Hopefully a lesson for anyone who read too much into the Jarman comments.

Great news though.

Nathan Jones has been immense this year, and the ones who stand up week in, week out when the team is getting thumped are worth their weight in gold.

Howe has been good this year, and if he had kicked straight it would have taken his season to another level. As I have said in the past, I am convinced he is not actually a bad kick, just has his confidence shot when lining up for goal at the moment, and hopefully it will come around.

Wow that actually is good news. I wonder how much Howe is on. On output ATM you'd give him around 250,000 but on the potential of becoming something great and stopping other clubs from poaching him you have wonder what we're paying him.

Jones deserves every cent, Howe's could be stock with incentives.

Great news.

Jones should win our B&F this year and Howe brings members through the gates.

I thought that they were both fantastic today. Really pleased that Howe finally made a set shot!

Thank Christ.

If either of these guys were to leave, we would have been dead in the water.

Hopefully Chunk is on a significant pay rise!

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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

    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.

    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
