Yep, Nathan Jones is an outstanding young man- we are very lucky to have someone of his calibre at our club. He represents us like no other; his love of our club and his brothers is infectious.

Nice read.

Yep - It is a good read, and Jonesy is a great servant of the club.

But Nathan2jones.com????????? What a self serving piece of..

I mean really?

Obviously you're not familiar with professional athletes promoting their own brand.

It's quite a business savvy and common thing to do.

It is quite common, what would you prefer?

I don'tknow if this has been already posted, but I just jumped onto Nathan's website for a bit of gander, and he has written a very moving piece on his Tiwi experience - http://www.nathanjones.com.au/ Tiwi Times.

Our football club does a hell of a lot right these days.

It's a great read and made me feel proud to be part of this great club. The MFC is being really innovative with the way it deals with indigenous players, way ahead of the rest. We should all be proud

People like, Tiger Woods, Shane Warne, Michael Jordan, James Hird did one too, ..and then this little known kid from Frankston way, Nathan Jones.

Maybe I need to take another good look at myself?

you just let us know when you think Nathan Jones has become a good enough footballer to warrant having a website, you know, when he's as worthy as your bomber friend James Hird. Pathetic.

I think Jonesey might just be a little disappointed he didn't get a gig on our new banner for D'Land.

The Internet's not some ritzy, exclusive medium with rigid criteria. I could have a website of my own, if I wanted; and I haven't done anything more significant than making my own toast for years.

Ok ok, I get.

Melbourne players and or 'innovations' shouldn't subject to any criticism. Sorry.

Probably getting off topic now.

Anyway, how about those Dees..?

Baseless criticism? No.

Showing your true colours and they're not pretty.

What's wrong with having a URL that is actually self describing? Not self-serving at all and certainly a lot easier to remember.

Maybe a bex and a nap curry?

i was talking about the demonland poster and his right to post here and go personally slagging off our players with such little reason to do so. Shouldn't be tolerated, this is a public place.

Isn't that exactly why it should be tolerated?

Rusty is free to speak his mind, and we are all free to ridicule him for his close-minded views.

    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

    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
