Chris Connolly was on the TAC show today and mentioned that tomorrow's game will be the first time these four will have played with each other. This sort of crept up without much discussion but whether we win or lose it's going to be great watching this quintessential quartet develop together. What's so great about them is that each one is completely different and their strengths compliment each other, throw Grimes in as well and you have the basis of a great midfield for over a decade.

Exciting times!!

Some chance of the rainman consecutive numbers 1-10 playing this week.

We've been close recently.

he also talked about jack fitzpatrick and said he will be a champion of the club.

lets hope so!!

Yeah, heard that as well. Interesting that he highlighted a kid who is currently learning his craft for Casey 2nd's, the FD must really rate him.

His comments about Watts was also interesting. Basically he was asked how Watts' attitude with training compared to Scully and Trengove and he replied that he is learning how to train hard. He then went on to say that it was hard to compare him to those two because their attitude is exceptional and they're pretty much already leaders around the club, they want to win a premiership and they won't except anything but the best from the other players.

The Fitzpatrick comment was interesting.

He was super confident making that statement.

Would be good if it comes true.

Big call if you ask me.

His kicking is very suspect IMO, particularly if he is to become a forward.

Watch for somebody to think that means "Jack Watts' attitude is terrible and he has no leadership ability around the club, he doesn't want to win a premiership and is happy to accept anything from other players."

What I'd like to see today is for Dees to show as much faith in their young players as Richmond, Freo & Essendon have and have at least 3 of these 4 on the ball at all times during the game. No chance of it happening, but I'd like to see it.

    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.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
