Interesting to note that Jobe Watson only played 13 games in his first 3 years at the club.

Trenners (as noted in the latest article on MFC website) has so far played 47 games in his first 3 years and at times has played some damn good football.

And Trenners cops a lot of flack from many demonlanders on here.

I think taking this into account Trenners is really on the right path.

I'm not saying he will ever win a brownlow I'm just saying that in comparison to Jobe at the same point of their careers he is leaps and bounds ahead. The kid will make it.

Jobe Watson likely would not not have been drafted by anyone if he didn't have a famous football father. Was too slow and lacked basic skills. Could barely kick the ball when first recruited. The Bombers were very patient with him due to his pedigree and gave him time. But full credit to him for rising to the challenge and working bloody hard to make himself a real champion.

Als congrats to Nathan Jones for being our best performer in the Brownlow. Another example of hard work and perseverance.

spot on Mate, and most are Hawthorn Supporters so i really want the Swans to POUND THEM on Saturday.

After '87 i do not understand how you can cheer for those putrid stains that cover their jumper.

It is a complex store wyl.

one element is that I look at Hawthorn and see everything that the MFC is not

And should be.

I admire 40 years in excellence of results.

I dearly wish we Played like Hawthorn both on and off the field.

They play to win and take no prisoners.

I wish we were hated by the other fans like they are.

Slip on Red and blue jumpers and there is my dream team.

Maybe sad but that is the way I see them.

Hope that explains a little.

PS they are even coached by a Dee.

How bloody sad is that?

understood & i agree. But i can never cheer them. I just can't. But i do wish our club would learn from them, as they learnt from us in the 50's.

    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.
