It's almost time for a new recruit from Adelaide FC.

What say we look at Taylor Walker for a few years?

Imagine that reunion with Lever down at Gosch's Paddock.

Quite possibly the most over hyped and over rated player to have ever played the game

The 'off' season has officially started

He kicked 43 goals this year including 5 in round 23. What did our leading goal kicker end up with this year?

Sad thing is he'd still be a better option than Weideman, T Smith, Petty, O Mac and whoever else has graced our atrocious forward line this year.

I love it how we're quick to bag blokes like Walker even though we have the worst forward line in the AFL.

Tex still has the skills but his athleticism is shot. We're all hoping Tommy Mc gets his athleticism back and then confidence in his skills, we don't need to add a second older slower player next to him.

If there is a Crows key forward to go after then I can reluctantly see the benefit of having Jenkins for a year or two so there's some genuine competition and depth.

I am most happy to say in the same breath that Walker is a pretender, and our forward line is dismal.

Walker actually doesn't have these to give! If he wasn't a media-star in his own teacup, he'd have been passed over a few years ago.

I'd rather play Oscar McDonald forward...jeez how desperate are we???

A saving grace for OMac possibly, but it would have to be trialled for half the season at Casey first. It may work - provided he doesn't aim to ignite the forward line with his blistering leads and rugged forward defensive pressure.

^ Sob! ^ If only TMac would lead from full forward. A propping forward is lucky, not determined.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
