Thank you Satyricon.

I remember the time MFC were preparing for our preliminary game and there you were in the inner circles of the club at the last Gosch's paddock run.

Meaning, the club absolutely trust you, your social skills and keeping confidentiality.

I find you are generous with your time and dedicated to our cause.

As I read the forums, you are more than happy to respond to questions about the team and in-fact encourage our involvement.

I believe you would get to a 4.30am training if it was scheduled.

You make it to most trainings even in inclement weather conditions.

That droll wit and sarcasm are great. Your pics, summations and most post are needed and appreciated. As are your insights and inside information.

Thank you again for your efforts, posts and follow-ups.

    Maybe he does get there at 4:30am, would explain the wizened look.

    Beautifully worded @kev martin. Nice to see recognition for Saty’s considerable efforts.

    Thank you Kev.  Demonland would be a better place if we all respected the views of others, regardless of whether we agreed with them or not.  As an 'interstster' who can't get to training, I value your training reports and Saty's equally.  I love them both!

    I haven't been here for a week.  Has Saty been copping it and, thus, this thread is born, or was Kev paid to do it?

    Bring on Round 1.

    Let's face it, we're all pathetic losers for being on this site at any time, let alone in the offseason.

    Hostility towards Saty and Kev is simply a projection of the dissatisfaction that comes from knowing you shouldn't care about the offseason combined with the awareness that you care enough to read a website but not enough to visit in person.

    They do, and so they're better losers than all of us combined.

    Go Dees (at all times, but especially in the parts of the year when the games are being played)!

    Paid.

    Actually I'm off overseas in a couple of weeks and thought I'd encourage the most regular track watcher and his posts.

    Your leave from Demonland has been denied. 

    I just love training reports especially at this time of year. 

    I'm out for 6-7 months.

    Not exactly long service leave but I'll take it when I can get it.

    See you after the bye.

    Thanks @kev martin  will miss your excellent reports

    I just get bored with the small minority on here who want to turn every thread into a pissing contest

    I post on this board for the reason you do, to keep posters, who unlike you and me, can't get to training or meetings etc

    Unfortunately it means having to put up with the minority, what I do find so amusing is their inability to put me on ignore or block, thought that would be the ideal solution, to rid them of the angst I obviously cause them

    I really like Saty's reports and pics. 

    And those of @Earl Hood@Big Kev@DeeSpencerand all other folk whose names I don't recall, who go to training and report back.  Especially in the off-season when there is little demon related news or first hand info.

    Thanks one and all

    ...my standard mid season kind of holiday!!

    Funny RG my wife often says to me ( half joking )" why do still follow that mob surely after half century you can see the theme"

    I have no answer! Once I used to fight her attempts to get me on mid year ( away from our winter ) holidays now I see it as a welcome break.

    That wasn't exactly what I was inferring Old Dee.  i.e. Terry Wallace was a 6 week holiday etc.

    But I know what you mean and my wife often makes similar suggestions.  I can only hope that her beloved wees and poos enjoy the kind of success over the next 50 years that we have the previous half century.

    I didn't have to answer - wife barracked for C'wood before she met me. Now she shares the same misery as me (and hope).

    Thanks Saty for taking the time out of your busy schedule to bring us all up to date on training.

    And also to Santa for allowing Saty out of the workshop at this busy time in the North Pole.

    The difference is the Hawks are grounded in  reality it has taken us till just recently to get the picture. The Hawks won't sink to a 50 year low.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
