I'll tape the programme but could someone please post after the event the exact time it was on so that I can fast forward through the usual drivel including Sam's vomitous behaviour and Trevor's pitiful attempts to be funny.

Anyone who missed it shouldnt be too disappointed. Basic wrap-up:

The McNamee interview was about what you'd expect. Said he felt he didnt have time to achieve what he wanted to, and that when the new board were appointed he suddenly had to conform to a vision that was completely at odds with the one that got him the CEO position in the first place. Said he saw no problem with his trip to Wimbledon or with his attempt to lure Jonathon Brown to the club- Brown was on the panel and said he knew nothing about it. Didn't seem bitter about his treatment- Hutchy tried to goad him into criticizing Chris Connolly, but he didnt take the bait, just said that Connolly obviously had a very different idea about managing the list to himself, but that he (Connolly) had great passion for the club. All pretty boring and predictable, really.

The only thing remotely of interest came at the start of the show; Newman asked Garry Lyon about Melbourne pulling out of the Bubbledome and Lyon seemed to have his doubts that this was the case. Still, he didnt categorically deny it either.

No Stynes interview, and we didn't really hear anything new.

Good sum up.

Interesting to see a Dees fan offer up a Volvo for JB :lol::rolleyes:

The imbecile who posted that on Demonology just fessed up to lying about it.

Par for the course.

End of story.

I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but last night on the footy show Hutchy interviewed McNamee, and asked him about getting J Brown. When Hutchy asked him something like 'Why do you want him', McNamee's only answer was 'Why not?'. I reckon this just shows how little he knows about football. He didn't seem to care about the cost of him, or really justify his want for Brown.

Can't believe what you read there.

Agree, very little about football and the costs associated, short and long term.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
