Yep. We're just one good preseason away.

I love Gawn and I know these garbage articles are just fodder for the media and have to be done.

But Jesus if my eyes could roll out of head while I read the same thing each pre-season, I would have gone blind years ago.

Agree, I see a heading like that and no mater what content is in the article all I read is Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah.  I know we need content on our website and we will see many over the next 4 months, hopefully come March April we can see something to be really excited about

Your reaction is the same as most Dees supporters.

The trouble with those words is they sound very hollow because they have never been backed up by deeds.

I would prefer if the messaging was different. Acknowledge past failures and shortcomings. Say we’ll let our footy do the talking when the season rolls around. Something other than the usual guff. I find it a little insulting tbh.

Yes its fluff but I do question the value of these pieces and why they have to be published at all.

Yeah agree, I’d actually prefer it if the club kept a bit quiet and Max just said, hopefully our actions will speak loader than words 

Leave it at that

I'd be happy for the club to can all the shop talk until March then drop a new documentary. Until then Max could talk about something he has a better handle on like jaffles or coffee.

Signal in the red flags.

The media knows exactly which club (clubs) to get outlandish delusional quotes from.

We are the gift that keeps on giving this time of year.

Reminds me of what they say in Brazil..."Brazil is the country of the future and always will be".

This was said to me 30 years 'Object oriented design is the way of the future and has been so for the last 10 years'.

Not quite sure why I am sharing that.

Anyway could I just say that I have been ready for success since 1965.  I think the team is too and if they dont get it they will go elsewhere.

Death taxes and one these Pre season Melbourne articles.

 

Get it right....it is inheritance taxes

This is talking the house down in preparation for training the house down. It's like a pre-season for pre-season.

 

Actions, Max. We're not interested in any words, unless they involve me winning Tattslotto.

I'm glad he's positive, and he should be as there are some guys that can seriously play in our team. Time to make something of it.

    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.

    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.

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