JB and Billy were saying that DB is holding on to a story for the footy show tonight about a club who's players are unhappy. Please don't let it be us , this year has sucked enough already!

I wouldn't mind if it IS us - there are many players who have shown that they are happy by their leadership and by re-signing with the club. If they were unhappy then they wouldn't have stuck around. The ones who will be unhappy are the ones who got it easy during the Dean Bailey era and are now being asked to work much harder than they want to.

I just hate the club being portrayed by the media as some kind of dis functional circus.

We're the same as every other club.. Thinking we're above all others is what starts a disfunction in the first.

Cleaning up a mess is messy, but it's the first part of renewal. Take our medicine and keep moving onto becoming a healthy club.

The media's excessive interest in all things MFC, is it a blessing or a curse?

Curse when bad news and blessing when good news.

Why would it not be a surprise if it is us. Would make it an interesting night at the B&F. I just want this year to be over. In saying that they said it was a big melbourne club. I would like to think we are big but I hope we arent that big. Im sick of hearing stories about how the players and coach dont get on. It would be nice for another club to be in the news for other reasons. Lets hope its essendon.

My guess is Bulldogs.

Lol... Green, Moloney, Rivers, Cook, Gysberts, Davey all gone/possibly gone/or rumored... It's us.

*edit: plus Jurrah and Lawrence

If it is us, will be interesting to see Gaz's reaction, he's used the show to have a crack at the players to fire them up before, so he doesn't always defend the club as such.

I don't have a shred of sympathy for our playing group at the moment, so if it's us I'll be a little bit pissed at the players.

Anyway, my money's on Carlton.

It probably SHOULD be us, isn't that what everyone is wanting? All depends on the angle I guess, whether it's players unhappy with their coach etc or the obvious angle of the players that have left in recent times.

Thing is...

We aren't exactly exciting news. Everyone already kinda assumes that our players are not that content atm.

Why would we be newsworthy in terms of this?

Lol... You know my thing about not trusting people with hardly any posts...

I heard last week that there was some serious infighting at essendon and James hird has even offered his resignation.

I rest my case.

Same reason people slow down to look at a car crash...

.... DB is 'holding onto a story'

Heck even hutchy could figure that out some of our players are not happy, I'll admit DB ain't much higher up the food chain, but its not THAT exciting.

Wouldn't exactly be a shock would it...

    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

    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

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    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

    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

    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
