Poor Carlton. Imagine having to sit through an entire Fremantle v Port game for any reason.

Seeing Dusty shed a tear today really got me.  One of the best players to ever play the game, and yet Dusty never made it about him. Always humble, respectful and happy to do his thing.  An abs

very harsh free kick against Cripps

karma for all the unpenalized throws.

 

Should have included a 50 meter. Lucky Paddy did the right thing.

Howler of a free kick against Cripps, but if Carlton now lose by under a goal, there is a part of me that will be deeply pleased.

So we want St Kilda and Port to win?

But Port can't move up or down (unless they lose badly), would they care tonight?

good point ... they can't be too motivated and won't want to risk injuries

Commentator said, to the letter of the law I suppose it was a free, what other law is there?

If the Saints could handpass to the receivers' hands rather than their ankles and knees they would transition better.

Who does that remind us of, I wonder idly?

I am torn, on the one hand I want Carlton to lose. On the other, I want Freo to lose.

But if Carlton does lose, Freo is all but certain in the 8.

Freo still must win..  I back them but it's no certainty

The Carlton-St Kilda game has some atmosphere and shenanigans for sure, but I love the background detail that if Port beat Freo then this game can have absolutely no effect on anything at all.

Except we would drop to getting pick 5 instead of 6. Hmm...

Go Saints

Go Power 🤢

If Carlton lose, we also want Power to lose so that Freo takes the last spot in the eight (and thus denying Carlton a final).

Go Saints.  Go Freo.

If they lose by more than 5 goals Geelong will finish 2nd.

If Saints lose this we will most likely slide to pick 7 with the Josh Battle compensation.

    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.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    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
