Download the silverlight applications into your applications folder, as i have just done. And hey presto i can hear Schwabby's great speech.!!

Firstly thanks for the links, after sorting out how to recieve them , i watched all 3 speeches Twice each.

All 3 speeches were inspired. Anyone who does not fully believe in DB's ability should watch his speech VERY CAREFULLY.

He is a fine operator, i have no doubt.

2010 is going to be great, i just hope we can score a couple of early wins.

And supporters roll up to those early games. Show the club and players we have faith in the plan that is being executed.

Thanks for the Links, i wanted to attend but living a couple of hours away its not always easy. Gee we are on the right track pretty hard fault anyone or anything.

His speaking ability or his coaching ability?

Salient point.

I hope one is an indication of the other, but to be honest, we've not yet been in a position to find out.

Inspirational stuff. Everyone clearly 'on the same page', and confident that we are on the right track to deliver.

Yes we have. To do what DB has done over the past 2 years takes a lot of Guts and strength of character. You have to give him credit for that,

he could have easily cracked under the conditions he was given.

i admit 2010 will give us our first glimpse of his "real" coaching ability but i am betting he has that covered...if his players stand up

All I'm suggesting is that it's ridiculous to say that people should believe in his coaching ability becuase he gave a good speech.

Fair Comment, But i still believe after listening to that speech that DB knows exactly what he is doing.

For that matter so does Cam Schwabb.

you can be cautious of course, but sometimes you gotta belief the feelings inside ya guts.

2010 Bring it on.

the bit at the end where he said there will be a few moments this year we will be proud to be Melbourne members, I think he truly believes it and so do I. I don't think we will get higher than say 10th at best but I'm sure at one or two stages in the year we will upset a highly rated side and make everyone notice. Please be the Pies.

Our Biggest Problem is going to be in the Ruck.

As for the rest of the ground, the excuses are over. The Team must go out there and match it with the best.

No one believed The New Orleans Saints could win the Super Bowl yesterday-but they did it.

That is the kind of attitude that Bailey and the club must expect from all players.

New Orleans won their first Grail in 43 years of existance yesterday-Nobody picked them.

There is one thing going for the MFC right now...We have some good players in our side....& nobody out there rates them

On the back of a wily old fox as a coach.

He took some good risks and the players didn't die wondering.

Thats what i hope DB does. Kevin Sheedy has done very well out of that philosophy.

I think that's a reason DB wants players to play in multiple positions-keep the opponent 2nd Guessing.

Agreed. Not only does Bails' plan keep the opposition guessing but creates resilience in our players, to be adaptable, flexible and ready for any challenge thrown at them.

Wish I could have been there at this year's AGM to see the speeches but unfortunately I have moved interstate.

Go Dees in 2010!

    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

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    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.
