And wasn't Ricky Bobby having a dip with Richmond?

I'm surprised at how much height we want on the list. Hannath would be behind Jamar, Spencer, Gawn as rucks and Pederson and Fitzpatrick as fwd/rucks.

Maybe even with Fitz

Did I miss something with Ben 'better pickup than Mitch Clark' Hudson training with Collingwood. I thought he retired or has he done yet another about face.

Yes, he is fast becoming the John Farnham of the AFL.

He would be a rookie, so not eligible to play unless promoted. Develop him for two years at Casey. Jamar, Spencer and Jolly were all ruckman from our Rookie list.

Interesting that no former Demons are being given a shot elsewhere.

Sobering that. All the other clubs see many of our former players to be not good enough.

I guess it vindicates the FD decision to drop them... Sigh.

Why would anyone want them?

Interesting that Jurrah isn't listed at PA as well. The reports at the moment say they are going a bit cold on him and he's let himself go a bit during his extended off-season.

Well, considering he said that he was unable to commit to Football right now that's hardly surprising. Very sad situation all round, but I'm not sure how I'll feel if he does join Port after what he said to us.

I think it will also subtly reinforce the do it my way or take the highway approach by Neeld. If you want to play AFL this is your shot. Give it your best because its unlikely you will get another.

It's actually good for our club that this is happening. Forget the Gen X "oh if I don't like this job I'll just get another". Those days are gone in the AFL.

There's an article in the Hun today saying he starts training with PA today for 2 weeks with a view to a spot on the rookie list

Think it was the same article said Jurrah fronted looking like he hadn't trained since walking out of Melbourne in August

Call me selfish but I wouldn't be completely upset if he didn't make it at Port. If he is ever going to kick 5 and have MOTY it will be against us at the G. Also, whilst not knowing the details, still grumpy about him walking out on us with nary a thanks for the Clubs support or explanation as to why.

I think the 'why' is pretty obvious.....I don't think'Thank You' is part of their language......

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
