I'm not a sports science or fitness expert.

I just know what the club did with Wonaeamirri earlier in the preseason, after a similar situation.

I expect they don't plan on playing him for the rest of the season

Don't risk any injuries and get a good pre-season into him?

The Lyon King was amazing last night - that sensational, prickly steel demeanour that he had as a player came through.

I had a man crush.....

but then he comes out and says he can't do the job on an ongoing basis because of his role in the media. Helllloooo!!! half the damn commentators and competition in general are conflicted up the their eyeballs. Let's see:

- McGuire - say no more

- Mick Malthouse commentates on SEN for god's sake.

- All the player managers - Pickering, Lynch etc

- Brayshaw

- Dunstall does exactly what Garry has been asked to do and it doesn't seem to hurt him.

I know he CBF doing it full time so just stick with that story I think.

Still glad he is helping out, just disso that he won't commit.

I really must be missing something here.

I know he would not play this year at AFL level.

However if he is not going to play at Casey why bring him back from the NT till Pre season starts.

And why did he play last week?

So I rang the club to be told " he was feeling a bit off after last weekends game".

What does "feeling a bit off" mean?

"He just felt a bit off"

So did 40 other players and 36000 members.

What the hell gives here?

I think it's the cringe you have that is part of what he wants get out of the club, that sweeping under the rug of issues and problems. You cannot rectify an issue without having first acknowledged there is an issue in the first place.

Mate sorry for being thick but I am not sure what you are trying to tell me?

Can you put it a little simpler

Never say never - when he gets in there, sniffs the dencorub, gets a rub down, kicks the footy.......

If it's any consolation I couldn't make much sense out of it either (acknowledging that it came from a poster who is usually pretty articulate).

Thank god Nasher I thought I had one red too many. But the problem was I had not opened the bottle

A bit off subject Old Dee, but if you havn't already done so, try a bottle of the 2009 Emblem Shiraz from our sponsor Tyrrell's Wines, Heathcote vinyard. A lovely drop and extremely good value for MFC members and supporters. The label features our Emblem, of course. Guaranteed to ease some of the pain of the last week.

Yep, quite simply you have to admit the problem before you can attend to it.. ( wasnt that hard guys !!)

    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

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
