Just to confirm that the #49 indigenous boy that's been training with the dees is highly talented NGA prospect Ricky Mentha. Mentha is originally from Palmerston Football Club up in the NT and wi

Been a while since Ricky Mentha's come up anywhere. Gippsland have moved him to half back and looks like the switch paid off last weekend: Stats: 22 disposals, 5 marks, 7 rebound 50s Mentha

Great video with our two new boys! 

Good to know they'll both have a buddy early on. 

A really great little vid.  He does them quite well.  How trippy the boys are again teammates. 

Some talent there .

Good luck Tricky Dicky and umm  Tricky.. ( still working on that I guess 🤣 )

No live rookie pick for us.

AMW might be a cat A after all.

Get an Irish Cat B please!!!

Another Irishman at the Demons would be wonderful.

But besides choosing Ricky Mentha do we have any category B rookie spots left?

Welcome to MFC Ricky Mentha, so glad that you were picked up in the Rookie Draft you could be the trail blazer for the Alice Springs youngsters that want to strive for VFL/ AFL opportunities and I’m sure that Kozzie and AMW will get around you as well as Deakyn Smith at Casey.

Deakyn was delisted a while ago.

Hi Redleg I read on Demonland that Deakyn has re-signed with Casey and Thomastown, so will hopefully see him back in our colours when needed.

Since we call Jake Lever Rick, perhaps we should call Ricky Mentha Jake?

Great article if-you-can-see-it-you-can-be-it-melbourne-demons-recruit-ricky-mentha-jnr-from-alice-springs-aims-to-inspire

He has entered very familiar environment:  stayed with May and Pickett last year now living with Viney, overseen by Whelan and playing with his Gippsland captain:  XL.  Doesn't get much better than that for a draftee!

A real compliment to Whelan: "(He) ... as Indigenous welfare development manager and is widely regarded as one of the best in the business".  

Has to be good for us in Alice that we have a local lad on our list.  Ricky and Kozzie will be very popular when we play there next year.

    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

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
