Excellent win, very strongly influenced by our next generation players.  
My votes:

6.  Rivers  -  BOG!  His week by week improvement as a mid bodes extremely well for our future, both in 2024 and beyond.  
5.   JvR  -  his best game at the level.  Another youngster on a significant upward trajectory.  Huge future for a young KPF.
4.   Windsor  - has shown great potential from his debut in Round 0, and today was his best yet!   
3.   TMac  -  choosing the right option, and pin point passing by hand and foot were features today.  The only ‘elder statesman’ in my votes, but he’s rediscovered his ‘youth’ as a defender.   
2.  Pickett  -  always dangerous, and continuing to build his consistency in the combined midfield / forward role.  
1.   Chandler  -   excellent game as a defensive forward, which was great reward for his outstanding work-rate.

I reckon we turned an important corner today, but next week will be more testing material.

6 - Trent Rivers, has taken over the reins

5 - Jacob van Rooyen, best yet 4.4 could have been 5-6.

4 - Caleb “The Duke” Windsor showed his full range of skills today, had strong impact

3 - Tom McDonald provided defensive excellence , I would also love him to go around again in ‘25.

2 - Kozzie what a great game and loved that he finally took that screamer.

1 - Mr. Ed Langdon back to his best, looks like he is enjoying playing footy again, maybe a new contract just around the corner?

Then ANB, Jake Melksham (makes us better), Kolt, Chandler, Salo, Judd McVee, Frittata is back, we batted deep today, great team effort, no passengers.

Quite remarkable to think that it is more than feasible to say that our best 5 players on the ground were 23 and under. Rivers, Windsor, Kossie, JVR and McVee. Honourable mentions to Chin, Kolt and AMW. Add to that most of our established  'stars' were good to average it's a very encouraging performance.  Sure, it's only the Eagles, but it's a 10 goal mauling.  Not sure if this has occurred often in the AFL.

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
