I had a water-proof jacket and fortunately a rug. The rug was the savour. Concur with everything you've noted, Scoop.

Steve Johnson has been cited for dropping his knee into Jones chest.

Not good for my Dreamteam but if he doesn't get a week I'll be amazed. Maybe I should prepare myself...

Cant stand Johnson as a player or person.

What an arrogant smug little plick.

Hope he gets suspended again.

I would love to see him running around in an MFC jumper.

im gonna cop some flack but here goes

under the coaching of DB, I had a discussion with a friend about Davey, I said he didn't want to play footy and was going on the ground for the sake of it

MN arrives and my friend expressed the thought that he would come good under a new coach and his best would reappear,

and now under yet another coach, its the same old AD, no heart whatsoever. forget the conditions , the team structure,age, and any other excuse, this man for some unknown reason , doesn't want to play football anymore

on the weekend , high and dry I might add.my geelong mates were very honest to say what they thought of our team, some good things some bad , but from the very start there was one demon not willing to be part of the game.in the first 10 minutes there were chances to run up from hf and be an extra at the ball, he didn't want to do it .he came off the ground at times not even puffing or showing signs of being involved.unfortunately ive seen this behaviour for 3 years and its not changed,were meant to be starting a new era and the group must be devastated to see a wonderful talent completely finished and not even showing a glimpse, it was very sad

I love Steve as a player, don't know him as a person. I find him the most entertaining player in the game to watch.

Interesting that on Saturday we had a inferior side to the infamous 2011 team and lost by 11 goals

compared to 31.

If only they had stuck to their decision on CS.

What might be the position now?

We will never know but I believe the main reason we are were we are to day goes back to the first half of 2011.

I went yesterday

The only positive is that I didn't catch pneumonia.

With dedication like yours, Scoop, I presume you ventured out on the Highway again yesterday to attend the Scorps game at the Avalon Airport Oval ,again in the rain.

Did you remember the poncho this time?

I'm ashamed I didn't make the trip to Kardinia Park.My excuses were:- 1/ Worried I'd fall asleep driving after being up till 3.30 watching the Test.

2/ No- one I rang wanted to go with me. 3/The amateurs team i support were playing at home in a vital game.

BUT.....in the back of my mind I remembered the games down there in '06 and '07 for thrilling draw and a one point win. I'll never forget the joy of the train trip home those days. If you don't go to games where you expect to lose, you'll never have that terrific feeling of the surprise victory.

I went down early last year partly to see Jack Vineys first reserves game, but he was pole axed before I got there!

ps. Sometimes pneumonia takes a few days to develop!

    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.
