My mad keen dogs fan mate worked on this book.  He was awarded the contract on the Monday after the GF.  He accepted through gritted teeth!!

    He's a better man than me... I would've said sorry too busy.

    Yep, he did reflect on the joys and challenges of being a freelance writer.  Footy is footy but work is definitely w.o.r.k.

    Excellent. I shall enjoy it even more, knowing a Bulldog helped put it all together…

    Seeing how it wasn't a "Labour of Love" it is very well done. Tell him he can do it again for us this year.

    Mrs Dw loves it and I got to be in the good books for 30mins.

    After watching highlights of the match sim, I am fearful for the well-being of other sides. Hopefully they can seek counsel from friends and family after playing us.

    Careful, let’s stay humble.

    I honestly cant remember a year since 2000 where there was so little Pre-season training news. Cold Turkey this year.

    And, PF, we REALLY appreciate your reports and the effort you go to to bring them to us.  Just a pity there aren't a few more warriors down there who can help you out!

    Again PF I appreciate all those who write reports especially if they negotiate some Joe Blake’s on the way. 
    long drive from here to Casey. And I would need to arrange the required permits.  Or I could keep going up to the Gold Coast,  or further.

    all the track watchers. Keep it up! Cheers

    It's not the travel, casey or the snakes.   Its the bloody fence.  You are so far from the action without any elevation and looking through a cyclone mesh fence, it's so difficult to make out players and especially those half way up the ground.  Half have tabbards on so you can't rely on numbers either.

    The travel (for most) and the fence/distance is a huge deterrent. 

    I’m usually good for at least two pre season Training sessions but both those factors have kept me away. 

    The lockout and the MCG sized ground and better surface are the reasons we’re training there.

    I’m pretty sure he had both last year. He has a premiership tattoo on his other ankle (not pictured) that would be new. 

    EDIT: The mountain is new ie: after the Grand Final

      The Demons hit the road for their last practice hit out before the start of the 2026 AFL Premiership season when they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

      It's finally Game Day and the Demons, under new head coach Steven King, will run out onto the field with a new looking lineup and a brand new midfield when they take on the Kangaroos this afternoon at Casey.

    • TRAINING: Wednesday 18th February 2026

      A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers were blessed with some beautiful Wednesday morning weather to give their observations of one of the final open training session at Gosch's Paddock prior to our first practice hit out against another team this weekend.
