News today that Brett Lovett and Sandringham have parted ways.

Lovett has a good reputation as a coach at VFL level and it will be interesting to see if we snap him up if Brad Gotch isn't reappointed at Casey.

(yes, I'm aware he's Garry Lyon's brother in law).

Looks like we had our eye on Dale Tapping from Sandringham Dragons as our final development coach, but Collingwood beat us to the punch.

Lovett would be a good acquisition.

Lovett has made it clear that he is only interested in part time coaching

Hence he said he would not (re)apply for the Sandy job which now must be a full-time position (as dictatated by StKFC)

Maybe Football Director then?

Garry has to get someone if he doesn't want to keep doing it...

Ill ask it as someone will. Could he do it ? or would the rabble cry another job for the boys ?

I now only want the best man for each job. he might be it.. who knows..thats the question.

Why would Lovett having knocked back a full time job at Sandy then take one up at Melbourne ?

'One of the boys' has to do that job.

The Football Director is the board member with an ear to everyone who knows all the dirty laundry.

It is most definitely a 'job for the boys.'

This guy sounds pretty good,

I think we can say what the Neeld assistant mould is.... young, experienced with juniors/TAC cup good communicator ect and more than anything probably people who will rely on him and his word/strategy

Nicol completes our new coaching team. This now makes us the most coaches in/for any team. We retained our development coaches as well.Go Dees - now up to our list management and recruiting staff to get the cattle to coach.

Hang on ... breaking News.

GWS resorts manager Gubby Allen has filed a complaint with the AFL:

"We had hoped the AFL would grant us appropriate concessions to draft coaches under the age of 50. At a minimum we expected a mini draft in which we could get more younger minds into our panel including youngster Micky M. Our plan was to build a resort at Palm Beach for our coaches so they can really get the vibe of Western Sydney much in the same way as our players are gettting its vibe at our beach resort in Cronulla.

Sadly if we are not granted further coaching funds and concessions we will have to stick with our aged coach policy and our coaching panel will have to continue staying at its Rooty Hill facility."

Gubby also responded to his critics who told him GWS's preferred high performance coach, Cliffy Young, was actually dead:

"Well lets wait and see about that, I have spoken to Andrew who has assured me its within the rules and we can have him. If not, we will look at Tom Hafey."

Yes we may need to have our quarter and three quarter time huddles at the Richmond ground

and then jog back

I read that Misson's right hand man came across from St Kilda also.

Can't remember his name.

Is he on that list?

I don't believe that Misson's assistant ended up coming.However I note it was reported both were coming. In answering your question - not on the list .

Also not stated on the list is our Ruck coach of the last two years- David Loath.

    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

    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
