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.

Correct. Not that hard to realise hey HG

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!

agro? WHO YOU CALLING AGRO?!?!??

Are you saying I'm a muppet..?

Maybe it's all the christmass shopping putting people on edge...

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

    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.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
