Just watched this segment for the second time. Melbourne was not mentioned again. It's as though these [censored] have as much amnesia about the Demons as the French have about their German ancestry, witness Charlemagne, alias Carl Der Grosse.

360 talked about gawn. OTC talked about mfc having a collection of high level talent. Petracca. Viney, Oliver, brawshaw and Hogan could be premiership worthy if Hogan stays. Jbrown would offer 15mil over 10 if he was freo. Best under 21 yo player.

Sacre Blue, you aren't the grand handstander, the bane of Ron Barasssi's life, the thumper of Robbie, the alleged locker room thief at St Kilda, the victim who finally retaliated at the merciless Hawthorn snipers and caused poor Leigh to assault Bews?

Yeah, yeah, I was watching a recording, commented prematurely - see above

What's there to mention?  We're only 4-3, havent beaten anyone of genuine quality yet, still inconsistent at best, hell even Carlton have put together longer winning streaks.

we will get the praise when there is something to praise. We're improving but still a bloody long way to go.

I like being the underdog. Like a horse race, I am wary of a favourite. Naturally if we keep winning we are going to go into matches as favourites more often than not, but happy with a low profile and slow emergence. As for the football media , I do not give a toss. They are imbeciles and best not listened to anytime anywhere. They are completely fickle and most of the time dumb. They talk off the top of their head and rarely have opinions that matter.  We certainly do not need others to talk us up.

More than happy with no mention -   sign we have improved and no longer headline news when we win -   keeps the players feet on the ground too.

We beat North. The scoreboard just didn't ultimately reflect that.

Have to agree. I've grown to dislike him over time due to his perceived arrogance, but he actually makes the show watchable again. The Hutchison/Barrett combo was deplorable, Lloyd is average and Caro talks little about the actual football. 

Unlike Hutchison and Barrett, Judd's analysis was reasoned and without hyperbole.

Dermie on SEN earlier today was right into the Dees.  Interestingly, he posed a hypothetical question to the other hosts, if the bottom ten teams were to hold a mini comp right now, who would wind up in the grand final.  Instant universal response was Dees and Saints.  They all agreed that those two sides are a cut above the rest as far as the bottom ten go.

Had my dees scarf on at work yesterday and a passer by struck up some conversation with me. Said the dees are one of his favourite teams to watch when his team (Geelong) isn't playing. Exciting brand of footy when it works. 

 

If the media aren't noticing us, other fans are!

Frankly who cares what the paid mouthpieces are saying. It's like a child saying look at me, look at me. Craving some kind of respect.

We have beaten no-one (well , maybe GWS) and I'd be far happier for us to stay out of the media and the limelight and let our performances do the talking. We are coming from a long way back in terms of respect. Let's not be arrogant tossers because as we have shown this season, we can put in a shocker every few weeks.

Let this team develop winning habits and good training standards without fanfare.

    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
