I DON'T KNOW I ONLY GO BY WHAT I READ IN REPORTS, MAYBE ASK SOMEONE THAT GETS DOWN TO CASEY AND WATCHES!???

And if you were smart enough I haven't mentioned once Harmes is ready so don't try and put words into my mouth. Going by the reports personally I wouldn't mind seeing him get a go.

Thank you! No need to shout!

Yes, I think going by what I have seen he is ready NOW!

We should make multiple changes for no other reason than to make me feel a whole lot better and yeah, there's the Darwin energy sapping travel bit too.

Out: Spencer (stiff but the two ruckman experiment is over for now), Bail, M Jones, Toumpas, Howe (Please!)

In: Fitzpatrick (if we need for back up ruck work, otherwise Grimes), JKH, Lamumba, Harmes (upgrade), Newton

I feel better already

PS I'd even consider Riley in as the sub to smash up a few in the last (e.g.. Goddard)

Hell never get Goddard unfortunately he never goes near a contested ball

It has come up numerous times but do we seriously think letting Howe dish up such poor performances week in week out really assists his trade value more than dropping him? Are other clubs really that stupid?

Richmond almost traded pick 12 for an injured Trengove, and were only lucky that he failed a medical at the very last minute.

So my answer is yes, yes they are.

Lets put him on the long term injury list then before he does any further damage to his trade value and his own career prospects...

I don't think they have it in them...they're cooked.

Would need to be a massive turnaround and can only see that happening now if Hird walks or is pushed.

You can't trust anything you read on BigFooty but there's lots of chatter that Hird lost most of the playing group after his little escapade to Europe during the bye.

Also that many players were snickering and rolling their eyes during Hird's halftime address.

If he's finally lost the playing group they'll continue to perform like garbage until the club ditches him. They are capable of far better than their pathetic display today.

Just as we happily call them 'Essendrug' and 'Essendope' among other things on here. It works both ways.

When a team goes in tall to expose the opposition defence you need to at least have players who can mark the ball, otherwise you are not exposing anything other than the fact you don't have the cattle to do the job.

I'm sick to death of people posting rubbish on here about so & so's work rate, leadership, how they provide a contest ...bring the ball to ground.

Contest & bring the ball to ground...we had 4 players in our forward line to do that job on the weekend and when they did get to the contest and bring it to ground WC waltzed away with the ball. A novel idea is to get some players who can mark the ball and a few others who can crumb and provide defensive pressure.

I think Howe in current form is a waste of space, Dawes needs to be traded or retired and we can only go in with one true ruck.

Someone seemed to think those of us wanting Harmes to get a game are delusional, well that might be but his form has been good, he is a tough inside player who can play outside, kicks a goal and can take a strong mark.

I might be delusional but I think we could use someone with those traits.

    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.
