3-4 weeks out from the Grand Final, all clubs that are still in contention need to nominate who will present the Premiership Cup to the captain should their club be Premiers.

Which club champion do you think deserves to present the cup to Jones and Viney should we be fortunate enough to be on the dais in a couple of weeks?

I wouldn’t mind if Roos was on the list as well..?

Was RDB rolled out in 1988(?) and 2000..?

RDB is the only choice.

Barassi easily.

If you can have two presenting then Daniher as well, but the reality is we don’t know when we’d get another one or indeed how much longer Barass will be around himself.

Would the AFL allow us to have two? I can already hear the whinging.

ND and RDB??

RP,  you're as likely to know the answer to this than most on here, but when was the last time a past coach given this honour, and not a past player?

Just curious to know as I have no idea and could either make a case for or against ND doing it.

Can Clayton Oliver play and present the cup? 

He'll be too busy presenting himself the Norm Smith.

Didnt Garry Lyon want nothing to do with us in the dark years?

I'm sure I heard Garry say last week he regrets getting involved but wanted to help Jim, difficult situation.

I voted Daniher as I grew up with him as our coach and his love and passion for the club kept it afloat during some hard times.

No slight on Barassi, but as a 36yo, my only first hand experience of him is as the coach of Sydney.

I honestly couldn’t care less tbh- everyone on the list above is worthy and I just want the damn cup!

These things often don't go to script. The most obvious choice in my opinion would be Barassi. However I can see someone like Neita doing it. 

In 2005 when the Swans won I could have sworn Bob Skilton was going to do it but they went with Paul Kelly.

This appears to be a very decisive subject. In order to keep harmony in the club and on demonland, I'll selflessly volunteer to do it myself.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    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. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
