pretty incredible.

to sum it up:

- the club has been all-spin, no action for too long

- this rebuild is genuine not spin

- we have been a drag on the competition for a long time

- we have no leaders in our club

- players have a belief that they are 'wasting their careers' at the dees

- our players need to understand that pj is pushing to undergo massive change and they need to be part of that

- our staff are young and inexperienced (football, admin, both? it wasn't made clear)

- if we are unable to interview prospective coaches due to their current engagement at their own clubs, so be it - it doesn't change the basic planning that needs to take place

- pj is in regular contact with the afl but they are NOT 'driving the car'

- the afl is now the major financier of the club

- they will have a say on the board

- they are backing pj's plan for the dees

pretty full on, i've gotta say.

everyone on the aunty panel basically says the dees are in good hands.

neeld has already had approaches for 2014 according to parko.

parko is still a season ticket holder for the dees, and says neil craig has a clear vision for the remainder of the season.

Now he's on MMM. A breath of fresh air, a serious grown up so tells it like it is and can handle the media and understand the role of hope. Listen to it on line as soon as you get the chance.

This is the most disturbing part; hopefully they have genuine faith that this time the rebuild will come to fruition and they have not become disillusioned thinking "here we go again".

Bang, bang, bang. Answers questions without the hint of prejudice or bollocks. Tells it like it is 24-7. No innuendo or half truths.....

WHY CAN'T I HAVE A BOSS LIKE THAT?

and yet almost the most encouraging aspect. Most of this is between the ears stuff. That can be addressed; It can be changed.

As an employee that is valued I would love to hear that come from a CEO.

As an employee that knows they've been on the gravy train for far too long I would be looking for a new job already on the back of those statements.

Great to see someone grab this club by the scruff of the neck at long last and shake the hell out of it.

Pity we didn't empoy him in 2008.

CS should be remembered in the same light as Waldren.

Disgraced and unemployable in this country.

Finally someone is telling us the truth!

Go PJ Go!

There must be a lot of good people around the MFC. They need to be placed in the leadership roles.

My Anger is growing at CS, DM MN and Others!

I want them to give back the Clubs money they have taken in bad faith!

    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

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
