most players in attendance , was a great few hours , all players happy to have a chat and talk to everyone 

Gus sat with us and pulled up fine from his run at Casey , we spoke about breaking back into the team this year , very fine young man 

sam weideman  also sat for a chat and loves playing at the Dees and is trying hard to convert his grandparents over to the Dees

Jordan Lewis , was more than happy to talk too

my 6 year went up to nearly every player on his own and got them all to sign his jumper as did his sisters

Great pic 'markc'!

Out of interest which player does your family sponsor?  It must be a real thrill for your kids to have a player they have a special connection with.

Did Lewis hold on to his snag or drop it on the floor?

He dropped it and then dived on it when Jarman Impey tried to nab it.

Great post mark, glad you and your family enjoyed it.

Wouldn't worry about that. When Todd was coaching Echuca he turned up on crutches and was so furious at how the team was going at half time he threw them away and played the second half.

I was also at the Player Sponsor BBQ and asked Viney about crutches.  He said it was all OK, part of then plan and was only about keeping the weight off.  Later on, I saw him walking around with both crutches in his hand.

Btw MarkC, I saw your little man get Oliver's signature on his own.  My 8 year old boy was far more shy.

The players were magnificent.

It must be a drag having to roll up on Sunday lunchtime and chat to fawning fans, but they were so polite and friendly.

My 15 yr old daughter got photos with about 6 players who were all so kind to her. She even got a photo with her future husband.( J H!)

Jack Watts  and Trenners are such charmers! So patient!

Does your daughter have a genetic predisposition for lowering her eyes?

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
