As a couple of others have suggested, Jimmy's slogan is the best -- WHATEVER IT TAKES.

My only question is: How come those Essendon ratbags have stolen it? Seems they use it as part of their Press Conference back-drop. Absolute cheek, if you ask me!!!

MFC - Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter

When you give up hope you just become hopeless.

Not for me!

I'm happy to remain optimistic when all of you guys are giving up. In the end, when the turnaround comes, and it will, I'll celebrate proudly with the knowledge that I never gave up hope.

GO DEES!

Sadly I will probably be in the ground by then Reverend

How good would it be to have a massive heart attack 30 seconds after a one point victory over Collingwood in a grand final? That's the way to go! C'mon OD, don't just give up and lose hope. Be determined to live long enough to see the turn around. It will come my friend. Hope will keep us alive.

Firstly Crawf Can I have my heart attack on the sunday I would like a few hours of celebration mate!

Second the problem is not that I entend to go anytime soon it is more about the length of the journey that the MFC will need to make.

IMO our list is such that it is going to take a decade to get to a GF if all things go well.

In my view very few of the current list are capable of AFL standard football and the majority of the ones that are will be too old by 2024.

We are currently in the position of a new team joining the AFL in 2014. A long journey awaits.

Old dee, you're being too pessimistic. Look at how Port Adelaide have turned it around in the last 12 months both on and off the field.

I understand the cause of the pessimism and if things don't change off field then you have ever right to be concerned about the future on field. To use a cliche, there is a lot of low hanging fruit which can be plucked readily to make significant and quick improvement.

There is one big difference between us and Port LDC

The LIST

Port had a reasonable list in 2012.

We have a shocker.

I honestly believe we should not have one in 2014.

Over the last seven years we have talked the talk but have been miserable at walking the walk.

in 2014 lets achieve something that we can shout about in 2015

    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

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.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
