Mostly talked about a conference he's been attending. How sports reach their fan communities and where it is going in the future. Live vs delayed telecast. That sort of thing.

Brief mention of Aussie and how the club is helping him.

They asked who we're wanting to draft, which he deflected basically by saying that BP hasn't told him yet but he'll be happy to act very wise and knowing after the event.

That's pretty much it.

Summary? At work.

Very little of content, said that BP didnt give him a look into what we were drafting, talked about him being at heaps of drafts, discussion about more footy games being Free to air and some very immaterial discussion about the conference up on the goldie at the moment.

You missed nothing.

All he got from BP was a wink and a nod.

- He spoke about how good the conference was up on the Gold Coast, featuring people from the EPL and the NFL.

- All about how sports engage with the fans and supporters.

- We are leading the push into social media (I added this one myself).

You can all partly thank me for pushing twitter so hard to Schwabby & Russian, back when it was only the realm of geeks & I still had to explain to normal people what it was.

- Football should be televised live.

- Consuming the game at home is changing - bigscreen tv, internet and communicating with their mates elsewhere about the game.

- Matthew Wonaeamirri's tragic death.

- Aussie now has more responsibility on his shoulders as his father was a community leader.

- club is doing its best to support him through this.

- Ian Flack flew up north with Aussie as support.

- Cam's 25th draft.

- BP is an old fashioned recruiter that doesn't give much away, occasionally just a nod & a wink.

- Gave away nothing more.

You mean normal people are now using Twitter? Wow! and, E25 "Let the Twitter out". It's all the work of the Demon. methinks.

Normal people know what it is.

Some normal people use it.

What exactly are you saying about Schwab & Nathan Jones? That they're not normal?

Personally, I don't like it much, but it didn't take a genius to realise the power it had.

It only needed to be recognised and utilised early on in the piece. Staying ahead of the curve, they call it.

It is all the work of the demon, but at the same time, I was adamant we should have a presence and it was before the advent of either Schwab or Jones' twitter.

If I was really going to give the credit to anyone, it'd be Russell Howcroft.

He'd have been onto it well before I was.

Of course they're not normal people, E25

They're celebrities. I thought you understood that.

...the best bit for me was his admoonishment of Dr Twrf (I think) for calling us punters.....

That was Andrew Maher.

    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

    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.
