Carlscum won't make finals next year.

Top 4 next season I would say. Voss has actually shown himself to be a better coach than most gave him credit for (me included). The Carlton list is the right age/experience/quality profile to make the next step.

If any MCC PEEPS have tix to the big dance and don’t want to go let me know. Mrs Super is a long long time Pies person and I want her to go (despite her protestations she wants to stay home with her Demon boys ) - her fam all pies and I have to say generally have a brain and are reasonable.

It's like the square root of a million. No-one will ever know.

Seen this a couple of times lately, you know it's a thousand right?

Those couple of times were both from me and it's a Simpsons joke.

A 3 is easily converted into an 8 😊

That's a pretty long wait for a team that just made a prelim. Unless you're planning on a few in-between, which is unwise cos I think we all know the Dees have got the next three sewn up.... 🥴

But bad luck No. 31, you guys gave it a good shake for your first finals series in a decade. Lots to look forward to.

2028 for the Blues Quintuple ... 5-peat Flag 😝 😁

The Blues window is definitely open now, just need to keep working to improve and evolve, but all the right ingredients are there which hasn't been the case for a long time. I am pretty happy how the season panned out after the horror 6 losses in a row. 

I am still bullish on the Dees as well, just need to look at the foward line set up and perhaps adjust some tactical things. Tinkering rather than wholesale refurbishment that some understandably dejected souls here think.

Would be happy to split some silverware with the Dees up to 2028 😊

I think I've listened to Christian Woman by Type-O-Negative at least 5 times in a row on this bus replacement/train/tram ride back from Mitcham.

It's the only thing that makes me feel good right now for some reason.

Sorry , can't help. Do have tickets to academy awards, Wimbledon men's final, Skylab, birdcage on cup day. Let me know if she's at all interested . Will shout her a frock as well.

The Blues have had their version of our 2018. i’m looking forward to seeing them implode under the expectation of success next year 

unlike us, we smashed it in 2019

These sort of comments are uninformed. Look at Essendon after 2000. Look at Geelong and Fremantle this year. There’s absolutely no guarantees in this game.

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    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.
