Back Tracks: Adam Ant - The Second Disc

Well, I'm standing here looking at you

What do I see? I'm looking straight through

It's so sad when you're young

To be told you're having fun

So unplug the jukebox and do us all a favor

That music's lost its taste so try another flavor

Well, I'm standing here, what do I see?

A big nothing threatening me

It's so sad when you're young

To be told you're having fun

So unplug the jukebox and do us all a favor

Antmusic, antmusic, antmusic, antmusic

Antmusic, antmusic, antmusic, antmusic

Don't tread on an ant, he's done nothing to you

There might come a day when he's treading on you

Don't tread on an ant, you'll end up black and blue

You cut off his head, legs come looking for you

So unplug the jukebox and do us all a favor

That music's lost its taste so try another flavor

Antmusic, antmusic, antmusic, antmusic

So unplug the jukebox and do us all a favor

Aiden Johnson could be a fantastic get in the draft 

The Club wanted to get in a bit of “mongrel” after last season….

So is he the upgrade on

Aaron van den Berg 

Thoughts anyone

Thank you all for the reports and pics.

Beginning of winter where I am with FCW (....... the last two words are 'cold weather')... snow on the ground and a cutting breeze that does not bother to go around you.

Warms my heart at least to read these posts.

again, Thank you.

I [censored] love this thread. 

I’m fully aware it’s November, and the other 17 clubs probably have the precise same vibe from their trackwatchers right now. 

I don’t care. 

Give me Clarry and Trac smiling and hugging. Give me Turner’s determination, and Kolt’s intensity. Give me draftees tackling our premiership players 12-36 hours after not even being on our list. And even give me little nuggets like Petty to defence or Bowey up on a wing.

Hook it all into my veins. 

Thanks to all who go and report back.

Great to see Trac back and firing. Oliver was the reason we finished so low this year. He's now fit and firing. I'm calling it now we will make the 8 maybe even top 4. Can't wait for the season to start.

van den Berg will forever have my admiration for his stunning hit on Pendlebury.  A classic example of how to deal with a player dropping at the knees to milk a free.

So am I right in thinking that the only players yet to join training so far are May, Gawn, Billings, Langdon, Melksham and McAdam? And that they are all due back on Monday?

Edit: I missed Pickett

Bomberblitz have a "Melbourne Deathride" thread and their consensus is that we'll finish near the bottom.

I'm much more inclined to agree with @WERRIDEE.  We haven't lost a game for three months!

    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.

Still no number on Campbell’s

    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. 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
