Sparrow,  River's etc just [censored] their dacks when under pressure they cannot think it through.

Sparrow, Chandler & Petty should not be playing.

Assuming a second half the same as that first... i'd add Clarry to that but will wait to see if he can turn it around.

Viney has also been a long way off his best for whatever reason since the Crows game.

Even if we get well on top and win most contests it wont result in goals because we butcher the ball. We get in open space, no pressure and cant take advantage. It's so frustrating to watch as a supporter.

I'd play Trac out of the goal square and push the other forwards up the ground.

Protects his body and back him to win it 1v1 deep.

Seriously [censored] off and stop mentioning  binman every time the team is playing like [censored]. 
 

We all support the same team, but that’s where a lot of our commonality ends. People who make comments like this are lacking cerebral power. Also that particular poster should be booted off the site entirely.

We’ve gone All In on Contested ball with the end result usually being a stoppage in our over crowded forward 50, Goodwin has nothing else. That Tired and well exposed game plan won’t cut it anymore.

Wasted opportunity to trade clarry & petty at the end of last year. The bold moves we needed to make to set this playing list up for years to come. Just like onfield, we’re WAY too safe off it aswell.

Season and Window over I've given them enough chances to prove me wrong.

I've seen enough, if you can't beat half a F'n VFL side then that's enough from me.

Play the kids and start again.

 

There aren’t that many kids to play. The list is looking bog ordinary.

I don't blame Goody for ten players not laying a single tackle for a half.

Just weak and heartless.

 

You know that's normal, right?

Sydney finished their win over Geelong with 5 players without a tackle, and another five with only one for the game.

Hawthorn had 4 players with zero, and another 6 with just 1.

Today's game has been flawed by missed shots on goal, defence pulled out of its comfort zone, a scattering of bad turnovers in bad places, some iffy umpiring as always and a star player hurt, but it has been a legit effort.

Trac needs to go home to bed. He is playing probably with broken ribs and can’t move

I have never seen the coaches lock themselves away at half time for a meeting. Very weird.

They're trying to work out how they can further destroy a premiership list by playing even more boring insipid football.

Laurie and Chandler are second rate and Turner and Howes are not ready. More holes in our list than Swiss cheese 

Our senior acquisitions have been ordinary since the 21 GF as well.

Dunstan, Hunter, Billings all rubbish.

Our list management has been millionaire stuff.

Even the best teams replenish year on year with quality. Not us.

Great work by Koz to get it to him too.

Why were they both sitting on the bench last qtr?

    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
