I understand what you're saying but that wasn't my point.

Did you wet the bed?

Up early for pilates or just getting home like a Perth boy does?

Don't tell me it's yoga.

Surely you would be used to that Ethan?

We're all use to it over here.

What's that noise on the roof?

Oh it's just Ben Cousins off his head again, back to sleep.

I'm actually in Melbourne hoping to buy a house and move back. At least I think it's Melbourne, might be Beijing.

I can recommend Romsey but it is only for the discerning and genteel. No riff raff!

and for the gauchos and long necked sheep

?? Tyson out due to training injury.

?? Salem out due to illness 24 hours before the game (flu/gastro??).

are we wanting to win or let the season drift.

Maybe our resilience is the other issue holding bavk this club.

Mate you can't control injuries and illness. Half the team had the flu last week and played, so I don't think it's a matter of resilience.

Yeah strange comment, I would imagine things like this is put on the club doctors. Sure if we were competing for a top 8 spot they might try to push Dom or Christrian a little further but they are both young players with bright futures at the club, why risk the future for little gain in the present?

Sounds like this sickness that has gone through the club has hit some players harder than others, it is what it is.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
