"We have a powerful group of people in terms of influence, executives and business leaders and people who are high quality in all fields of industry. But we know if it comes down to money [to keep a player such as Scully from GWS] we cannot compete, but if it comes down to access to business networks and opportunity and contacts and reach, then no club can compete with Melbourne."

Interesting.

I'm going and would like to report from the function but, alas, my wife regards using the iPhone to send messages at dinner functions as rude and anti social. The report will have to wait but fear not, I'm sure if anything big happens, news will filter through.

Yeah it would be good to hear a run down. Apparently there will be a video message from jim and it will be interesting to see if Garry talks because if he does it will be worth listening to. He is one of the best public speakers.

She's right and you'll probably absorb more and enjoy it more without it.

Appreciate the effort.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
