No frigging idea what you're talking about or what it had to do with 2006.

Don't reply though.  It's a bore. 

OK, I get it, you're just wanting to draw attention to yourself, not discuss the issue.

Carry on.

Hawthorn Port and Richmond game we were practically ahead the whole game so I am not sure what leadership needed to do to turn the tide. Against Gold Coast Jack Watts stood up and won the game for us.

And all 3 of those sides put the heat on us and challanged us during the game. All of our leaders in Viney Jones Gawn and McDonald played a big part in steering the ship back on track. 

You could also throw in the GWS game where we were 20 odd points down in the last and Gawn Jones and Viney got us back on top to win the game through the middle.

Your quick to lay the boot into Nathan Jones and our leadership group but never hear a hint of appreciation when they win us big games against the GWS Hawthorns and Collingwoods.

I literally didn't understand your post.

If it was relevant or coherent it escaped me.

Maybe read it again, consider why you particularly responded to me and reword it.

Attitude...Which has been a problem in the shadows of the club for Decades. 

Roosy has done a magnificent job. I only wish we had him another 2 years. Goodwin better be one mentally strong guy

So this is a decades old attitude problem and not a lack of onfield leadership in what is a terribly young group ?

I thought it might have been that we only had 4 x 100 game players, including a 23 year old in McDonald. 

Instead I should have realised they were channeling 50 years of mediocrity.

Surely by now you realise the futility in this type of engagement.

Yes.  

I have a bit more time on my hands for the next couple of weeks, hence being more active than usual.

But I'm fully cognisant that not one word I say will resonate with the hand-wringers.

Oh poor positive Pete is no one taking notice of you?

Well I will go back and re read your posts.

Feel better?

Mate, I couldn't care what you or anyone else on here thinks.

I just like arguing.

It's a combination of both PD. You know i have been talking about Leadership all year

But i am also convinced psychology plays a part as well. This club has been kicked so many times since Norm left, repeatedly. 

If we had lost a nail biting shootout against Carlscum i can deal with that. 

But we didn't turn up...

More time than usual? That can't be a good thing for Demonland, Ben.

Potentially, yes. But I find nothing wakes me up in the morning better than a dose of sheer arrogance.

    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. 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
