The Peter Jackson Appreciation Thread



Recommended Posts

I cant fault his work so far. I hope he sticks around to extend Roos' contract. He has got more done in 4 months than most of the rest had done in 4 yrs.

That is, everything he has touched so far is turning to gold.

Correction DeeVoted!

A decade

Peter Jackson you are the balls of this club!

You are this clubs testosterone!

Even if you leave in the next 1-2 years you will always be a demon messiah.

Thanks PJ!

It's funny that after (I think it was) the 148 point to Essendon, some fans on here and other websites were making "Get Paul Roos at any cost" style cries.

Not in a million years, I thought. The guy is not interested in coaching, period, let alone a basket case like the MFC>

But PJ has done the impossible in a matter of months.

Incredible.

He has made an incredible difference - enter, identify weaknesses, be candid, then go like blazes for what we need to fix these weaknesses.

can we keep him ? :rolleyes: lol

Thanks for saving our club and putting us on a new direction

Without him I hate to think what our future would be and we wouldnt have Roos.

Very big thanks from me.

I'm not going to rehash the past forever but I would like to ask one question....

For such a 'passionate, committed Demon', there was not one mention on Cameron Schwab's Twitter feed congratulating us on getting Roosy. It just goes to show that actually helping the club is more than just words. It's actually doing something.

Oh and I'm stoked we got Roosy.

See you in Feb!

The best thing is he doesnt sit there and bang on about our club and how we are the oldest club and been around for over 150 years. He is an outsider who came in and saw a huge mess he had to clean up. Kudos to him

PJ has done more for this club in his short time he has been there than anyone else (except JS) in the last 7 years.

We are indebted to you for ever.

And wasn't it something when he got fired up about the PP.

He isn't going to lose that without a fight.

Another tick.

...and he was right on the money. We will get pick one but it looks like the angle is that we will have to trade it as long as the deal ticks the AFL boxes.

What about C Schwab he will think you no longer love him!

I have said it before and will say it again I have a Man Crush on PJ


Posted

Didn't Roos say he would play him in the back pocket?

Tough and smart.

Posted

can you imagine PJ doing something like this

so glad to see the back of this muppet

Haha what an absolute [censored] of a bloke! He would drive me mad on how much he would drible on about the club history at EVERY function! History is alright but talk about the present and the future!

Putrid bloke

Goes pretty well, this new-fangled competence thing that everybody else seems to have. Would be good to get used to it.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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. 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
