I know there are 1000 of these threads but I couldn't find one for me to post in, so I created another. Demonland has become quite depressing and boring so what do you think would our lineup be with everyone fit and firing for round 1, 2012?

HB: Grimes - Rivers - Tapscott

C: J-Tren - Scully - Davey

HF: Sylvia - Watts - Howe

FF: Petterd - Green - Jurrah

HB: Grimes Rivers Gysberts

C: Trengove Scully(?) Davey

HF: Petterd Watts Sylvia

F: Wonaeamirri Jurrah Martin

Foll: Jamar Moloney Jones

Inter: McKenzie, Maric, Bail, Howe

Emergencis (extended)

Gawn, Nicholson, Blease, Strauss, Jetta, Warnock.

So, my obviously personal preferences are that I still like Bartram, see Jurrah mostly close to goal, and think that Maric, Bail and Howe are all going to develop nicely. Also, I still have faith in Warnock - such an unfortunate position, to be an 'essential' player but also 'fourth in line' for their position.

I'm losing faith in Bennell, think Bate is done and Dunn is 'bait. Still willing to give Morton a bit more time. Joel Mac keeps having brain farts which undermine his value as an experienced hand in defence, which is why he isn't in there.

Things I notice, structurally, is a lack of quality kickers in defence (Davey swinging to HB?) and the lack of a 'true' full forward (SHOCK INSIGHT!).

No. Just no.

NOTE : I am worried about the future of both Scully and Sylvia. Obviously both would be in our best 22 if they are around in 2012. As much I would hate to do so, I reckon Howe and McKenzie would come out of the 22 for Scully and Sylvia. I might have to have a rethink - Jordie is a must in our best 22.

If you include Tapscott that might somewhat address the kicking deficiency off the backline. Assume it was an oversight that you left him out?

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    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. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. 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
