I will post a video of myself on Twitter celebrating in my Melbourne scarf, 

 

fully dressed.

Why does everyone else have to be weird?

I'd be envious if you said "with nothing but my Melbourne sock on".

Drink too much Beer and get a case of Gout. As they say there is no glory without pain.

Bye the Jumper from Offical Memorabilia just like i did last year. If we don't I just sit down and look at the one I brought last year. 

This is easily the most depressing thing I’ve read today. And I’ve read a lot on Demonland. 😭

Will have lost a lot of money like last year although this year I've been sensible in taking a lot more at the line bets. Cmon Dees take my money. Brizzy next week, 18.5 points and 3.20HH. Few injuries I'm taking both.

Nothing. It's just not our year.

Next year on the other hand. Supremely confident if we can really fix our game plan and forward line structure.

Switching off the life support machine already? Sad.

I hope our players don't have the same mindset as some of our supporters... Some of them are basically suggesting we forfeit this season 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

No.

I just see it from a realistic point of view and our inability to not tweak our game plan at all this year to counter these top 4 teams. 

We should beat Brisbane because they're actually average. 

Geelong on the other hand are well drilled across the field. They're like Sydney and are extremely well disciplined and yet have just won a final at the MCG when most of you erote them off as having no chance of winning a final at the G.

Our game plan simply doesn't stand up against these tops sides. Simple as that.

We're also physically banged up. It's very evident last night with the amount of guys we had with knee bandages. Add that to the 5 players that all had to get scans today and proves my point that we're just banged up physically. That alone won't stand up against these fitter sides like Geelong and Sydney who have managed their players well this year.

All valid points. But despite this, there’s still a pulse. And while there’s still a possibility we should not write ourselves off. It’s like a batsman heading back to the sheds before being given.

Regardless what happens I'm extremely proud of the boys this year. Physically hunted all year and still finished top 4.

Aa I've already said. Next year I'm extremely confident we can finish top 3 again if we can tweak our game plan and fix up our forward structure. 

The age and games played demographic is right in the sweet spot for next year also.

All well and good, but maybe talk about next year when this season is done. To do so beforehand is textbook defeatism.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    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.
