    We've got the best jumper in the league and the best clash strip in the league. I wouldn't be looking to make any changes.

    If he actually did that he probably should be fired for that then

    Bugger.. had I known it was at Myrtleford today I would have called in a sickie and made the trek down the highway with my young fella.

    Got to squash in Milawa to be told by other locals that training was at Myrtleford.

    Cue jokes about Myrtleford flogging the Dees, avoiding the heartache,... etc,

    I received notice that there were 36 members in postcode 3747 the same day but no notice that training was happening in my backyard.

    And for all those posters who lamented he didn't look happy at the camp and none of his insta posts had him in demon gear, I'd love them to take a big bite form humble pie:  he looks very happy and proud in his demons training gear having fun with teammates.

    Geez Luci, it was just an observation from a couple of track watchers who went out of their way to report back to you guys. The comments made were no different from what other track watchers observe about other players at training in Melbourne. You don't need to shame people because you don't agree with what was said. You weren't there.

    Sources say that when they were up, they were up. 

    It's going to end with a mid-table finish, then...

    Fair comments, djr.  I wasn't referring to your reports which I enjoyed.  If my comment offended you I apologise. 

    I wasn't referring to observations per se.  It was the conclusions by some re Petracca not posting about the club/teammates on IG, not wearing mfc gear on his IG, caring only about his brand etc etc implying he had 'checked out' or 'didn't care' (paraphrasing).  Those trigger the anti-Trac brigade and the off-season stuff is rehashed. 

    djr, shaming others isn't ever my style - if it was I would have quoted them. 

    I just hope we don't spend the year questioning his commitment/behaviour or defending it.  If that happens each week I'll be the one checking out, of DL.  fwiw, I would feel the same if anyone playing for our beloved demons was discussed that way.

    Trac looks ripped!

    If memory serves, he was leading Chas this year until kneed. Could be his year.

    Certainly hope not. 
    Would like to think they have got that out of their system. 
    Much fitter squad this year than the past couple. Whatever surgeries required have been completed before pre-season started. 
    Along with natural improvement from younger players. 
    I hold high expectations as should they.

    Demonland, ignore my smartypants reference to the nursery rhyme. I'm with Disco on the expectations (gulp!) 😄

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
