I wish people wouldn't do that.

I know. You shouldn't be allowed to nominate your club.

Aren't Roos and Rocket reasonably good mates?

They share an interest (get paid by chemist warehouse) about prostate problems.

It's all become so clear now, like taking a pee after drinking 10 litres of water. Bennell will be a Demon.

Would be a fair combo PRB. Petracca will need time.

Agreed. He's the exact type of player we need. Just got to back in our environment.

Will our environment pass muster MW?

I think I just wet my pants with excitement.

After a long time where we probably couldn't honestly say yes, hopefully we've now got the right people in the relevant places RTG.

I'd like to see us take the risk. It's going to take a series of calculated gambles coming off to get us pushing for a flag again in this age of free agency, with the powerful clubs staying at the top of the ladder for longer.

Another follow up in response to someone asking why us and what the chances are:

Fair to say he was positive. I'd only heard the rumours we weren't interested. When he said to me we are getting Bennell I questioned it. I know how close this guy and Nev are. He said he'd spoke to Nev today and the meeting was a couple of days ago. Why would he choose us? I can't answer that . Maybe we are a destination club

Idk. Doesn't sound convincing to me.

I can report that Colin Sylvia will not be returning to the club to act as mentor.

Yeah I don't know. Bullsh1tters are usually pretty easy to spot - they're usually the ones who big-note and try to go into too much detail in an attempt to sound convincing.

This guy isn't pretending to know an exorbitant amount, and it's a plausible story.

Certainly doesn't mean it's a done deal but it's nice to be talking about a potential A-grader possibly coming to the club again rather than spuds like Melksham and Bastinac.

Wow, didn't expect to read that this morning!

Will be thrilled if true. What will get the deal done? Howe & Pick 6 for Bennell & Gorringe?

It was rumoured on facebook that Bennell rates Roos highly.

You can forget Prestia if Bennell lands at MFC

Not 6 times a day

I hope the rumor is true, but given Roos was quoted in this article:

http://m.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/tigers-to-weigh-up-harley-bennell-dees-and-roos-wont-20150916-gjocyi.html

Only week ago that we wouldn't pursue him, you have to wonder what's changed?

Could be typical Roos smoke and mirrors to divert attention elsewhere…. Hopefully

    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

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
