I think we've met, but I'd just like to say hi and remind you all that I am still the teams most important player by a country mile.

It would be even better to have you back if the big girl Jeff White would only help you out instead of squibbing it...

Hi Kojak,

Jared here. I work extremely hard to help my teammates out in contests but when I need help a senior player squibs it. I will have some harsh words with Jeffery later.

Love Jared.

great to see rivers back in the team, although mooney soundly beat him today... lucky for us he didn't kick straight... will improve in the coming weeks...

Mooney was on fire today and would have kicked many more on anyone else.

Beat him with a stick Jared... with.a.stick!!!

Completely inexcusable lack of aggression there from Whitey. Almost ruined a perfectly good match from him.

Lets not forget that Rivers hasn't played in about 18 months. It will take him a while to adjust to the speed of the game, but still, some of his spoils were first class. He knows how to position himself better than anyone in the team.

In a team like ours this year (one that's going to lose LOTS of games) Rivers is our most important players because he is damage control. Holds up our backline, as teh commentators noted he is terrific as a loose man but one on one aint that great. Mooney kicked poorly today and missed opportunities. Rivers definitley has to play loose in the backline, thats when he does his best work

Great to have you back jared - you are the major steadying influence on our backline.

Remember hearing Nathan Buckley talking up Rivers's last year and saying what a huge loss he is to OUR team - he was right too.

His return will bring re-newed confidence.

He only did it three times !!!!!!!!!

Riv was our biggest loss last year injury wise. He brings structure to the backline. They looked so much more comfortable with him there, whether he beats his opponent or not, he brings that structure. Thats what makes him so important to this team. People walk taller with him there. Carroll looked like he had 1000 kgs lifted from his shoulders today. It was nice to see!

Good luck for the rest of the year Riv.

I had forgotten just how good this guy is. I'm a believer again. Welcome back Jared.

There were some rusty moments though. The dropped mark on the wing was a little bit embarressing.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.

    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.
