I am only naming them after the event. We are a cursed club. It has to change. No club in history has had to contend with what this club has been dealt this year.

Not sure that Fitzroy fans would agree with you Redleg.

They got dealt some pretty crappy hands in their last two years.

On another note , it never fails to amaze me how often we draft a player and then he is out for most of his first or second season. Just some examples recently Taggart, Gawn, Evans, Gysberts, Tapscott, Cook, Jurrah, Fitzpatrick, Spencer, Tynan etc.

How could I have forgotten the Captain- Jack Grimes.

Agreed. Didn't help that the AFL was dealing most of those cards from the bottom of the pack........

I thought he was meeting up with FaultyDet in the Phillipines.....but might have got it mixed up, lol

So, whats the chance of your mate JB getting a guernsey this week?

I am not certain on wyl, you may well be right of course he may be going to both.

If you are trying to bait me DC it works every time with N0.7

I am going to the Brisbane game with my brother who is a Gabba Member so we get to eat and sit among the upper crust of Brisbane.

It will not look very good to be seen lying on the floor in a fetal position crying.

So please No.7 at Casey this weekend.

PS Once again I forgot to use chrome!

Still think he could make it. I would play him in the FP this week in place of Flash. I would tell him if he doesn't apply a strong forward press he has no future at the club. Think that would stir him up.

I hope you're right redleg. he does have a lot of good features but so far i tend towards od's pov (though not as strongly)

I doubt there is anything that would stir him up, you cannot pull up your socks if you do not have any on Redleg

Threat of delisting may work wonders.

Every time I see Lewis Jetta play I feel sick, thinking how we could have had him as a rookie, after Neville's mum told us about him.

Surely not Daisy . He has never been a fan of the youth policy to my knowledge.

I trust that he is not involved in the drug trade either-unless as a customer.

Other than that-you would have to wear a "Kim Bradley won in Vegas " T-shirt to get locked up there surely?

I heard that Lewis shadowed Keiran Jack all pre season - has bought his fitness to elite levels.

I can't help but wonder which of our underperforming players - JB, Morts etc would lift to a surprising level given the same chance.

That is a cultural thing and Neeld and Craig are attempting to change ours. Near enough is not good enough.

Sorry Redleg no amount of fitness will cover a lack of skill and desire.

Back to WA for me.

Lets face it we are third last on the ladder 5 years into a rebuild.

We must have a number of players that are not AFL standard.

No. 7 is not on his own but in 9 weeks time 5-6 players should be for the high jump.

IMHO no7 is in the lead group

Add Tom Mcdonald.

I'm waiting for the first thread suggesting we could look at Connors.

Think it has already been suggested.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
