PTSD baby

It seems a bit that way, considering Geelong were there to be run over. Holmes didn’t want it inside early, and now the games opened up he’s a factor. Petracca needs to just tell our midfield to get out of his way. Sometimes I think Viney is a liability for Petracca.

So much good footy finished with sloppy lazy goal kicking. We are very much in and they are playing as well as they can. It's about composure under pressure and composure while exhausted now. We need someone to stand up and LEAD us to a win.

Will that knee to Gawns head get looked at.  It bloody well should !!!

How was that not a free kick???????

I feel like I’ve seen this movie against the cats about 50 times before. Dominate large chucks of the game, kick a boat load of behinds, loose by a narrow margin when we should have won by 5-6 goals

Are you allowed to knee someone in the head in the ruck? You’re not marking the ball

It was a deliberate tactic. 100%.

Inability to take our chances in high pressure games is a serious trend.

Hey but you can't criticise the sacrosanct coaches. At some point, they are responsible for list recruiting and development. It's 3 years of the same thing, can't kick a score and fall short. How long more are we going to cope?

2.7 to 4.2 in that qtr…

5.4 and we’d be a handy couple of goals up. Instead we’re only a couple of points down but they are now converting, even if flukey sometimes and we can’t even slot them in from 30

Cats get ball from backline spread it to outside every time with loose players time and time again someone in the box wake up.

I thought it should have been a free because it stopped gawn competing in the ruck contest

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
