Great discussion, but we don't seem to be a candidate, according to the newsboys.

They don't always know everything. Plenty of instances where the newsboys have not had a clue what was coming.

By sheer weight of supporter numbers, there are much more rumor mongers out there for the big clubs and so every club is linked to Coll, RIch, Ess & Haw

Must agree that Crossy was a great move, and boy did he give his all. Nick Dal would be a great asset if he stays fit and his heart is still in it, and I would much rather him to Boomer. Although no question Boomer is a champ with plenty still to give, honestly I always found him to be a bit of a ball hog, thoughts???

Definite no to Boomer. He has maintained amazing form but I just can't see him giving his heart to any club other than North. Of all the mature players being delisted and wanting to continue playing, Del Santo would be my pick but I am just not convinced it is our greatest need at present.

What Goodwin would want from a mature recruit is leadership, inspiration and a mentor on and off the field like Crossy was. Just because a player has had a great career doesn't mean they bring those other qualities. Only those in the inner sanctum truly know who fits that bill from what's out there currently. If we go that route then I'd prefer someone who can improve our young guys 2-3% over someone only playng on for selfish reasons. If Goody feels no external options fit our need then I'm sure he won't recruit them simply because the team would look better on paper.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    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

    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
