WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ROHAN BAIL

Recommended Posts

Was that at Ferny Grove mousey? I'm just interested because I live up the road! I saw an article in the local rag about him a few months ago talking him up as a possible AFL draftee and I must confess my first instinct was to think, "don't get your hopes up". Shows how wrong I generally am!

Yeah mate

ferny Grove Falcons.

Which i am not sure even exists any more last time i looked it was a big pile of dirt. Not sure if the storms were something to do with it

That's the very point I'm making!

Right... so ... you're saying ... because we didn't pick up any recycled players in the draft ... then that means we are tanking ..?

You know, a picture of a monkey for your avatar is quite apt...

Saw very good bios by Quigley (BF) where he not only describes upside but downside (his very personal opinion) of potential draftees - not afraid to speak his mind on some highly rated draftees.

Be warned it is very long but well worth the read

Interesting that I could not find James Strauss on Quigleys list

No joke. Our drafting was obviously directed more to a long term plan rather than a quick fix. There's no obvious attempt to cover deficiencies in the short term so we won't show much next year.

jeebus buddy your a negative prat aren't you

A much better view than the ridiculous and pathetic quip, "We've started tanking already!"

Dean is not stuffing around when he wants us to play run and carry football

This kid is a state champion cross country runner

Would be a nightmare to play on you'd just be yapping at his heels all day long

I love the fact he is singled out for his dedication also - the type of kid that might flourish now given a chance

This pick could end up being an absolute beauty I reckon

Been following Bailey,s old club Mt Gravatt and i can assure you this kid can play

Could be the SMOKEY in the whole draft

Obviously Spirit of the Demon bases his analysis on a player he knows NIL about

IMO a lump of coal that could turn into a diamond

Thanks M2W but I couldnt do it. If anyone wants to have a go PM an email address to me and I can email them thru. They are reasonable shots of him playing, one taking a big grab.

that's what I like to hear

haven't heard a bad word about this kid and the fact he is considered absolutely top shelf in terms of fitness has me excited

like it or not, that's where the game is headed and Bailey knows it

Sometimes a picture can tell a thousand words, these photos look impressive from a demon fan point of view. Thanks for the pics M2W. He can leap and take a mark, and Bail looks to be very fit (ie an endurance type player). But thats about it. Nevertheless hopefully he is a 'real find' for the club.

I think it's more that you can make a picture tell a thousand words.

He may have dropped that mark, and I can't figure what's impressive in that second photo.

Will be interested to watch this one

I agree, in that people are drawing an extremely long bow if they think that photos give away anything about his footballing ability. He looks fit, and thats about all you can say. You don't need to take the negative side though either 45. God you really are a Spurs fan.

I think the pics are good. It illustrates that the boy has decent athleticism and is able to get off the ground and the second photo shows his physique. That is it.

I for one get jack of anyone who has a go at people who provide training reports and post pictures . I appreciate the reports and shots so please ignore the negative individuals and keep posting them. Thanks m2w.

It clearly shows his face, thats all. Good for a profile photo in a record or something.

You're reading WAYYYYYY too much into it.

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
