Interesting, Spargo comes across as being more mature than what I'd imagined. Though they all do. There's obviously a pattern to the drafting etc. the past few years. Todd Viney's influence?

The Dynasty will be determined about how hungry they are. Nice signs here. Maybe still a little hungover and husky, but nice signs. Go Dees.

Silly, silly little Crow fans, bit off more than they could chew. What's round and gold that hangs around Jake Lever's neck? A piece of footballing history that's what.😂😂😂

Where are you now Texas? Needs to learn how to keep his big trap shut the boy.

"That last quarter was incredible"

Ken oath it was! 9 goals to 1 ... over a match that's 36 to 4 and is 186 territory. Over a quality opponent and in a grand final!

And it was the Melbourne Football Club that did it!

GO DEMONS!!!

That's strange the crap did not end after his second season, as we have been a much better side then them since he left them.

Gee Gus really stepped up in the Gf.

Has been solid all year but doesn't really  rip games apart like others. Turned it up three sixty degrees in the big one. Put his body on the line time after time. Miraculously moved from standing next to Bowie when Bowie kicked it and then turned up at the end of it to mark.

Hasnt been great at goal kicking but nailed this one to put us back in front.

This may sound crazy , but is Spargs a potential captain? I think so.He is articulate and intelligent.And a premiership player.

Words that are unfolding for me as these Tales unfold are quietness, humility, respect, wonder, embrace. What have others got?

Maybe it's the 57 years - we'll see how they are after next year's premiership😉 - but I can't help thinking these boys stand apart for the character of their reflection, from the other teams who have been able to reflect on a premiership.

Sometimes players and supporters forget the band of trainers who go to every game, getting very little reward for their efforts.

The arrive well before the game and stay well after the game and do the training sessions.

When I was at the club the players trained around 5pm to 7pm but we where there at 4pm to 8:30pm 2 days a week and match days we would start with the reserves and senior so we attended at 10am to 6:30pm.

These people should be remember even though they did not kick a goal or handpass to a player but the show does not go on without them.

Maturity beyond their years, selflessness, solidarity. There’s not a single big head amongst them.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
