After AFL experience and bodies.

Denied games over with Wellingham. Denies interest in Knights or Reilly and sidestepped a proper answer on a few others.

Important to get players who can play Neeld's game plan.

Happy with the core group and wants to bring players who can assist or compete with current players and then will make decisions on list.

Aaron Davey to be at Melbourne next year.

Simple one with Viney, will make decision based on what the other 2 clubs do and comes down to the day. Denies denying they have decided!

Heard most of it... Usual stuff, but my impressions were this:

-Was very diplomatic about Dawes, got the impression that's a done deal

-Was VERRRRRRY keen on Caddy, gut feel is we may force him to us via trade with GC

-Subtlely hinted that Viney would be back at MFC after 2 years if GC or GWS go after him

Viney is almost certain to go to the Suns if they bid for him!

They did sow the seeds of letting him go, with him turning back and coming here in 2 years.

Let's see who blinks first.

These two items are the crux of our play to get JV with the second round. I.e. Let Jack go through and we'll use pick 13 on Caddy (a better deal than most other suitors can afford)...

Saints have pick 12 (and possibly 13 for Goddard)

And if GC let JV through then we can make sure Saints use pick 12 on Caddy (which would make GC happy).

But we have GC boy Petterd to sweeten a deal if needed.

Haha yeah so it would be Caddy for either:

-Pick 13

or

-Petterd plus pick 4

Lol

We don't have to actually want Caddy or even take him, we just need GC to think we might, sufficiently to let JV through to second round.

I don't particularly like Caddy from the accounts I've heard, but keen to have two top 5 picks PLUS JV...

Stuie? Now the time Mate. If they want Viney the have to grab him. Dawes will be a done deal. No other team would want Dawes. Having said all that who knows..maybe he can be the "transformer" and we sure need some toughness.

Yeah I think Dawes would be a decent pick up as long as we don't have to give up much trade wise and Collingwood pay half his contract.

What are you talking about? Since when does 13 plus a sweetener ( Petterd ) become 4 plus Petterd.

It was a joke mate. Have another look and see if you get it.

    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.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    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)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership.
