Have worked out how to do an audio broadcast commentary, time to find out that commentating is just like playing and that I've got no aptitude for either. Should be less chance of broken bones this wa

I've secured a little midfield grunt and an outside, roving, tip rat of a forward. Hoping a couple of old team mates from the Shanghai Tigers days get along as well.

Looks like we've got a healthy squad.

First injured (and that won't take long) assumes coaching duties for the remainder of the afternoon.

Just don't try to drag me.

Rollo, as always, great work.

Good job yourself, mate.

I haven't properly tested this yet, but if it works live commentary (of varying quality) should be available via http://mixlr.com/supermercado/ from about 10.20am. No doubt this 'revolutionary technology' will fail miserably.

In preparation for the big call I've been at NAB Footify FM school with Hamish McLachlan. He's taught me to do Weekend At Bernies references at every available opportunity.

Welcome to my world, super...

We organisers are like umpires...

If it all works out, nobody will notice...

But if it goes wrong, you will never hear the end of it... :lol:

Warm regards,

grimes4 is a chance to play... :blink:

haven't seen him for three seasons...

would say he was the most talented player we have ever had...

but each time he brought along a big hairy mate who dominated...

would love to see them strut their stuff again so you can decide...

Sorry, mad, I missed this post.

This could be the last season for many of the core group of players who have dominated forum footy since 2007.

Sorry you can't play alongside them one last time.

Hope thet players like you and DeeM will not have to be too patient during the rebuild.

Regards,

rollo

putting rollo2 in charge of the bench...

is like putting a terrorist in charge of the fertiliser... :blink:

he has played one season too many and is recovering from a serious back injury...

I need all players and helpers to physically restrain him from donning the boots and stepping over the white line...

If the "confirmed" numbers are anything to go by, looks like we should have enough players to be able keep a fast paced, quick moving game plan alive.

What are the numbers like for our opposition? Any idea what they have enlisted?

Hey, steve...

bomberblitz have the most talented organiser around...

his name is scotty21, and he guarantees lots of numbers and a contest...

saw a recent post on bomberblitz where scotty21 said something like "don't worry, melbourne will be there"...

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 11th December 2024

    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
