I was at the team photo shoot yesterday.

Grimes and Jones sitting proudly either side of Roos, read into that what you will.

Clark and Frawley either side of them but I don't expect to see a third captain, despite what happened at the Swans.

Done and Dusted i'd say on the basis of this information.

Grimes and Jones co captains

Clark and Frawley Vice captains

Good result only improved if they announce Frawley has a new contract.

If Clark is vice captain I guess he really is fit and ready to play.

Nothing about what he has said or done since joining the club indicates that. Unless he's a mate of yours and has told you this himself, I'm calling [censored].

Delighted that Jack T is in LG...great way to show respect and keep him motivated not to mention that he really deserves it.

Team isn't strong enough for one captain to handle the pressure. Jones and Grimes are a natural choice.

Wouldn't like Grimes to be sole captain handling big losses each week. Needs to be shared.

And Pedersen in the leadership group.

Played in more wins at North in 2011 then Melbourne did under the Neeld/Craig glory years.

Can't be N.Jones surely.

Grimes or Garland perhaps...but no standout

Roos might pick 4 frigging captains...who knows.

Viney must be in the LG IMO. If not, it aint a LG in my book.

My Prediction: Jones and Grimes Co Captains ,Garland Vice Captain
My desire: Jones Captain, Garland Vice Captain

Interesting announcement,

Just talking to a mate who is dees fan.

He said who cares?

I ask what is behind that attitude?

I only care about improvement and winning I don't care who fills. the roles!

When i heard we would be going for co-captains i thought they would be Donald and David Cockatoo-Collins.

Glory days....

Jones is a lock, 2 years too late, but better than nothing.

If Jones was made captain before he was even an established AFL player yet alone a good one and before he stepped up his leadership he wouldn't have been a good captain and probably not the player he is now. But now I have faith in him as I do Grimes.

You got the names right (minus cross/Dawes)

    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

    TRAINING: Monday 13th January 2025

    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
