Bruce has nothing to apologize for, I'd like to say thankyou for your service, on your game you were a Rolls Royce (damn that bump by Pickett). Further to that, sorry about some of the short memories around here, (allthough if I was a player I'd never read a club forum) I'm glad you got yourself a two year deal you deserve it.

Bump by Pickett?

I appreciate your work in Kenya, but let's stick to what we are good at, hmmm?

It was Guerra, and it was a tackle.

He may deserve a two year deal, but not from the Demons.

We are trying to win a flag.

He isn't, and never was, Flag Core under Bailey.

Does this guy barrack for the Demons or Cam Bruce?

I stand corrected, of course it was Guerra, as for everything else am quite happy to say thanks for playing for the club, wasn't passing comment on whether he was or wasn't flag core! I think the club was right to stick to it's guns BTW.

America de cali...your a goose or 12y.o. posts about whether you barrack for the club or whatever, are a Pi$$ing contest thats not required here!

Overall I'd have to say many player departures seem to end up as divorces, with most people here taking a very partisan position, and like most divorces we don't really know what was going on inside the relationship. That said I like the coach, I think he acquitted himself well.

After Roll Royce efforts over the last 7 days i think that is a good description.

Both Rolls & Cameron have flaws in their gameplan, and the MFC made the right call.

I am not saying Bailey has lost the players. But it is naïve to think that this is not a danger for all coaches. It happens all the time. (Particularly to underperforming coaches with anonymous playing records. Look at Jeff Gieschen.)

You are right on one thing though – the players are not stupid and the older ones in particular will remember playing for a coach who tanked and also how it ended for their mates White, Robertson and Bruce et al. They will not want to see this happen to them.

Since when to the likes of Scully, Trengove, Watts and co. give a toss about the last failed MFC era. These guys are playing to make their own history. How do you reckon they'd feel if the club kept a bunch of overpaid senior players on the list at the expense of playing the youth. I know what I'd do I'd have my manager look around for a club that was serious about winning. Grow up Fat Boy and smell the roses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    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.
