According to a tweet by a Melbourne player (deleted name as it doesn't appear to be public yet).

If so well done.

Long overdue.

Dean Kent goes OK for a first year player too.

Usually embargoed until tomorrow isn't it? Because it's obviously such huge news! But thanks for breaking the story _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Well earned.

Gotta feel for him having dreamed of playing for the MFC and walking into this third world [censored] storm. But he seems as well equipped as anyone to help steer the way out. It is both an indictment on the club and a credit to him that a first year player can easily be in the club's top 3-4 players, not just in terms of potential but contribution on the field as well.

All those kids with number 4 on the back should be trading them in for a number 7. If there is any future to this club, he's it.

There is an article on the AFL site that puts together an All Austrslian u23 side. For a team that has attempted to rebuild through the draft with young players it is an tragedy that we did not have one player in there.

Hopefully this years crop will start to turn it around. Viney is unlike anything we drafted under BP.

Viney, Toumpas, Terlich and Matt Jones

a pretty solid 2012 draft!

Well done Jack.

It was lovely to wake up to hear the Viney rising star nomination on this morning's radio news! This is the start of a stellar career for Viney and I predict a Brownlow Medal will follow in five years, as Ablett's star fades!

This quote from Jack in that interview really stood out for me:"As the year goes you can one of two ways. You can either sook about it and give up, or you keep fighting. For me it's an obvious answer." I just wish it was such an "obvious answer" for many of your team mates Jack!

Jack just continues to impress, impossible not to love this guy.

Very well deserved nomination and well overdue.

    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
