Whispering Jack, you would know who the members of the seection panel are.

Can you let us know please.

We need to put some pressure on the selectors to pick realistic sides to wear the Demons jumper.

If you want a reply from someone in particular you might want to try the PM function.

Team selection is not the panacea for our ills.

Fwiw, I think our selections have been decent. You might quibble, but you're essentially arguing about who our 21st or 22nd (fit) players are.

I disagree.

We need to put a more physically strong side on the park, at least until we get some MOJO going.

I don't know how things are between assistant coaches, but I'd like to think Our current coach is not being hung out, by the rest of the selectors, for some other agenda. There's ben a lot of talk about coaches, and Not giving your coach the players he wants is an easy way to discredit him.

That's why I want to know who the selectors are.

It's never been a secret before, that they're the 'Invisable Men'.

It doesn't matter who's on the committee, anyone who's on it will just be the advisors and Dean will have the final say. This isn't the Australian Cricket team, there's one guy in charge who lives and dies by the team's on field position, so will have the final say in selection.

No, I don't know for a fact that Dean has the ultimate right of veto, but it's an absolute joke if he doesn't.

I don't think so nash, In ther old days the selectors all had a vote on who made the team, Inc' the coach.

I can't believe bailey would put his neck in the Noose, by playing such a slight and whimpish side against the more robust teams. Yes we need games into them, and I'm one of the biggest pushers of the Youth policy. But letting them go in with no physical size & lacking leadereship and direction is a recipe to get rid of the Coach.

Are you saying Bailey wants a payout. I don't think so. So the selections are a quandry. It almost feels he's being directed to coach a kindergarten team. OK against the Suns, but not against the Hawks or the Pies/ Eagles/ Cats!!!

    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 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)
