It has been mentioned a few times here that it iritates us to hear that the players have "learned" after a loss.

Cale Morton tweeted yesterday " Have learnt a fair bit individually so far this week from the loss to WC. Hopefully its a turning point for us moving forward".

I took the opportunity and tweeted back to him - "you havent learned anything. You have only heard. How you play going forward will dictate whether you have learned or not"

To my surprise I got a reply !

"thats a good point . I may claim that off you haha."

Lets hope what he has heard this week translates into a learning that we can all see.

I resemble that remark !!!! ( its a tweet not a twit ).

I just thought it interesting that we constantly hear the boys say what they have learned.

When you keep doing the same thing contrary to what instructions you are given you have obviously not learned anything.

I thought i would "constructively" vent to Cale Morton when he declared that he has learned.

Beautifully trumped Nutbean!

Love the sarcastic way you added the word "learned" numerous times in tha tpost too. Mr Belzebub59, our resident Elnglish professor, would be ripping ones hair out reading your grammatically incorrect posts!

Beg to disagree.

Knowing how to do something is one thing. Knowing how to repeatedly do it under all circumstances and with consistency takes time. Otherwise known as experience.

You wasted 30 valuable seconds of his time that he could have spent running or handballing or saying no to pies and chips.

Nutbean, I am blaming you personally if he doesn't get a BOG this week.

Any chance he'll learn he is looking like perfect trade bait unless he learns there is no place for wide receivers who have no appetite for the physical contest? Talent plus guts equals footballer.

This kind of logic always astounds me. There's "no place for wide receivers", so they're "perfect trade bait". Which opposition clubs are going to be queuing up for players there's no place for?!

N

One of the reasons, but not the only one, that trades occur is because the recipient thinks they can use the skill set better. We are overstocked soft and under stock hard. Surely we'd get better than the late picks we got for Cheney. Still on GWS wish list with any luck.

gws for a 3rd rnd ? lol :unsure:

seriously though... it becomes hard... Still pies took Buckley !!

Would be good if every time he felt he had something to tweet, he stopped and instead had something to EAT!!!

Eat up .... Don't Tweet up!

But having said that, Once you tweet, you will repeat!

Go Dees!

    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.

    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.

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.
