Yes the posts are informative. I do enjoy them.

I dont like the thought that someone may be representing me (as part of Demonland) however the mood strikes them, to the club and its players.

I accept my view may be churlish.

I don't think Saty announces himself as Demonland's rep. He simply takes an interest and lets the players know he posts on supporters forum and asks whether it is ok to post what they say.

Not trying to make you tear up, but there's a palpable sense of self-importance there, and it makes you say silly things.

Why you feel the need to tell the kid he has "30 pages of nervous posters" rattling about his health, is beyond me.

I don't think the kid is ignorant, but I also don't think he needs to hear this stuff from a fanboy hanging over the fence.

It's just weird.

I can't believe some of the nastiness that starts to rear its ugly head when Saty passes on such information to us. I have met him a couple of times when I've been in Melbourne and managed to get along to training and Saty does have an obvious rapport with the players and they don't just give a passing nod, but do respond well... the fact that he tells it like it is (his relationship with the players) rather than taking a more humble approach should not be a problem.

Sheesh. The bunch of piranahs eating their own on this place continues to amaze me.

I too have met Saty at training on a trip down to Melbourne. Here is a guy who makes it to training regularly enough for the players to know him and tell him things that others on here don't seem to find out. He takes the trouble to sit down and write them up so those who are interested can find out things that we wouldn't find out otherwise. Especially those of us living interstate.

Saty doesn't matter what you put on here or how you put it. There are people on here who need to vent for their own mental health reasons. I'm sure the vast majority are like me and Hardtrack and grateful for the time you take to bother to put anything up at all.

Not sure if Dom stood there stamping his feet with his bat and ball packed up ready to go home.

The exodus from Brisbane was revolting. Josh Caddy etc...

If you're drafted out of your home state you should not be able to hold your club to ransom by wanting to go home. SA and WA clubs have a massive advantage in this respect.

Agree, the conduct by Polec was a disgrace.

Started his own bidding war between the two SA Clubs, after playing about 6 unimpressive games for Brisbane.

Luckily for him, his performances have vindicated him

Jesse was moving pretty well at training today, gave me the thumbs up when I asked how he's traveling.

He wasn't even decent enough to do that, he named Port as his desired club. He's a joke.

Good play him next week!

You spoke to him?

Not a good idea. He'll be back to Perth now, and it'll all be your fault.

Wow.

Some serious nerves hit on this forum.

I'm just not a fan of some of the things Saty reports he says to the players.

Is that fair?

Or maybe I should now down at the altar of Satyricon like so many others..?

It's a difference of opinion.

Get over it.

Wow.

no machsy you get over it.

Physician heal thyself ;-)

?

I cringe. He doesn't.

The end.

But what's it got to do with you? It's between Saty and the players.

I haven't met him but I love him. xxx

Fair call.

But I reckon Saty can fight his own battles.

Looking forward to seeing him in the red & blue. 5-6 weeks.

You wouldn't want our players not to go in in defence of one of their own would you? So it should be on the forums as well

Don't worry Franky, when Jesse sees you walking down the road he won't recognize you as a Demonland poster - and one of the better ones at that!

Jesse will recognise your dog from your avatar Bob, he'll know your dog posts here!

My preference is that we wrap him up in mothballs and have him fresh and ready for Round 1, 2015.

My preference is that we play players that are in our best 22 if they're fit enough. End of story.

I'm with Elwood on this. If he's not ready to play VFL for another 6 weeks and needs a game or two at Casey, it's hardly worthwhile bringing him back for one or two games.

Wasn't Jack Grimes brought in for his first game late in his first or second year at the club? I reckon it was worthwhile for him WJ.

Don't know about that.

It's probably what I object to more than anything.

Saty might provide some decent input to this forum, and that should be commended.

It doesn't mean he's beyond any form of criticism, or that anyone that does should be labelled a "piranha" or as "eating their own."

End of the day, it's not even worth going on about.

Got to give the kid something to aim for, ie playing a game or 2 this year if possible. Training for training sake is boring and frustrating.
