Trac and Oliver with a preseason, is not the difference here. Don’t be fooled into thinking everything in 25 will be all right.

There’s losing and then there’s losing. This game should be over. Doggies should be up by 50 points. That is not a 1 -1.5 player difference. 

Yes we are banged up but guess what, guarantee you that half their squad is probably carrying something too.

Goodwin has got this team playing so conservative and so slow that there is nothing positive about anything we do.

The season is done, take the shackles off and play with some flare and positivity and implement  changes now. Don’t wait until pre season.

There is no way that the Langdon tackle on English should be considered excessive force.

Even if it was that happens when umps refuse to reward our tackling.

Langdon is half the size of English, Tim is just soft as butter.

Hard to be critical of small forwards when the ball doesn't get there, and for all the Petty haters, he competed well every time the ball has. Come into his vacinity

Betchya if we somehow steal this game. He'll get suspended

This game is basically just a slightly ****ter version of our last 4 finals. Never look like winning but weirdly don't quite look like losing.

Not sure why people are having a go at Petty? We’ve had 17 inside 50s 

He can always come down the ground and have a crack.

Maybe he hasn't been given licence but his three disposals don't sing his praises.

We are still in this so we'll see what happens in the first ten of this second half.

Yes we are banged up and it has been the season from hell for a number of reasons.  Just a reminder that the Dogs are the form team in the league atm and destroyed the Cats and Swans in the last two weeks.  Perspective.

That passage just comes up are slowness and half hearted attempts at spoiling.

Jvr has no awareness of the ball upon landing to dogs goal.

Bang.

It’s actually completely the opposite. The finals we dominated everything but the scoreboard.

    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

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie
