Didn’t even watch the game. Just finished the usual run around of life and checked the scores and laughed and laughed. Gonna enjoy the press conference with a nice glass of red.

So now we are in 9th position. I don't like it.

The weekly press conferences. 
“learnings…” 

Our forward connections have stagnated for the last 2 Seasons and look very similar this year. 
It’s probably a good thing we are “out” of the eight right now, might get the whole Football Department to be more Ruthless and Mean..

unfortunately Goody has to attend those and answer questions. 

Our fwd line is average but no easy answers. We have obviously tried many different options

We have let forward players go to other clubs, and replaced them with inferior talent 

That’s the bottom line

Question without notice:

Why do players these days feel the need to play pat-a-cake after every passage of play?

What would a psychologist make of it, @Engorged Onion?

You know how you get a little kick on Demonland when there is a notification - that’s dopamine. It counteracts symptoms of anxiety and depression.

In effect, the Pat-a-cake is a behavioural activator of the same thing, in a highly stressful activity.  It’s evolved in the last 10 years, where it only used to be done after a ‘positive’ bit of play whereas now it is done irrespective of play and acknowledges the effort irrespective of the outcome or error made by an individual.

It is good for the receivers 🧠 to more quickly get back on task - at least that’s how I explain it.

    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.
