Have we just witnessed a "Watershed moment?"

After he won the 2007 Norm Smith medal, Steve Johnson said "We cannot rest on our morals."

Sage words. Most people's morals are far too flimsy for that.

I've got one.

It really grinds my gears when people start doing a Hutchy/Caro "it's a bad call/good call" rip-off.

It sounds dumb when they say it, so how do you think is reads on here?

The king of them all, and the bastion of moronic supporters everywhere: accepting mediocrity.

thats the one that gets me, accepting crap and making excuses

The thing I hate the most is when the media or anyone for that matter talk about players in plurals, the Sylvia's, Green's, Watt's, Davey's have to start....... blah blah blah. There is only one each of these player's why talk as if there are 3-4. Gary Ayres and Tony Shaw are the worst at it but heaps of "experts" do it, It give's me the shits.

To borrow a line from Peter Griffin "This really grinds my gears". The use of the word ELITE in football circles also grinds em.

What will be our "season defining game" in 2012?

It will be when several of the boys "have a break-out game".

Yeah footy commentators are big into hyperbole.

A team is either Elite or Insipid! doesnt seem to be much middle ground!

'Under the pump!' Wtf does that mean?

When sailing ships of yore were in a storm and taking on water the crew would man the pumps (manual) to prevent the ship from sinking. So to be under the pump was to be under extreme pressure and in dire straits.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 12th February 2025

    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

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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
