Good morning Mr Leg who are you picking for the flag?

Because I am putting the house on the other team

Its not that I selected a team, I just didn't want the Hawks to win. Enough is enough. It actually just sickens me the success they are having.

Maybe if I barrack for them next week I can bring them unstuck.

Two things wrong there

(1) you won't

(2) they will win anyway

Go Hawks!

What's going on around here?

Some of the regulars gone missing and the place distinctly lacking atmosphere.

Is there any truth in the rumour that we're trying to entice Voldemort and his glutenous old man back to the fold?

Just as I thought.

Had you picked as a closet Hawthorn supporter!

Nothing closet about me WJ

They have been my September team for most of the last fifty years.

The finals again have shown, just as we have banged on about for years, that the team that has disposal skill and works hard, wins.

We need to rid ourselves of players with poor disposal and poor work ethic.

True Red. Only problem I see with such a cunning plan is that the ones with poor disposal usually have good work ethic, and the ones (one?) with bad work ethic have good disposal.

We might need to watch a few more episodes of Blackadder to come up with a more cunning plan. Something that "Is as cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University but has moved on and is now working for the U.N. at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning".

its not just the disposal its the action with it. I couldnt help notice Hawthorn pinball disposal, always accompanied with the player giving off the ball falling back into his tackler to make space until there was enough space to make a good disposal. This tactic not only took the tackler out of the contest it often put them off balance and allowed the original player to launch themselves off that player. Very sophisticated and very effective.

As for you, your whyness, now that the Abbott interregnum has come to its end, isn't it about time you relinquished that title of yours?

Oh i don't know. I have grown attached to that little 3 letter word!! :)

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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. 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
