I’m bored, away for work and there is nothing but the Queens funeral on the ****ty hotel TV.

There a few things that keep coming to mind about things we can bank on for next year. Be creative, semi serious or whatever tickles your fancy. I’ll get the ball rolling:

1. We will get an even shorter break after the bye round.

2. Every double game we play will be against top 6 sides (inc the 2 outside the 8, which will have Collingwoodesque improvements in form, whilst Geelong will have an even easier draw.

3. One positive - we will finally win the free kick count against Footscray.

1. We will be fitter. We won't suffer so many injuries to key players, touch wood*

2. We will tinker with our method, I refuse to believe our coaches won't change things. They know our stars are in the window for 4 years and won't take any year for granted from now on.

3. We will blood youth

Tbh, at some point, the board will look at the coaching staff and expect innovation

I’ll play it safe and say I’m confident you’ll see us continuously bomb the ball inside 50 without lowering our eyes.

I reckon our recruitment of Grundy all but confirms that we do plan to do this, but do it far more often from clearances and stoppages than currently we did with LJ. And therefore make up the 2-3 goal margin we are behind all top 4 teams this year :laugh: Improve goal kicking accuracy and add in a few key forwards and hopefully that adds the 5+ goals that puts us ahead of the pack. The old carpet bombing method.

Hoping for a little more tweaking/innovation/positional changes and yes lowering the eyes more!... Or it will probably come back to bite.. again.

all summer there will be the usual suspects on Demonland bemoaning the fact that we draft incompetently, our coaching team is stubborn and wont tweak our game plan, our medical and conditioning team is second rate since Burgess went to Adelaide, Kosi is going to Port next year, and our premiership window has already closed.

1.  MFCSS will cause posters to look for the dark cloud around every silver lining.

2.  Gameday threads will be best avoided.

3  Clintosaurus will singlehandedly keep the tin foil industry in business.  :D

    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.
