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.

    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.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
