2nd qtr 

Turnovers.  So lazy. Salem shocking turnovers.  Missed target x2 led to goals to Freo. Why is he even in.  Lazy player. Switkowski. Salem runs off and gets caught out as a non defender!!  Poor 

Contested possession - Freo +28!!

stoppages Freo +7 (5-12) 

forward turnovers  dees 7 score nil 

forward turnovers Freo 13 goals 8 

Hunter - 2 missed tackles weak  

Petty is nothing  can’t mark can’t tackle 

Turner gives nothing  out marked and out run by defenders 

Sparrow  Rivers fumbles 

Sparrow on Young  young giving him a bath 

Trac  30 metre angle - left foot snaps wtf !!! Use right foot 

Freo  kick run mark skills 😡😡

Best players  NIL

OLIVER ZERO CONTESTED POSSESSIONS IN A HALF OF FOOTY

VINEY WITH ONE

WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS MIDFIELD?!

It has been run into the ground by a severe lack of depth and quality rotations. Our recruiting has been diabolical.

The Goodwin gameplan has severely under valued speed and transition on top so we are now overly reliant on centre breaks and dominance at half back.

This midfield implosion has been in the making for at least 2 yrs.

Not really surprised after the eagles game.

Oliver is a shadow of his old self.

Tracca has been quiet this year too.

Sparrow is lucky to get games.

And then there is our fwd line.

We don't have one. 

We are shot and we have few coming up through the ranks.

Our dominance is well and truly over.

It's back to the dark old days.

Or at least mediocrity.

Where are the clowns who find every excuse under the sun for our poor performances this season. I want to hear the excuses for this rubbish.

Two Freo players hold the ball and effectively tackle each other Nibbles tackles them. No holding the ball. WTF???

Didn’t we have a 51 point comeback with Austin back in the day haha, we’re gonna need exactly that to win and restrict them the nil.

Go dees! Gotta laugh because I feel like crying. This isn’t system adjustment stuff, this is just sad.

Except for the first 5 minutes, they are making us look amateurs...

Freo pressure and system totally killing us, easily moving end to end and blocking all exits. 

No pressure or even fight around contest, unlike free around the contest.  

Pity any dees supporters that flew up the watch.

Worst first half since 2018 prelim. 3rd grossly uncompetitive display this season. WTF is going on?

absolutely terrible effort, while max is getting the tap out it is going to the opposition and they are clearing the ball, he need to get the ball to our players. when it goes the freo players out of the ruck, our midfield is not putting pressure on them. why they hell do we not man up they are running rings around us with this stupid zone game we play. collingwood and north must be loving this.

Heads will roll for this performance. Something is seriously wrong with this club. West coast, now this. Need to step back and rethink the list

Not trading Petty to Adelaide is one of our bigger list mistakes in a long time

We would be lucky to get a bag of old marbles for him .

One disposal for a half.

No marbles.

In reality ...selling the game is NOT the real issue.

Getting thumped is..

We play like yoyos 

Team is very over-rated imo... sorry to say.

Nice the lads have a good mate in  Simon

Kum by ya ...

Go Dees ( back to the airport....just go home..... youre obvious not interested)

    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.
