn't even get close. 

Poor old BT sounded so deflated at the end. 😂

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
