Just spoke to Doggy at lunchtime. He is in fine nick and usual good humour.

Has 3 pups now - all boys so father & son prospects in a few years!

He says he may be going to play with Yze and Robbo up at Shepp this year - for the MFC Old Boys!!!

Was a very good Melbourne man and a nice bloke to boot. His bravery on the field was sensational. I wish him luck for the future.

I was lucky enough to sponsor Nathan for abour 3 or 4 years, great person and wonderful ambassador for the club. I've still got a couple of bottles of red wine with his photo on it, lol. I've been meaning to try to get in contact with him and pass them on

I trust that someone other than Doggy is teaching those little tackers how to kick!

I'll never forget his first game against Carlton at Optus Oval in 1998. What a debut! Pity injury ruined the next two seasons for him.

Yeah. Back then, from memory, it seemed like just about every time he ran out on the park for us, he'd be injured by game's end. But, wow, while he was out there he gave us plenty to get excited about. The guy's enthusiasm couldn't be faulted. Fear was that he'd end up getting himself killed, the way he threw himself into the fray with reckless abandon. Had to love him!

Can't say I was ever too envious of his ice bath routine, either! lol

I too have fantastic memories of that first game. It was a game that will forever be remembered. Saw doggie at the "G" last year with 2 of his boys. :lol:

Yeah it was a good look!

He was a fantastic player and very courageous.

Shame about his kicking though. :wacko:

    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

    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
