The game with the infamous pre-bounce wrestling match between Jakovich and Gayfer. Watch how the trimmed down Jako recovers to take the first mark and kick the first goal. The back problem rares its ugly head in this pre-season contest. Also contains memorable contributions from Stynes, Tingay, Rohde and others. Watch for a youthful Schwartz and Neitz, while Pike makes his debut.

Wow. Love it... a rassle and then gets up, leads, strong grab, GOAL!

Watch for the rumble at 11mins 50secs in, when Schwartz goes in to help his mate Neitz.

And gets owned.

You gotta remember, 45HG16, he was just a kid and Monkie and Ronnie were hardened campaigners. It doesn't bother me that the heavier brute ended up on top. What I admire was the willingness to fly the flag.

Sometimes you just learn things the hard way.

Remember sitting and watching this at the game and thinking our football club will never win anything while we have blokes who are more frightened of their shadows on the list and not prepared to defend their team-mates...what was McDonald thinking just after Simmonds got nailed...looks like he is asking Long if he wants a cup of tea...too many blokes who lacked the inner pit-bull....shame really.

Sadly we only had Schwarz. It was a moment when 6 or 7 MFC players needed to rush in and throw whatever weight they had around. Long shouldh've felt the full force of not only a player but of the ground. We let them bully us that day and it was a real pity.

My big concern about the current crop is Are they hard enough? Not since the Northey days have we matched teams for strength and desire for sustained periods.

Fair to say I had steam pouring out of all the pores in my body. Fuming at Michael Long, and fuming by the inaction of certain members of the team after this incident. McDonald was certainly one of them, first on the scene - it was more like he was asking Long if he wanted one scone or two. Real powder-puff stuff.

When it's a final, a GF, FFS show some anger and stick up for your teammate. Ox was fighting a lone hand.

Jeez, only watched part 1 so far but how good was Tingay? Forgot what an absolute gun he was. Shame his career was ruined through injury.

Spot on, adsy! Stay tuned for the 2nd qtr, which I hope to have up tonight, where Tingay goes to half time with 20+ possessions!

waiting for part 3. Is it up? Great to watch. Pike was good too. Phil Gilbert, always a spud.

and now, part 4

Hopgood shows some dash... Stinga continues on his merry way, Pike gives Bruce cause for adulation and a few lesser lights (Robbins & Doyle) have an impact.

    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.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    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)
