Really like the age bracket of the players we've recruited. All have had a taste and couple of pre seasons. Ready to go to that next level as a player.

All part of the 'master plan'. Right now I couldn't be happier with my footy club!

Not excited by this, however, he deserves his name correctly spelt in the thread title.

His name is Tomas.

TOuMpAS - misread it.

Well I think its a good get. He will slot into our midfield and just go in tough and hard. Its good to see players are excited. christian petracca@cpetracca7 3h

Great trade period for @melbournefc. Excited for 2016. A lot of hard work to prove a lot of people wrong and that doubt us. Let's do this. I think he is itching to get out there for us.

Anyway its good to see todd and co doing some hard work.

Dees cocked up with Toump - but 2012 is a horror draft for GWS.

- pick 1 Whitfield - looks good but no Wines, Macrae or Stringer.

- pick 2 O'Rourke - bust

- pick 3 Plowman - bust - now bundled up with 4 other (Summner former pick 10) to Blues for Pick in late 20's!

- pick 12 Jaksch - bust

And now SOS is trusted to rebuild Carlton's list!

Exactly, that is probably the worst first round drafting ever.

This is good to hear. I think the club should really bind the group with this "us vs the world" mentality, that everyone doubts the club (even some of our own supporters).

I hope i am not the only one who thinks this, but giving away that future 1st rounder will make it really hard to land Prestia next year..

Glad to pick him up. What a great day of trading from the club. Totally makes up for overpaying for Melksham!

Now that we have Bugg, I would not be surprised if we traded Grimes for a pack of chips.

A packet of chips, do we trade watts for a freddo frog then?

It does a little. But we can always use 2017's first rounder, or trade into the first round. I think the going rate for Prestia would be a 1st and a 2nd rounder, so it is still very doable. All of this hinges on him wanting to come to us of course. And if he did nominate us, both clubs will make it happen.

Can we please nickname him "Windshield"?

I guess "Syntax error" doesn't exactly roll off the tongue ... :lol::blink:

Rolls off the tongue too easily.

"Mozzie"? Those buggers don't roll off anything ... :lol:

Not obscure enough.

The aim with nicknames these days is to be as obscure and difficult to yell out as possible.

Chairman of the Board should be Bugg's nickname.

Bugg, Bugg Zapper, Zapper, Frank Zappa, Franky, Frank Sinatra... simples.

No, just spoke to Roosy, it's Buggsy.

    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

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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
