Nash you left out dwarf tossing. Perhaps that should be throwing, either way inappropriate. 

Dwarf tossing?  I thought that it was dwarf burning, or is that a St.Kilda exclusive?

Looked fit and well.

Loved the little banter between him and Salem right in front of me though!

Salem sprayed a kick on his right foot with Jetta right on his backside and Jetta yelled "ahh thats the pressure right there"

Salem: "[censored] off mate!" ?

He also pulled Dion Johnstone aside to do some one on one body positioning and contest work too.

Ready to go.

Nev is just an amazing person and club man.  Well done to keep this up even during his finals.

Hope it is enough to get Dion one more year on his contract.

Who knows what New can inspire him to achieve.  After all, he himself was delisted and rookied under Roos.

Not disputing that we’d miss him and that Smith is a downgrade - that’s why Hibberd is a lock 22 and Smith is on the fringe. Just that I doubt it would be the difference between losing and winning as the loss of other players who are completely irreplaceable would be. The gap between Oliver and our next available midfielder is nowhere near as large as the gap between Hibberd and Smith, for example. 

If for your life, you had to choose one from the following players to get injured, which would you choose?

a) Jetta (best small)

b) Hibberd (best flanker)

c) Oliver (best mid)

d) Gawn (best ruck)

e) TMac (best tall)

?

f) Jack Watts ??

My wife just told me Hibbo did a very intense training session indoors after leaving the track early. Anyone else hear this?

Your wife an insider DZ ?? Sounds like she's getting some good intel.

Unfortunately not pd. She was told by a friend and as far as I am aware she’s not an insider either.

What Saty said..

I was suprised how up and about he was,  you'd think a bloke in his position who probably knows his time is up would bit down in the dumps.. but credit to him, he's playing a fantastic leadership role down at Casey.

I'm trying to work out whether your top is a copy of Harmes' sleeve or whether he's tried to copy your top onto his arm.

What this photo does show yet again is how big these blokes are (to borrow a Michael Palin quote, "even the small ones are big!")  My brother (a fraction under 6') bumped into Jake Melksham and was taken aback by how tall he was.

Methuselah lives, but at age 969 there would appear to be an age difference.

Pedo was the first person cheering the team as they walked off the G down the race on Friday ,  and I've seen his genuine excitement for the team on multiple occasions this year when he wasn't part of the 22.

It's great to see.

Great credit to Pedo who has played his role whenever asked - not the best player on the list by any means, but still a vital cog in the overall scheme of things.  If he wants to go on, he would be worth another year on the Casey list, at least. (As an aside, was Jeffy there on Friday night?)

Amazing what a tight knit group we have now.

There don't seem to be any 'outsiders' nor any who don't buy in to the ultimate goal.

After many dark decades a bright light beckons.

GO DEMONS!!!

    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

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.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    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
