Bartlett was a Failed Coach at Richmond who knows not what it takes to mold a team into a premiership winning combination!. Ralphy has no "Football" pedigree that I'm aware of!

Opinions are like Bum holes, everyone has one!

Bartlett also held a grudge for years whinging about the fact that he would never return to the club as long as those who sacked him were still there!

A loser's mentality if ever there was one.

If people want to agree with Kev and Ralphy's Gloom and Doom, then that's Fine!

I am tipping the DEES to be the Monster improvers this year!

KB will be at family day shaking his head and swallowing balls.

At least he is still working.

Considering the only radio stations SEN is beating in the ratings are News Radio and ABC Classic FM they might want to revisit their strategy of throwing tripe at the wall and hoping somebody shows an interest. Mind you KB's shift is the only one that went up so WTF do I know.

what KB and Denham have ever said about us has actually been true. If you don't like the "tough word" on some home truths then you are delusional.

We were rubbish, and still pretty much are. Better, yes, but still mostly rubbish.

Suck it up and be a realist.

At least they haven't got Andy Maher in that time slot. His whining voice just turns off my radio.

I had thought the Lions were a basket case not that long ago.

Now I have them firmly in the eight and definitely on the rise.

Things can change quite quickly in this competition - particularly when a club has a CEO like PJ and a coaching staff consisting of the likes of Roos, McCartney and Goodwin.

As to free agency - pick 3 for Frawley was to my mind very adequate compensation.

Carlton and Essendon no longer seem to be the powerhouses they have traditionally been either.

Brisbane have an awesome midfield and that alone will probably get them 8-10 wins for the season, but they have Josh Green, Merrett and Luke Mcquane up forward and they went after Beams instead of going for someone to replace Brown.

Stole the words out of my mouth!

Some seriously delusional supporters on here. You have summed it up best for me.

This was Johnny Ralph not Denham. However I suspect Denham has a special spot for MFC just because he is so critical and knows so much detail about us. Today on SEN he said he was off to lunch with Roos and talked in detail about how we are finally on the right track. He may be so critical because he has some interest.

i was speaking of Denham in the past, as those two (kb and denham) are usually paired. Some people round here like to live in "pretend" land where we are not one of the crappest modern football teams in the world, take the hyperbolic training reports/hype of the previous 5 years for example (there are other examples too).

Have said this many times before, the negativity we have copped from the journos over the years has been harsh, brutal, unrelenting but rarely wrong and quite deserved. Get in the real world, suck it up and accept it and move on, because we have deserved/ still deserve everything we get until we start winning games and making good of field decisions (which I feel we are starting to do).

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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

    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
