Still can't work out how Jimmy T is not back in the side, after his performances with Casey.

He still needs to improve his contested ball and tackling. Roos will have him working on this side of his game, he is a young player, plenty of time for him to improve at Casey. There was only 1 vacancy in the firsts and Jetta had earned that spot with his performances over many weeks. Suddenly we are building a culture where players aren't gifted easy games in the firsts, they have to earn them over and over again at Casey.

I can see the benefit of that policy. 30 plus performances in consecutive games would generally get you a gig. Maybe that is a good thing.

If he does it again this week and there is a spot for him in the seniors I am sure he will be considered next week. Roos has stopped the revolving doors and is trying to develop a team that is not scared that if they stuff up a couple of things they won't automatically be dropped.

I have faith in Roos and his men to turn us around. I think it would be helpful on a few fronts if Roos announced he was with us for at least the full 3 years and would then consider the position after that.

Just listened to Malthouse. He is cooked, without any shadow of a doubt.

If I look for a positive, it is probably that under Roos we are learning to stay in the game. Last year that would have been a 12-15 goal defeat.

We are working on the Sydney style, of defence first and it is reducing the losing margins and giving us some chance to still win games.

Can't speak for DC but I suspect Biffen has been heavily embroiled in his drug business. As for Fl og - he's probably forgotten his single digit password and unable to post.

Check those cattle Biff!! If their teats look bruised and roughly fondled they probably belong to Jazza.

You really do post some of the breast posts.

They make boobs of some posters.

Perhaps we could become bosom buddies RL!

If my information is correct then about a dozen Essendon players will be growing voluptuous breasts in the very near future. No idea how or what's making that happen.

Maybe they're onto that colostrum drug! Jazza swears by it.

    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.

    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)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
