He wasn't on the 'permission to train list' from memory, but then again, I'm not sure how often this is updated by the AFL or if you can simply add players given clearance on a daily basis.

Regardless, I don't think we need him.

Ha! When i first Joined Demonland Kane Tenace was the "Buzz" Player we had to have....Now he can't even be collected from the nature strip as hard rrubbish!!

Who would want the Recruiters Jobs-Bloody Nightmare isn't it.....I Pray that BP & Tim Harrington & co get it "mostly" right on the 26th....

Can't kick can't get it enough.

Gets it enough sometimes but then again, anyone with the merest modicum of ability is going to get his hands on the footy going around with those Geelong blokes. Doesn't do enough with his kicks which lack precision and depth and I really think he would flounder and possibly end up a major league list clogger with us.

Is it too optimistic to hope that if Tenace is training with the Demons it is as a some kind of cautionary tale?

- High draft pick doesn't not equal guaranteed success.

- Failure to improve skills does equal delisting.

I have seen much worse than Tenace play at AFL level. He is alright, but I really cannot see him addressing a need for the MFC. He has less of an upside than Simon Buckley who was let go, signing Tenace would make no sense.

How does he have less upside than Simon Buckley?

In my mind they might as well be the same player; though I admit I've seen a lot less of Tenace than Buckley.

If I ever see another post with the word 'thoughts?' as the first, last or the only word in your case...

"I'll rip your bloody arms off!"

(With apologies to Auntie Jack).

Maxi Bob. Thankyou for your contribution to the thread and your 'thoughts'...

.....on Kane Tenace.

Tenace is quick. Scully is quicker. That's my contribution. ;)

Very similar.

Quick, flaky disposal and decision making skills with questionable defensive capability.

The other issue with Buckley is any linger groin problems (The fact that he has been pictured in a NM training guernsey) does not mitigate that issue.

thoughts?

That your mail has proven to be very reliable - perhaps Demonland deegirl?

A fringe player in a champion team is not necessarily a dud and it's facile to assert that. He's potentially a pretty good player, but it's very hard to break into that midfield. He's excctly the right age and he has pace, which when I look at our 2010 best 22 even with Brock gone and Ball not arriving, is a problem.

Look at Farren Ray, he made a significant contribution at St.Kilda. I think Tenace could add value.

In the long run the problem is that we're aiming to be the next Geelong so that would see him at the fringes and Ray failed in the GF. But there's the possibility that he becomes a more effective player in his late 20s.

I'm definitely interested.

I can't believe people are actually interested in Kane Tenace.

Kane Tenace...

Come on, now. Tenace was on their list before they became a powerhouse, and he failed to do anything of note then either.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
