Will be very interesting to her the shite that gets dribbled. :P

Probably unfair considering these blokes will have been sent out to fly the flag for the club.

Still I partially agree and in that I really don't want to hear too much more from the players or coach at the moment.

I was joking, hence the :P

I gather they will be on for the telethon thing for membership.

But I'm sure we will hear, structures, let down, blah blah blah

This better be good because my eyes are already bleeding after watching 5 minutes of this show.

Goddamn that's some crap TV!

Watts looks more comfortable infront of the camera than Green.

And he's not afraid to show a sense of humour!

Watts spoke well, Green towed the company line (even when being heavily pushed into cracking a joke about Gary coaching the club). Basically said everything we've already heard, just live.

Watts is too young for me to say this, but I'd hit that :unsure: *shameful*

Also that segment was hardly worth me watching a whole 15 minutes of The Footy Show. Worst.Show.Ever.

Brad is not comfortable in front of a camera, he wants to be. But it is just not in him i do not think.

He wants it too much.

Desperately trying to be relaxed rarely works.

And he was cringeworthy on the 5th Quarter last weekend.

You're being very harsh on him I think.

He's only just become captain, give him a chance.

He has been at the club since 2000, and was not even in the leadership group 2 years ago...i am concerned that Greeny is not a leader, and should just play footy.

Being Captain is a huge job, you must be mentally tough as do it. It's not a slur, i am just concerned.

I'm not passing judgment on Green's ability to be captain.

He is just poor infront of a camera.

Well he was voted by his peers to be the best possible replacement for Junior.

The FD wouldn't have given him the job if they doubted his ability.

Cometh the man.....Leaders are not made, it is in the DNA...so let's see what Greeny is made of.

I miss his courage on the field this year, it is like he has become a different person, we need him to fire as a player, worry about the captaincy later.

The important thing was they were out there fronting the media, pushing our barrow to get more members.

Does it really matter if they were asked entirely predictable answers and gave corresponding answers? Some people complain we dont get enough airtime on the various footy shows around, and yet when we do people complain they dont tell us anything we dont already know!

Its probably the first time Watts has been on and fronted up to a TV programme since the hulllabaloo after he was drafted died down, so its good to see the club is not hiding him away.

No problem with Jack Watt's he was comfortable, but i can feel Brad's pain when that red light goes on...Would have taken balls to do it though, so i do acknowledge that.

Agree with this DD. Damned if you do, damned if you don't....

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
