have to pinch myself that we have Dom Tyson

Dont think MFC supporters realise just how good this bloke is yet, but here is a teaser

what a goal

That leaves 16 13 listed players unselected and they come with a variety of pedigrees and experience - 1st round draft picks, later picks, a whole bunch of RD picks and a couple of trades. Only 3 one neophytes and one veteran - 12 11 players who should be in their best years:

  • Byrnes, McKenzie, Dunn, Blease, Strauss, Pedersen, Magner, Nicholson, Evans, Barry, Tapscott, Jetta, Spencer, Taggert, Bail, Stark

It would be no surprise if half of them are gone at the end of 2014 but equally it would be a big disappointment if Roos and co can't find at least 4 quality role players from that group to add to the above set.

Or 20% gone within a day ...

Not a bad side IMO. A vast improvement on last round this year, and with a coach who knows what he is doing for a change, who knows what might happen.

I love how some are righting off Mark Jamar, he gets his body right he is still a mile in front of Gawn and Spencer.

Does anyone know or have heard about Jamars condition at the moment?

Posted (edited)

Agreed - we really need to get some confidence and momentum.

If its a team like the Saints its a must win but if its a good team we must stay close and never drop our heads.

Agree. I was sooo gutted after PA last year.

If I hear "we're training really well" during off season, I think I'll spew....

Kobe drools on himself and you want me to be inspired by that?

Posted

5 championship rings in the past 5 years should inspire you, drool and all. Considering we haven't won a Premeriship (championship equivalent) in almost 50 years.

15 years?

And you can win titles and still be made fun of in gifs apparently...

That was my point.

You picked the wrong gif.

Posted

I think that in time Toumpas will be a player and I too included him in my round one draft, but I reckon he'll need a massive preseason and significant improvement to step out in round 1.

mannnn you are totally doing this wrong!

You are going too deep on this, way too deep. Pull back brother, come back to me.

The Kobe reflection gif isn't a metaphor for us or our future seasons, it's what comes up in google when i type into the image search:

'thumping chest gif'.

I was making a point that it was an important game for us and we had to nail it, so wanted a "pumped gif" to reflect that. Kobe looked good, but it could have been bloody OJ Simpson for all i care, as all i wanted was someone "pumped up" to reflect me being "pumped up" for round 1.

But thanks for ruining my parade, please PM me your address. Just need to send you a bill for water damaged parade floats etc.

I'm about to post a gif to represent how i feel about this whole affair and link it into the whole "rain on my parade" joke thing i now have going, but before you look to deeply into it i just wish to inform you that i found it by searching:

'sad guy in rain gif'

And it's not a metaphor for the MFC or anything, it's just a gif to put in there to put a quirky/light spin on it. Oh and i'm not sad either, so don't look into that too deeply.

So yes, thanks for the gif analysis chat, look forward to receiving your bill.

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    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
