Clayton Oliver - he gets a hard tag every week, breaks it and still dishes close to 3o sublime handballs a game.

then you give him a second and he can hit a target like Ablett Jnr.

I am grateful for Hells Bells being played as the players run out, but then left shattered by the quick shut off and replacement of the Grand Old Flag.  I know its our club song but its also ACDC.  Its appropriate for our team.  Turn it up louder, don't cut it off.  Pump it up!!!! Its the right thing to do.

The stress that Buckley is under with a potential lawsuit for his treatment of Heritier and of course the cloud of doubt over his performance ?

Jesus our lord for given us Jason Taylor who picked  Bluey Truscott the second, he will win many of them too, Eddie for being   so stubborn that he can never admit he's wrong Buckley will keep them out of the finals forever, Mr and  Mrs viney.

This may be a cringeworthy comment for some / many / most, but for my many sins, I must live in an AFL 'backwoods' known as Canberra, and I'm extremely grateful to Demonland for keeping me in touch with everything, both real and unreal, about the Melbourne Football Club, as we approach September ...........  (having said that, I may well hate Demonland come Saturday evening ...... lol).

I had the unfortunate experience of living in SA for a period.  Sorry Croweaters, it is a beautiful state and has a lot of redeeming features particularly it's festivals, beaches and wine. 

But for a football lover that craves football news, you may as well be on the moon. The only footy news consists of training reports and match reports of the Crows and Port.  It's the AFL but you may as well be listening to reports on the SANFL.  

Living in Canberra is like living in a fog where anti-depressants and a weekly exit to a living place is the only solace. 

Living in SA is like living in White Australia in the 1950s where there is no news outside the State. It's a strange feeling to be living in the middle of the country yet feel so isolated.  

However, my best wishes to all those Norwood fans and mighty South Aussies that support the Demons and other Victorian clubs. There are plenty but I don't know how they do it!

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    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.
