The Melbourne Football Club represents a lot of members and supporters. And all what most supporters and members want is unity for their club and it's players. So when things get tough like they did after last weekends horrendous loss, the club faced a critical time in it's history.

Supporters-a-like were devastated. It since has contributed to the removal of our CEO. More uncertainty may or may not eventuate at levels within the club - but all anyone and everyone wants is for this club to become strong and unite!

On the day that marks more access to Gosch's Paddock, two D'Land members had thought it would be good to get behind the players and club at a Friday training session and called to arms for help. To lend support.

The call all week since the round 2 loss has been to stick together. Over 200 took some time out to lend some support. After two major losses and a season seemingly shot, the support came in spades, and with it noise. It may have been a short sharp session, but the players appreciated it. And in it's time of need it might just mean something significant and something we may see more of....

US President John F Kennedy delivered his only only inaugral at 12:51 Friday, January 20, 1961

it included the following:-

" And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country."

And so we should ask not what our club can do for us but what can we do for our club in these testing times.

I will be there until the end and so will the group thats going with me.

When Harold went swimming, did he reach this island?

But seriously and to bring the thread back on topic, well done to everyone who made the paddock.

    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.

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)
