No Oliver will be interested because in theory Sparrow should play as a full time on baller. it'll be great to see how he goes.

He’s the bloody future 

Future of what? He can't defend and doesn't offer enough in attack. He's had an ok first season at the AFL level but needs a massive preseason rather than be gifted any extra games. Has to come back stronger, more physical and more willing to get the ball.

For everyone talking about the game style right now both good and bad I have an question for you and I'm keen to hear the responses:

- Would you like to see us attempt to play an attacking, free flowing, 'through the middle' style of footy and see us try to develop this even if it means potentially being smacked by 10 goals plus?

OR

- Do you want to see us go up there and put up a fight with the strangle approach we used against Port? It won't be pretty but if executed we may lose by a small margin or even get a win.

Keen to hear your thoughts. 

Hate to be all Ted Lasso but i'd just tell them go out there make the supporters proud and have fun aha. I get its not super professional and very juniors-like but what else is there to do at this stage of the year.

I'm anticipating quite a few changes to the list and gameplay next year so these 2 games are a bit meaningless.

Given Goody’s comments he has to play this week or next.

I would like to see Sestan given a run. 

After a promising period mid season I reckon his last month has been horrid. 

A pity as I think he's one of the more intriguing players on our list

Fair enough but I would still give him a run this week or next week to see how he reacts to the situation and to give him some clear incentive over the off season.

These next games mean something...but the opposite of what they usually do, we want to lose them and want others to win to give us a better draft pick potentially.

Winning them won't achieve anything and supporters know that at this stage for 2024.  Winning would be a waste, not to mention a meaningless risk for players like Gawn.

What do we want out of 2024 at this late stage?

Our season is cooked, so how do we get the best result from now for the MFC.

Do we know if Fullerton can play at AFL level or do we just leave him at Casey until we delist him. Drop Gawn, in for medical,

Bring in Jefferson for 2 matches after telling him this is what AFL is like and strive over preseason to get there

Use the remaining 2 games as a positive for 2025, if in doubt play them.

Whats the worst that can happen? Lose 2  dead games, have a look at players and possibly improve our draft position.

It wont matter to the vast majority of our supporters, they wont go anyway, Petty will still be a forward, at night, cold, dark or just couldnt care. Let us see the possible future and enjoy the DEES at the G. For now!

I know it won't happen, but I'd love to see Fullarton come in for the two remaining games and JvR played forward for 100% of both games.

Saints should beat the blues. They are decimated by injury. West Coast should beat them too. It may also be a double benefit as saints might get first round compensation for Battle.

I do think we are a chance to win either of our games, though won’t be favourites.

Listened to Dwanes world the other day did anyone else catch Chris from Camberwells take?? He reckons Goody will be gone by seasons end. Now I know everyone has an opinion but for some reason I have a sneaky suspicion that he could be onto something here!

So far no announcement re Jeffo. Am I the only one that senses a lost opportunity on behalf of the club to blood this player based on very good recent form? The club has missed a Golden opportunity here to give the supporters something to look forward to. Very disappointing!

    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

    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.

    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.
