It is hard...you could go and get a lot of ex players to stand in line....

I think I'd go with OX! And just delete his bung knee DNA along the way and wa la.

Instant Theo X time!

Boy I'd be happy!

Well at least he shows the love for the Demons most of the time on SEN!

Unlike alot of the media.

Jakovich or the Ox in their prime.

A young Robbie Flower would also give us that outside run we are desperate for.

My old man would say Barassi hands down, but he was before my time...

Damn i used to love watching Allan Jachovich go round though, footy was a lot of fun back then. I remember watching cats and dees one day and I think jacko kicked 10 and ablett kicked 11 or 12 and I knew we were going to win all day!!! Good memories!!!

Robbie Flower in a heart beat. Outside pace, courage, sublime skill on both sides (dare I use the forbidden "e" word: elite!?!), leadership... and loved the jumper.

Pre-knee Ox. Although it would mean that Dawes doesn't get a game.

Rod Grinter. Just for one game - versus Carlton. To run through Mitch Robinson and make him even uglier than he is now. Ultimate sportgasm.

Big Ox, n Neita in their prime.

Wouldn't have minded two Nietzs running around in the early 00's - one at each end!

Noel McMahen

I shook hands with him last year and he nearly crushed it

Also I heard he still eats nails for breakfast and that he still pollishes his boots waiting for the MFC to call him

Hassa Mann (failing that, Stan Alves, Brian Dixon or Gary Hardeman).

Robbie Flower without question.

His game would transform to another level given the current changes in the current game. He would also receive protection now in what has become a heavily scrutinised game. His skills were always sublime and had the ability to play in all roles from Full Back on Mal Blight to Full Forward, HB, HF and Utility rose with Wing being his dominant position.

Barassi must have been an inspiration as well but sadly too young to see him play.

Stan Alves was the best Captain I witnessed as a supporter and was always disappointed he never coached us.

David Neitz as a power forward not far behind.

Forgot to mention Sean Wight.

ATM while our Backs are "developing" there is not a player near him for skill or tenacity. Perfect clone Job.

Wells and Brian Wilson both played "bigger". Both great hands and a had a sense of where the ball was going.

I'd have to go for Tom Wills, so he could remind everyone we played that it's "Our" game!

(otherwise R Flower or Theo X)

Schwarta pre-knee. The Wiz buzzing about. The Wrecker spear tackling. Duke Spalding at CHB. Robbie on a wing. Allen Jakovich in a pocket.

Gawd we'd win the flag by 15 goals!

    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

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)
