I know what you're thinking. Melbourne only wins the opening game of a season once in a blue moon, a rare occurrence involving 13 full moons in a one calendar year. Well, the fact of the matter is

Jealous of everyone heading to the 'G. I organised for a new TV and audio to be installed this morning to welcome the footy in. My wife doesn't know yet, she's at the shops, I'm hoping it's done by

Just on Gold Coast Jeager O Meara has been stretched off from a NEAFL match with what looks like a serious knee injury.

His career could be on the line here.

O'meara may have done his knee in the NEAFL.

Hope for his sake that ain't so.

Let's hope he's okay.

Hoping to find a pub in Byron that shows the game with full audio. Taking a break from Bluesfest to watch the footy today and tomorrow.

The Tigers fan with us is happy, while the Bombers and Roos fans I'm on holiday with remain hopeful, along with me.

Really excited to see the team play today. Good luck to the 7 playing for the Dees for the first time. Looking forward to Hogan and VanDemon crunching a few GC players early

Am at the ground, sitting on the Robbie Flower wing.

Good points:

1) We outnumber them considerably. Them being the Suns fans.

2) The Robbie Flower wing has a lot of people in it. Could be a place to assemble in the future.

3) The new member's scarf is an improvement on last years. At least some imagination went into this one.

The test of my judgements will be reserved until after the match.

So my wife came home and I was sitting in front of the new tv with fox footy on.

She looked at me, looked at the tv, back at me and said "You're a dh"

She threatened to cancel my Melbourne trip however I countered with offering to take her anywhere she wants for dinner. I'm in the clear for now.

Bring on the game!

Tell her watching footy results in a testosterone surge. Mind you a loss is the equivalent of a very cold spoon.

One thing I also take solace in is that at least we don't look like a bunch of Ronald McDonald clowns when we take the field.

I liked the entry music. Sadly, the bells usually toll for us!

    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
