Had a chat with Justin Plapp after the main training. He seems extremely happy and excited for Sunday!

His interview on the MFC website sounds very positive (as does Weideman's interview)! They are all excited about Sunday.

Man I can't tell you how excited I am for this game. My brother in 10 years of football has never played in a Grand Final, and nothing on this level. He is absolutely beaming with anticipation (which

Been impressed with Jack Hutchins in what I've seen of him on tv and during the interviews. Seems to have a level head, good leadership and an AFL hardened body to throw around. Good pick up by the Scorps.

This may be a dumb question, but what colours are people wearing on Sunday? It's easy for the footscray kids, but should we throw on the Dees gear in support?

There are often many supporters in Dees gear at Scorps matches - prob more than those in Scorps gear. It's essentially the same colours (speaking from a male standpoint) and the connection between clubs is well known, so go for it. Hat, scarf, jumper ect.

Think it's actually a good question. Dogs are red, white & light blue. Scorps are red, white & dark blue. So the colours are the same, apart from the shades of the blue, and possibly the shades of the red too.

Makes sense to turn up in Dees gear and miss out the white.

Good luck to the Scorps on Sunday, I'm really looking forward to this. They've been the best side all year and deserve to win, but strange things happen at Shitihad Stadium.

No Don't, I took my Mrs to Bunnings for a sausage on valentines day and she didn't appreciate it.

And she still has the nerve to tell me I don't care about her.

Some women are never pleased.

Surprised she has to travel all the way, to Bunnings no less, to earn a sau-sage. silly sausage, doc

I hadn't heard of them as a clothing company and assumed the Tobacco advertising laws still applied.

 

That sponsorship seems to be working well.

Going tomorrow because its a grand final and its the closest thing to see Melbourne play in one. also looking forward to seeing Casey play and also probably be the last chance to see some of our MFC players play for the red and blue.

 Stupid question but why isnt dawes playing? Did he not qualify.

Yes. Dawes did not qualify.

JKH qualified (he did not player any AFL games in 2016 so the handful of games played for Casey and its DL team was sufficient) but he must have been put into cotton wool because of his injury history this year.

Dogs winning into the GF will have the dogs fans on a big high and wouldn't surprise me if they get a few more through the gate because of it. 

C'mon Scorps, bring them back down to earth!

Pretty sure he did another bit of a hammy towards the end of the year 'Jack'...

    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.

    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)

    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
