They actually released that video and campaign well before Ablett and Thompson left.

It's just a slow news day at the Hun so they decided to run with it as a story.

It's funny now that they based their campaign on loyalty and have since had both best player and coach slip out the back door.

My guess is that it's a year 9 media student's assignment, or produced by a kid on work experience.

Great foresight then to have Scott in there as the role of the "coach" and to leave Ablett out of the video.

That has to be one of the worst membership videos I've seen. Looks like something Billy has knocked up with the local primary school. Hardly motivational.

Iirc they filmed multiple versions, leaving Ablett in & out as it was just before "The Decison 2010 II".

The inclusion of Scott must have been refilmed after Thompson dropped his bombshell.

There's a fair amount of agro around hey.

It's indeed pretty hard to realise if you didn't know that they'd filmed different versions, I don't see how (without that knowledge) I could've "realised" - you could've just stated that in your first post.

Regardless, woeful video!

oh dear :wacko:

looks more like something done for the footy show

I think that may be the feel they were going for.

It'd work just fine, if it was only intended as a short segment on the Footy Show.

Seeing as it's a vehicle to increase membership sales, it fails miserably.

Geelong is the sort of the place that will still get their quota in the end...

There was a report in the papers about the filming of the video and how they did multiple versions in case Ablett left.

I imagine the extra time was due to the need to film a different ending involving Scott.

Just add sub-titles and it would be perfect for SBS

I hope you are right.

After 2 wins in 20 years at the cattery I am looking forward to a win down there this year.

If we pull that Off We will know we have a good team on our hands.

    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.
