Lyon had three boys and not one of them is interested in footy, right?

I think they were just crap at it

Billy has been in our sights for quite a while but remains a speculative pick at this stage. That's my understanding. Certainly not a first rounder.

Are we going to be forced to use our first rounder on him; that is the question..

Hopefully we will have one!

I love that we follow our sons of guns but we really need to stop running down the kids or the former player.

I think Billy is developing well and I love the fact he wants to play for our basket case of a club.

We as a club should be nurturing this kid and helping him all the way from here on in like we did with JV.

Total BS.

I remember a rolling maul of constant physicality that advanced the ball 50 metres the wrong way with barely a clear possession. Blokes put in.

We were not quite there and we met a mighty team at the peak of its powers, just like in 2000.

We lost by 96 points. The Hawks ran in waves of 3 and 4. We were roundly flogged that day.

True and the only rolling maul I remember was led by Gary Ayres out of the middle, they ran right over the top of our guys who gave little to no resistance (boys against men). Maybe the post was in jest, I hope it was because they totally flogged us, it was record margin at the time for a GF which thankfully Geelong broke with there win over the Power.

Sign Billy Stretch ... he wants to play for MFC. Good enough for me.

Remember Dylan Grimes. MFC Bailey missed him when he desparately wanted to play with his brother.

And Alwyn Davey. MFC Bailey said he was too short.

Agree on all counts

What about young Max Viney

I don't know for sure oilslik but I don't think Max is as committed to AFL as his brother

I'm sure we will develop him into a fumbling,unfit and confused football player.

If I were him I would change my last name, move out of home, and say i have never heard if Steven Stretch...or just enter the draft.

But in all seriousness, love having young men who love the club from the get go. Don't know much about him but hopefully he turns out alright.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 11th December 2024

    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. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
