I'd bring in Ian Ziering. You don't survive 7 Sharknados without knowing a thing or two about leading young men.

Unless he’s a double agent and in cahoots with the sharks. Don’t need any of those types inside the club

One of the worst actors of all time. Sharknado possibly the worst movie of all time.

Where could we go wrong?

I've been banging on about Nathan Basset for years. Will bang on once again: Nathan Basset. I'm confused why he isn't at the Demons already.

wouldn't go near buckley - he took the filth backwards every year with the exception of 2018 which feels like the exception that proves the rule

i'm definitely keen on stevie j

With you on Buckley. He's a one-man premiership avoidance zone.

Poach the Collingwood ball movement coach

Wouldn't work.
Very few of our players have the disposal skills needed.

People probably though the same of the pies players after they finished bottom 4 last year.

The pies made a granny in 2018, a Prelim in '19 and a semi in' 20.

The idea that their list is less developed or worse than ours is a furphy. 

They have far better balance across their list and they are a much better ball movement side because of this. They can move the ball the way they do because of their list and not their coach. We've implemented a game-plan that is suited to our list's strengths so if we want that to change, list changes and positions will need to also be changed.

Bowey, Spargo, Salem & Petty great kicks.

Salem obviously injured throughout the season after injury in round one and carrying a groin later is season. Hopefully back to best after off season.

Bowey a little bit of 2nd year blues, but hopefully bounces back, wasn’t far off it!

Spargo is often in clear on his own and gets ignored, hopefully they use him as an entry target into forward Line more often next year!

Bucks’ ego is too big for an assistant coach. It’s head coach or nothing for him.

Pendlebury and Sidebottom alone are head and shoulders above anyone we have.
Now they've added another Daicos.
And they didn't have too much trouble picking their way through our famous defence last year either.

Nothing wrong with our ball movement when we played the Lions in Rd 23. Perhaps the pies are better kicks but i don't think we have a fatal flaw in this regard. Coached properly i reckon we can tweak our game plan to be more adventurous and daring

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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
