Surprised no thread has been made on this so far:

Footballers in Cars getting Coffee.

It's a new video on the MFC website and it's a brilliant idea to rip off an already brilliant idea, that is Jerry Seinfeld's great little Internet show "Comedians in Cars getting Coffee."

Episode 1 is Robbo interviewing big Max Gawn.

If you've not seen the original, this is basically the same thing where the host picks someone up, they drive around in the car and then have coffee, all the time just having a conversation.

Nothing groundbreaking, but it gives an insight into their personality and is relatively entertaining.

It's exactly that - light entertainment for supporters.

I notice its directed and produced by Court Sage Heart, who looks to be new to the media dept and I think is bringing in some great new ideas. I think the AFL club media is heading towards more personality driven content, as there's only so much we can watch where the coaches repeat all the same cliches and in the end tell us essentially nothing new. Same with anything to do with injury reports, etc.

Newsbeat looks like a regular segment that has popped up and is a bit like a short highlights show for those of us who have a hard time finding the time to watch all the videos produced, and to get the snippets that actually do come out of all the other guff. Not the greatest I've seen from the outset, but a rough diamond that could be polished. Saves me time at least.

Also probably worth mentioning that there's another new face on there, I think her name was Anna Harrington from memory. She interviewed T-Mac and Barry when they signed extensions.

Good to see the media dept expanding and producing greater quality media for us supporters.

A complete copy of an Italian hit show from the 1990s.

Besides that,most of our players drink green tea.

like the new segment. Love getting to know the players on a more personal level.
Good idea choosing Gawn to kick off the segment, bit of a "character".
The jokes about Chippa and his contracts are quite funny too.

Interesting to see Gawn's Mum (?) post these under the MFC Facebook post...hehe:

Didn't know that.

Anyway, Seinfeld's version is great.

As is the MFC version, as far as AFL club media is concerned, at the very least.

The idea was floated a few years back when Beamer and Col were about but 'Cruising Chapel Street with Pizzed Nuff Nuffs' wasn't deemed family friendly enough.

Gippy's the go... mostly. geography is important.

they did it on before the game last year with Mick and Lehmo where they would pick up a player have a conversation then just dump the player somewhere. Probably just another excuse for Robbo to get to be on a camera and talk. But some parts of it has been funny.

Hogan sounds like an interesting bloke to live around haha

"Ate everything and then hid in his room"

Without knowing him, that sounded about right :)

Dmitri seems like a pretty happy-go-lucky guy in this weeks episode.

Has everyone noticed that Robbo is the world's worst interviewer, he just talks about himself!

Man that was one guy that gave his all for the MFC. Fantastic player

Back when we were playing finals most seasons... good times

I think it's part of the charm though, it's not supposed to be an "interview".

It's supposed to be a general conversation, the way Robbo talks about himself and stuff actually relaxes the player, I have never seen players so comfortable around the camera than in that show.

Glad this is a positive thread cause I'm loving the new segment. The media department's been kicking goals this year.

God only knows how they have had bugger all positive to write about.

    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.
