Gawn - All Australian performance 

Viney - great first half

Pickett - always looked likely

Neal-Bullen - impressive connection game

Billings - many wasted possessions 

Salem - impressive first half

Langdon - needed more involvement 

Petty - had some moments

Sparrow - not a tagger

McVee - rarely showed out

McDonald - held opponent well

Chandler - was rarely dangerous 

Lever - just a shadow

Tomlinson - effective not showy

Hore - some inexplicable errors

Oliver - lazy and inefficient 

Turner -?had little impact 

Fritsch - a wasted talent

Howes - held dangerous opponent 

Tholstrup - regularly lacked awareness 

Rivers - a disappointing performance

Bit tough  on melksham…he played half a quarter! plus he was involved in what should have been the winning play via fritsch and tholstrup.

I thought TMac was not good tonight, and was outmarked by Ratagulea multiple times. Chandler was terrific in his pressure and tackling - surely you saw that, Joeboy! Hore was much better in there second half as he got the pace of the game. And Oliver has many issues, with his hand and his  fitness, but not lazy! So:

 

Joeboy - got many wrong.

There’s a few players with covid at other clubs who are suffering. Wouldn’t surprise if a few of our players are too.

McVee - not a mid 

Does not have the frame or ability in heavy congestion. He's a ripping 1v1, aerial and slingshot player. His home is half back.

I am far from a Sparrow fan but the amount of times I’ve seen ‘Sparrow - great tagging game’ or similar would suggest you do think he can tag

So you base that broad statement on a sample of one and a bit games? Gee, you're good Nostradamus.

I'm not basing it on his output as a mid last night. I'm basing it on my assessment of him as a player and I've been saying this ever since people started mentioning his name for midfield 

Am allowed to have long held opinions champ. Jog on

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
