Ok, you will all have your own opinions about this guy yeah he has had his problems off the field and there is a risk, but this guy can play! He is exactly what we need in the centre tough as nails in the centre throws his weight around has a bit of dash and lays some bone crunching tackles too! He would add some much needed depth in the centre to help out Cross Vince and some of the younger onballers. Im sure if Roos thinks he can sort him out im In!!

Remember cant put to much expectation onto a Brayshaw so early, hasn't worked for us in the past!!!

I disagree that he can play. If you haven't got a lot going for you personality wise, you need to be a good enough player to offset that, and Robinson isn't.

Do you honestly think they will bring him in straight after we just recruited Garlett...

Probably not. But gee I liked the way he went about it. Not overly endowed with talent, but makes the most of what he has. interesting contrast to some we have/had on our list who didn't manage to do the same.

I certainly wouldn't mind his type of grunt on our half back line.

We should've got him last year when Picket Fence offered up pick 2 for him.

I still say we start a 'Hall of Shame' thread for posts such as that.

We can add the one where that bloke said Cameron Ling was too ugly to be a senior coach and that other one where it was suggested we try to recruit Tim Tebow to the club.

I think Robinson (like Lamumba in many respects) is underrated as player due to perceptions about his personality.

I would have thought the club looked at Robinson and Gartlett and wisely chose only one of them.

They both need a change of scenery and time away from the people who they formed bad habits alongside.

Luke Thompson from the Crows would be worth some thought.

Hahaha yes the Tebow one, w t f.

Should get Yao Ming in the ruck too. Really cement that China connection we've got going on...

It's honestly bewildering reading comments lambasting someone I would wager none of you have met in your lives.

And for what, exactly?

A comment he never actually made himself ("bruise free"). What a DH!

Defending himself when physically attacked at a music festival. What a DH!

His greatest crime was not being upfront with the club regarding his involvement with Garlett, who reportedly was also attacked. But of course let's assume the worst cause it's Robinson. Did I mention..what a DH!!!

I'm sure none of you have ever touched a drop of alcohol or gone out and found yourself In a situation you'd rather not be in. A bunch of pristine angels.

His on field value is what matters, and that is debatable. He didn't have the most inspiring season but Malthouse was clearly never a huge fan.

Any off field stuff is a bunch of overblown tripe. This idea that he could corrupt the club is absolutely ridiculous.

    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

    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

    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.
