I remember CC telling me on draft night, at a club function, before the draft that we wouldn't take Talia, but instead would take Gysberts and then Tapscott. I recall WJ and me being stunned at the news. I actually remember nearly arguing with him, but because he was telling me what Prendergast was doing I was in no position, to argue, given my limited knowledge.

If only I was the recruiting manager, I would have done better, only by using the info from Demonland and nothing else. At worst we would have Talia in our defence today and probably another midfielder instead of Gysberts or Tapscott. That is how bad Prendergast was.

It also didn't help, that when I met him a couple of times, I found him to be an arrogant, rude, pr1ck.

So are you telling us you liked him then?

Roos appeared to completely rule out the Lions job OTC tonight. Wasn't asked about us.

He not coming to the MFC so no need to worry.

You know that for a fact?

It's Demonland so I did not think facts was important here.

Not many did.

Craig Cameron might not have had great success as a recruiter but he presented himself to the supporters and often attended functions outlining the reasons for those decisions. He was always prepared to speak to Demonland/Demonology functions and our combined sponsorships raised thousands for the club.

All that stopped when Prendergast appeared on the scene. He was always too busy and I believe made himself available at the end of our final sponsorship year at a time that didn't really suit anybody and the whole thing folded.

The crowning glory of his recruiting would have to be most of the early picks of the 2008 and 2009 drafts and then, once he received the flack flick from the club he stitched us up in the tanking inquest. Mark Neeld was certainly not the greatest coach in our club's history but we can thank this bloke for providing some of the material with which he worked.

Now some narrow minds (aka Moonshadow) will consider this distasteful DC but I'm sure you will accept this advice in the spirit in which it is given. I can't actually speak for Betadine but certain , shall we say stains of a personal nature, can never be fully removed from undergarments. My best advice is to put them in a charity bin and replace with items stolen from a poorly guarded clothesline.

I don't think having dealings with Miss Palmer will help in stain removal.

    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
