The worst is Saturday night when they read tweets out. I'm a Twitter addict, but I don't give a rats what @slapnuts75 thinks about Jamie Elliot.

There used to be a facility on Foxtel where for certain games you could watch the game with a wide angle view . You could also mute the commentary and just have the crowd noise . Essentially you could

Saturday nights have been so painful this year, first of all The Scum played most Saturday nights, on top of that we had to hear the shizen spouted by the worst commentators ever assembled. For 3/4 o

Amid all the talk of tanking and drugs it's good to hear that Sandy Roberts has left "7" for Fox where he will get back to hosting and calling football.

IMO he has been sadly missed in football and it is yet another poor decision by "7" not to recognise this and use his talent when they are crying out for quality people. They are in danger of making the same mistakes made by "9" and we can see how it led them to the brink last year.

Good to have you back Sandy.

Damn, looks like I shouldn't believe all I read in the media. Fairfax seem happy with themselves to have one over News.

'The Buz' seems to think the move is still on.

I hope so, it would be good to have Sandy back involved in the footy. A very good operator with a good sense of humour and not up himself like some others. BT, Darcy, Lynch, Lyon, Lloyd, Wilson, Healy.... not enough time for a complete list.

At least we won't have to listen to BT crapping on about the bloody "Weapon" this year. Boy oh boy wowee !

In fact, if it wasn't for BT's obsession, I'd have no idea who the "Weapon" is. Or that apparently there's a "football factory" in Geelong...

I live near Geelong and I've been searching for the "football factory" - yet to find it! I'll keep searching!

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 11th December 2024

    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
