Lobb is leaving because his partner wants to return to the eastern states. Nothing to do with issues at Freo

We should hook her up with Jacko.   :)

Agree.

It's a bit weird because I think their  biggest need, by far, is a couple of high quality big bodied midfield bulls to compete with the bontempellis, cripps and Oliver types.

 

Nat Fyfe is probably that mid

Using a few assumptions, he would’ve earned the equivalent of 1,692,900 Qantas frequent flyer points over the course of his playing career… surely they give him the chance to crack the 2 million?  Cruel.

Worthy of another year for sure. At 37 unlikely to be that expensive either. Strange decision

Shades of Boomer Harvey. Get rid of one of your best because, you know, age!

It makes you wonder whether they are serious about the business of winning a Premiership. Mundy is an awesome player and I'd still rate as among their best players.

It’s reminiscent of North forcing Brent Harvey out when he was in blistering form at the back end of his career. And look at North now…

But this is just a snap shot in time. Just like we could have said the same about the Dees in 2017 - 'And look at the Dees now' - yet 5 years further on - we still made the same decision re: James,  'And look at the Dees now'.

I guess what I am saying, is the decision to end Boomers career,  has no baring on the future of North, just like James McDonalds' had no baring on where we are, and similarly where Freo will be.

The case can be made that it slow tracks development though getting rid of leaders too early. Could it be done better?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
