Go and read what you wrote.

I'm not going to go into the rest of it - it is pointless. i too write stuff when I am angry and it is never a good idea.

I re-read it once and replied to your venting of frustration toward my posts.

That seems to be all it was, as next to nothing you were accusing me of saying was accurate.

"To see the change physically in his body and confidence. Within a six to eight-week period of when he got here, (the change) was dramatic, he's just come on. He was like a new recruit when he got here. Seriously he was skinny."

Rates him as what. I lloked for some praise in that quote and couldn't find any.

You can only put on a very small amount of muscle in 6-8 weeks. You can cut (a bit), which combined with a small amount of muscle growth can make you appear different, but in reality there wouldn't be much muscle gain.

I wonder if the attitude has changed substantially.

:) The article is entitled "Kangas on the Climb - Nth Melb captain Andrew Swallow rates the young guns"..... he just gives comments on about 10 young players on where they're at, Binman.

Any Boomer-esque comments?

Such a shock that a skipper rates his new recruits. I could see our co jacks coming out and saying "that bloke um .... what's his name Pedo or something? Yeah he is a A grade spud"

Wait for the backlash if moloney wins a b&f, rivers gets an all Australian, Gysberts and petered play finals and pederson can't get a touch.

With bail?

Please explain.

Same social group.

Good friends, once upon a time.

Bail challenged Gys at training to lift his game.

Gys told him where to go.

Tension ever since - got quite willing at times.

Yeah, but what is the chances of that happening?

Moloney was not buying in and we wish him well for his 8 years service, Rivers spent a decade at the club and deserved to go and find some glory in his last couple of years, and Gysberts was a skinny kid who wouldn't pull his finger out.

Neeld had enough trouble with trying to get the best out of his most talented players - he doesn't need to waste time on periphery project players like Martin, Morton and Gysberts.

Yes true, i was just being facetious.

However rates the the young guns doesn't necessarily mean he thinks they're any good and to be honest he seemed to be damning the Gys with faint praise - he was unbelievably skinny when he arrived, which really is largely (if not entirely) his fault.

Comments like he has come on dramatically smack a bit of a backhanded compliment and compared to his more effusive praise of other new recruits (he's hard at it, etc etc) a bit on the not so enthusiastic part of the how i rate my new team mate spectrum.

But to be honest i hope he does make it as an AFL player and that North can help him achieve that. Unlike some i would not see that as a knock on our development program. Footy is littered with people who have seized second chances and turned their attitude around.

I think in the interests of privacy, we need to be careful about mentioning names or innocent parties.

The fallout was mainly due to Bail challenging Gys to train the Neeld way and Gys resisted.

That is all.

Agree. Need to be mindful of privacy guys.

    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

    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

    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
