Quite pleased to be getting Ben Brown from the Kangaroos. He looks much better in a Demons jumper! ?

Hope he has an excellent pre-season and gets nice and fit for the 2021!

We just gotta make sure our midfielders lower their eyes and kick the ball to him on the lead.

The next question will be if he will continue wearing the number 50 or choose a different number?

Geelong traded 30 to North for Shaun Higgins.  Let that sink in!

Geelong pay premiums for anyone aged 30 and over. It's club policy to keep their list as old as possible.

He might. He's applied for a job at another club after being demoted.

 

Unless Essendon are going for this yin/yang thing, I couldn't see Mahoney working with Dodoro.  One gets [censored] done, the other is a pest.

When you look at the business we've done over the past few years:

- Hogan out for May which is turning out to be a huge plus

- Langdon one of the best pickups in the comp this year for a second rounder

- Benny Brown basically for Preuss

- This year's 1st round lucky dip draft for Kozzy

- Likely 200+ gamer for pick 50-something  (Rivers)

- Burgo in our fitness dept (worth whatever we paid)

People often lament on the Lever deal, but I reckon we've come out well and truly in front. Now we just need to put the pieces together.

It's hard for a Dees fan, not to love Mahoney's work at this tome of year! We now have the center-pieces around which we can build a decent forward line.

Seems maybe he's already in the right place, for us and for him....

From Marc McGowan on Twitter: Roos trade Ben Brown, R2 (28) and Future R4 Selection (63*) = 789 points Dees trade R2 (26), R2 (33) and Future R4 Selection (76*) (currently tied to the Brisbane Lions) = 1292 points Ben Brown = 503 points (pick 36) * Assumes Roos and Lions finish in same spot as 2020

Not that it matters much but he also seems like a ripper fella off the field. It takes a very likeable character for me to still like them once they pull on a Norf jumper. Very happy he’s now a Demon.

Welcome BBB and good luck in red and blue 

Love to see someone try getting a premiership medallion over that mop of hair ?

Ex North players to Melbourne. Stephen Icke and Brian Wilson were pretty decent. If Brown comes close to them it will be good.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
