We're a big chance as Footscray are banned from training at their usual venue.

Zero effort from the umpire to call play on. Viney couldn’t impact kick due to the umps laziness or cheating.

Without any sort of explosiveness in the middle Viney and Oliver are useless.

 

Put Pickett in there and bloody leave him there.

How can we give up the first 9 scoring shots of the game, seriously? Looks to be turning a little but geez there are slow starts and there’s this. Dogs are running hot and will take great pleasure in eliminating our finals chances. Let’s not just hand it to them on a platter?

What's happened to our tackling over the last month or two? It feels as though opposition players break out of them way too easily.

missed tackles really getting on my nerves

Our team is an expert on missed tackles and poor kicking skills. Not addressed enough by the coaching staff for years now.

Petty doesn't work hard enough to keep the ball forward.

Also English is destroying Gawn.

I feel like that’s been an issue most of the year. Everyone else looks to have Velcro and we’ve got oily hands.

And can we please stop playing Max for this season?

It's clear that with and without him we are an average team at best.

Better to keep his body fresh for next season, he is our only ruckman.

You may as well. No use leaving Pickett forward

[censored] we seem to have given up

Lack of tackling, no defensive effort, can’t win a clearance. Really poor way to finish a season.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
