People still think he is never going to return?

As much as I get frustrated with those naysayers. This picture is fresh pudding.

I would like to eat the pudding for a couple of years.

I...I really butchered that idiom...

From the picture it looks as if they had to amputate his left leg. Still, maybe better off without it, but will have to learn a new kicking style. :-))

I would rather play a Mitch Clark with no legs than a Pedersen with two.

And with those 12 simple words, this site just moved from a PG to an MA15+ rating.

Good to see Mitch up and running again.
As for pre-season, I will wait and see if this leads to improved performance in the new year. I remember hearing reports of Dunn and Jetta running the tan this time last year and people on this site collectively swooning as though this meant that the boys were behind Neeld. :huh::rolleyes:

I don't remember that. I remember people saying this is exactly what they should have been doing.

I remember one game this year, Pederson missed a goal from like 10 meters out. I think it was even a set shot. I tweeted "I'm pretty sure I could have kicked that one, and i'm a Yank." Someone told me to test it out. So the next morning I went out to a park, got a football, set markers apart, the width of the goal, counted off 10 meters and had a crack. I'm proud to report I would have kicked a goal on my first attempt. My second attempt looked like something from a footy horror show. Came squarely off the side of my foot and nearly took out a squirrel who was camped out under a tree to the right of me.

Must be weird for Mitch being the one without the camera.

Hope he focuses on his development though. Needs more exposure to AFL football.

Jon Dorotich?

That is good mate. One thing I should point out though. We don't have squirrels in aust as for as I know. I reckon you nearly took out a possum with your second kick at goal. Don't worry I have wanted to take those little buggers out many a time when they jump, hiss and mate on my roof in the middle of the night!!

Not pre-season, but guys getting on with some training anyway in their holiday, using the facilities.

The better they come back, the better the preseason will be. Great to see Clark up and running, for sure!

Oh no. Dear god no. Were not talking about the preseason....all I remember last year is comments from Neeld saying how well our preseason is going, how well it went during our heavy losses. I hate preseason and wish I could avoid all the discussions on it. There are 17 other teams who will have a great preseason. Personally, I couldn't give a s***

    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
