direction...leadership influence outcome

people not see the flow ?

You dont wait, you make

its everything about leadership

Your making a fool of yourself like I just said he's had 7 coaches in 8 yrs.

I agree mjt. BB is being unrealistic.

But do you always have to add things like 'making a fool of yourself'. It is possible to disagree with someone without abuse.

Some don't have it, BB.

Can't be conjured overnight.

thats at least a valid counterpoint

unlike others

but then if he doesnt have it...how is he in the leadership group

If he makes claims he ought to back them up.

Seems to me he wants it both ways.

I make more of it that he makes a stance now, seems rather theatrical and contrived.

Very idealistic, but there is no one man team in the AFL.

He is but one man, and he has toiled manfully for many years.

I don't blame him for waiting.

But I also think you are misrepresenting the situation as if he has been unreasonable.

I'd appreciate you naming one single player who has made a different decision at such a stage.

around your remarks to make it clear to us precious types when you are being lighthearted and when you are being abusive.

Well, negotiations are precarious….he needs some encouragement? Mentoring? Perhaps, deep down, this is the promotion he has always craved, but couldn't verbalise?

I still think he's an exceptional player and must not be lost...

I agree wholeheartedly with the notion of mentoring.

Dont get me wrong....beyond my bemusement and scathing indifference is a will that he stays. But he has to want to stay and if not then what ever is

Who ever is in his his ear is doing no favours....to whatever is nibbling away at his concioussness and evoking ( for mine ) an unrealistic understanding of what awaits and indeed what are the choice.

Om dead curious as to why even broach this subject now....seems agenda driven

You have complained in the past at others, invariably Machsy, being abusive toward you - and here you are being indignant.

If you don't like this community, mjt, there is no law or academic requirement I have heard of that keeps a person here.

We're not.

how is this even a story?

No players sign contracts this early before they are out of contract, unless they are hacks who are lucky to be offered one

I think there's an undercurrent of loyalty that you're alluding to here. The ol' playing for the jumper...

That's now a changing mindset, brought about by several 'I am loyal and love the Club' players jumping ship for coin, motivation, greater prizes, or whatever.

Chip's manager is in his ear….make no mistake about that.

Then best you leave , I wasn't replying to sue or you so mind your own business , who do you think you are telling people to leave the forum, the only person that wasn't insulted was BB 59 and he was the one I was replying to. Edited by mjt

I'm with beelzebub on this. You can hold back until you see the direction (Watts, Frawley) or you can get in and set the direction (Grimes, Jones, Garland).

its a bit under said isnt it.

Im just curious as to what anyone..ANYONE expects of the future..or of their influence towards it

Again, why is this on the deck now ?? Other clubs 's players get through this but some of ours seem to use it as an excuse for other reasons ( my thinking )

The Dees would surely be stepping out on the best path they have since my living memory.... yet some dont buy in ?? yeah right esp as an elected leader. yeah..shred me by all means . Im not convinced he's dead set

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    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

    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

    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

    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
