That the club needs unity is obvious. It's a vital ingredient for a successful club and one that's been missing at ours for a long time. On and off for nearly 50 years. Nice sentiments in the OP. I'm

I was down at Sorrento with my family today (if you see the afl story Demons escape heat at Sorrento) my family were in the background. The best way for my four boys to keep the faith in the Dees in these tough times is to meet and talk with the players. I must say Jack Trengrove and Nathan Jones were really good with my boys but the stand out again was Jak Watts he was fantastic, kicking the ball with them and posing for photos, this is really good for morale. I know about all the negative talk and feeling and frustration, I feel it too. But to boo and turn our backs on our club at this point in time what does that achieve??

I have sent and email to David Schwarz to see if he can mention the details re training on his show. I am not sure if he will? It is worth a try.

Garry Lyon might be willing to mention it on the footy show/footy classified - is that on Thursday nights? (i don't watch it)

Last days of school hols, I'll be there with my short suffering demon supporting kids! Great idea, so good to read some positivity. Details anyone?

demondame, I suggest we aim to be there around 9:30 for a listed 9:45 start to training. As it is Friday, the senior group will probably train lightly for 45 minutes or so. Some may even remain inside. However, if our numbers are impressive, word might get around that this is a training session not to be missed. The idea is to simply let the playing group know that we are a resilient bunch who will support them as they find a way to turn the season around.

Great work with the tweets. Would suggest sending one to Neil Mitchell, just for the ppl that may have missed what was mentioned on his show. Also SEN, if they have an account.

I thought this quote from Dr Who over at 'Ology very relevant to what were trying to achieve on Friday morning. It comes from the thread about the volunteer membership drive. (the underlining and bold text are mine)

"Go Dees
First & Forever

Just for the record this membership drive programme really opens your eyes to the real MFC. We have had ex-players (Stevie Powell) at our nights, Mark Neeld & Neil Craig. CS popped in and I got the chance to have a chat with him. You read so much rubbish about our club in the media - please sorry to take a Molly Meldrum quote - but "do yourself a favor" come and see the real MFC."

Ellie McKenzie is going to make sure the Training gets tweeted today, and corresponding with Burgo to get it up on website, we need a few more twitterers......Good morning to the 2 musketeers WYL and Dr Gonzo, do you think Caroline Wilson will make our efforts out to be delusional......

    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

    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
