So good to see Petty hit some form .

Some of those marks were huge.

Got great elevation and really clunked them.

Reminds me a little of the Swans game at the G nearly exactly 3 years ago. They were coming but we kept winning 50-50 contests late and got over the line.

A mate, a big dees fan, watched the game at home just texted me and said good thing I watched live because derm would have broken my brain if I had watch it on the box.

They kicked themselves our of the game? 

We were 12 points up on xscore at half time. 

And I suspect halfway through the third the xscore would have been minimum plus 25 with Windsor's miss, kozzies miss and nibblas shocker.

Those 3 goals get kicked 80% of the time minimum (which is how they arrive at xscore).

Thank God we won that game because WE would have been rightly bemoaning gifting them the game.

We dominated the first half of the third and should have got out to a match winning lead.

I'm on my home.

Ill watch the replay and have a laugh at breteton.

It's embarrassing for the sport that bloke is paid to analyse it.

Definitely could have lost it in the third, was doing my head in, would have been so frustrating to lose.

Fantastic win. Played good consistent footy over 4 quarters. Frittas goal will send me to sleep in orgasmic waves of joy.

Wow wee what a game. Just finished watching as I was at a Star Wars marathon today here in the west.

Great game by the boys if we take out that terrible run of points from the 2nd qtr.  I would say it was out best game for the year. 

Good to see Petty get his touch back, what 11 marks most contested.  As I mentioned before he needed a few more games at Casey to find that touch, but it's here now.

Gee, the umpire need to get back to giving 50's for back chat, the amount of disputes by the Geelong players when free given against them was terrible, especially the one where is was telling the umpire he need to look.  The AFL again doesn't enforce rules properly.  I counted at least 5 instances of it on TV.  

Bring on the blues..

Windsors highlights of this game prove he is worthy of 7’s MVP and TV. If he doesn’t get rising star someone must be kicking 10 tomorrow. 
Caleb is a jet and has the ability to be a serious long term player with many an all Australian jacket collected along the way. Love what he is doing now but can’t wait to see what he brings in the future

Btw he is tougher than the Daicos guy, there I said it 😤

May kicked the ball like the real Steve May for the first time in 3 years.

Petty with a proper chf game, he can absolutely do it.

Great games out of Langdon and Windsor 

Plenty to like and a proper tough win 

Petty marked everything that came near him but Roo seemed to be doing the same early. He faded and had a couple of moments he'd like back but if he can mature into the player we think he will and Petty sticks around they can be a pretty formidable duo with Fritsch, Koz, Chandler and McAdam when he debuts around them

Does anyone have a contact at the club in the membership department?

For the 3rd home game in a row I had to move people out of our Reserved Seats, and we sat surrounded by Geelong supporters who just wandered in. The MCG staff don’t give a [censored]. I’m over it.

Gonna change something with the sub. Laurie just doesn't have it, he's not an impact player. 1 touch and no tackles with fresh legs is not what we need with the game on the line.

Just 2% behind GWS who were unbackable for the flag last week.  

Yep the talk about Melbourne after beating Richmond by 43 points, was a disgrace by the media and many posters on demonland, king. And Whiteley couldn't put us in the top five in their rankings. If either put us in the top 4 raking I will spew up

BTW JvR held 3 marks, one grab, no chest involved, very promising, was getting really worried he had shot his confidence on taking the ball. Super competitive in the ruck too despite being undersized.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    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
