Interesting that the ‘Misson effect’ is spreading.  Ex-Demons Watts, Hogan and Dom Tyson all out for stints at their respective clubs.  Tyson now TBC with a calf.

This is stupid. Now we are just looking for reason to sink the boots into Misso.

Watts broke his leg in an accidental tackle? Whats that got to do with this stupid 'The Mission effect'.

How do you know the exact day? Surely he announced it as 4-6 weeks....

Blame, of course, is one of the five stages of grief. Most Demonlanders have yet to move on to acceptance and hope stage.

With Melbourne's injury list being primarily made up of contact injuries, I wonder if the blame should be placed on the shoulders of Goodwin and his chaos ball game plan?

Will that make us feel better?

I think most of them would have said to Joel Smith in the pre-season game, take the rest of the game off son.

 

That puts them in the short-list I reckon.

I actually find it funny that this is on linked-in. I thought these jobs are just filled through connections in the industry.

Yeah right. The one guy who kept his job in the FD under 3 different regimes (Neeld, Roos, Goodwin), and is leaving under his own volition to go overseas.

Worth noting that while Misson has been head-hunted a couple of times over a career in the AFL that goes back to 2001, he has never been sacked or "moved on".

    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.

    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
