Hi Guys, for my first ever post I will pass on some inside information. Chris Dawes has no long term medical issues. When injured, he is the most dedicated, determined and professional player in term

Please god do not give up anything more then a 3rd rounder for Dawes. If Martin/Pick 13/Gysberts are on the table here I will have a fit.

The pies will want pick 13 for him no doubt. Definitely overs. 13 & Petterd for Dawes & Goldsack, now we are talking.

I can't see the filth having any interest in Stefan Martin if they've just added Lynch and Tippett to their ranks.

I am very happy with this. I think Dawes will be a good pick up. He will be on the "smaller" contract that he took to stay at the Pies compared to what we were willing to pay last year. So it's not like we are paying out $700 for him. Not to mention we have had Davey, Moloney, etc on big contracts and they havent produced much.

One of my mates spoke directly to Dawes and he said he has struggled as we all know since getting the role as the 2nd ruckman. He said by the time he goes to the forward line he is stuffed and out of breath compared to the previous years when he was just a full forward. At the Dees he wont need to be the 2nd ruckman thanks to Jamar, Mitchy, Martin, Gawn and maybe Grundy if we get him.

If its Martin for Dawes, just hang on to Martin. Please...

It would probably have to be only a pick though because with Lynch and (reportedly) Tippett, their salary cap would be tighter than Johnny Rottens jeans.

I like the idea of getting Dawes. His currency is at its lowest point now and I think would still have a lot of great footy ahead of him. In contrast to Stef Martin whose currency is probably not going to get any higher, and who I can't see turning into a great player (as much as I admire his efforts).

Tim Harrington on Trade Radio gave a VERY diplomatic answer about Dawes that to me seemed to sound like we were after him.

I think we're after anybody that wants to play for us. I would be very disappointed to lose Martin.

Dawes > Martin.

Leigh Brown and Mark Neeld might be just what big Chris needs to return to peak form. Only a year older than Jack Watts.

1.5 million over 4 years. Do it!

Martin is better than Dawes.

hahaaha

yeah Martin is totally better than a 24 year old key forward who kicked a combined 57 goals and took a combined 200 marks in Collingwoods two grand final years

what a joke

Martin is nothing, he has done nothing at AFL level and never will.

Dawes will be the perfect support for Mitch inside forward 50. I hope we land him.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    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

    TRAINING: Monday 13th January 2025

    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
