Just read that tasman guy who does the big training reports on bigfooty mentioned that apparently we could be seriously looking at Brock McLean as a possible rookie selection.

Why would he want to join a club that tanked?

I see this as a direct replacement for Trengove who will head straight to the long term injury list.

Im definitely not against the idea of him back at the club. We still need another mature head to help ease and guide these young kids who have just come in.

He joined Calrton, didn't he?

Think that was the point of the post :)

I'd take him. Useful midfield depth when we've got injuries or need to give the kids a rest.

Used to be my favourite player.

Tanking aside I reckon he loves the club. Wasn't he the only player to donate to the club from his own pocket.

If he was in the side, he would be taking the place of others I would prefer to be playing. We drafted Cross and Vince to help out Jones as the seniors in the midfield - I don't think we need another.

Except that the "Donation" was actually a penalty for doing burnouts after training in the car park.

I used to love Brock when he played for us......I think he has slowed down a lot (not that he was ever fast)....I think others have past him by and I think this would be a backward step.........I think the same for Sylvia as well.....

its a nice romantic thought but then you remember the On The Ouch interview and the [censored] he dropped us in

But maybe we should be thanking him because without that interview we may have never got rid of Schwab and co..

It would have been much more difficult.

What Brock said on the couch was correct.

Whether he should have said it is another issue.

But it was a "No pain No gain" scenario

Somebody had to talk....

He couldn't hack the drive to Casey five years ago - the trip won't be any easier next year.

Maybe he's moved into the area.

If Brock were to come back to the club it would be more about getting experience at Casey which is badly needed. I couldn't really see him pushing for senior selection now.

    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

    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

    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
