Laurie and Bowey look pretty ripped already eh.

Rosman with some weight will be a weapon.

How ripped is Trac looking, it's shocking. $ on him for Brownlow I think.

    Petracca looks the same as last season. Not sure what you're looking at. 

    How many times have you seen Rosman play just out of interest?

    Fraser Rosman has the potential to be an absolute beast. He has a similar physique to Paddy Cripps.

    Rosman looks like he would be a very hard match up on the wing with his height and pace and Bowey & Laurie  look very zippy and skillful

    Interesting the young(er) lads are bunking at other players houses inc Tmac and his wife and baby. It was billet families in times gone past. 
     

    How AFL players have grown from part time trainers and players getting on the booze every weekend to full time trainers on the booze most weekends to full time pro’s in the off season letting lose.

    The club has done this for the last few years. They have draftees stay with a team mate for the first week or so. I assume it's for things along the line of getting to know a team mate as a mentor, getting some tips on routine and a chance to ask all the questions they might be afraid to ask without that closer bond.

    Probably just cuts down a lot of anxiety about when/what to eat, when to wake up, what to pack, which way to drive and where to park etc etc. Given all 3 are from SE Melbourne they'll probably all go back to living with mum and dad next week.

    Agree. Rosman is a huge athlete. Pace. Endurance. Size. Can’t wait to see how he develops.
     

    Bowey and Laurie. I think JT went for the most skilful kids available at our picks. Perhaps they are the two most skilled in the draft. Good signs.

    His 1996 and 1997 seasons were write offs due to the back problems... a real shame as he was at the peak of his powers having kicked 77 and 79 goals in 94/95.

     His comeback in 1998 in Round 2 against North was one of my favorite Demon games ever.  He kicked 40 goals that season and helped us into the prelim final.

    I still believe that Gary Lyon is hugely underrated by the footy world. 

    Also missed the second half of the 89 season and bits and pieces through the early 90s.

    i refuse to believe fraser rosman isn't actually 27 years old 

    Kind of scary to think he's four or five years away from having a proper AFL physique according to conventional wisdom.  The kid will be a monster.

    We are so frustrating and can't be trusted.   It's not pleasant watching them, it's a chore.

    As a long time supporter I'm tired.

    Tired of not seeing them fulfil potential.

    Tired of seeing them drop games they should win.

    Tired of watching subpar skills.

    Tired of having [censored] Robbo as the game day hype man.

    Tired of seeing Trac, Clarry and Brayshaw not got back and take their time off the mark.

    Tired of seeing Melksham give away stupid 50s.

    Tired of not seeing the club hire a vodou houngan to calm the uneasy spirit of Norm Smith. 

    Tired of saying wtf happened to Tom McDonald

    Tired of seeing spuds like ANB on the list

    Tired of Greg Stafford being our goal kicking coach (pre-Choco)

     

    Think of this as my MFC Festivus  - I got a lot of problems with you people!

    Someone asked her for her negatives. 

    I thought there was some humour (festivus) in the reply.

    You could ask her for some positive aspects, maybe she will give out some more laughs.

    Stay with us @deegirl

    This is the year (2021), fingers crossed.

    I contacted the club today about going to Casey and what time training would be. This is there response.

    Thank yo for taking the time to contact us.

    The team won't be training tomorrow and at this stage their won't be any open training sessions. You can see training sessions when they take  place from outside the fence but you can't enter or approach players on their way in or out before or after training for photos or autographs due to the current guidelines.

     

    So sorry Demonlanders I won't be going Friday. Hopefully in the new year they will have open training sessions.

    Thank you for your service.

    Let us know how it goes and how much you can still see from behind the fence.

    I'd love to head down before the Christmas break but not if it's comparable to sitting in row MM of the Ponsford stand. Apologies in advance to @Supermercado

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
