At the risk of a voodoo doll coming my way I thought I would 'out' our hitherto esteemed training reporter now operating under the pseudonym

I have no idea what you’re talking about, Lucifer’s Hero. You must be thinking of someone else, someone slightly deranged perhaps.

Ah, but you know I have a very good 'spidey sense' and Sherlock Holmes type detection traits ... Nope I am not mistaken!

LOL!  It was the 'Interests' on your profile that confirmed my suspicion 🙃

 

At least you didn't post a voodoo doll with 'Luci' photo shopped onto it.🙃

Fair points, but just on the relationship between Trac and his fans - I’m not saying I was personally effected by it

Moreso that his lack of attempts to display anything other than a cursory commitment to the club this year suggests that positive fan sentiment was not a priority for him, and some of the reporting that came out around his intentions of why he wanted to leave also suggests this 

Just like we can’t control whether he goes, we also can’t control if he stays, and I don’t think a few stray comments on a forum will be the difference for him, so let’s not get too caught up in it 🤷‍♂️

Like you have. My opinion.

Guess DH would be a bit peeved if I got my nephew (a Bulldog) to stop by training next Friday when he's driving us home from the airport.  Been a long time since I've been to training.

 

Oo!  I see a Ghostwriter has entered the conversation!  Excellent.

Observations: what i see

Confirmation bias:  creating meaning from observations to fit my belief system or narrative.

Unless you ask him, anything beyond the observation is useless.

All of this Trac is unhappy/brand focused etc inference is without any basis.  

Are you suggesting that after observing a behaviour anything that follows is useless?

That's ridiculous.

I can read behaviour as well or poorly as the next person. Trac did not look happy much of the time (in Mansfield) He trained hard and well (another observation).

Speculation as to why is another thing. I have no idea why. 

I made an observation and reported it, I was not alone. He did smile with the kids. 

I believe you are just as guilty of confirmation bias as anyone else,  lighten up.

Perfect.  Your Observations were insightful, and no BS speculations.

not getting heavy, just sick of massive diversions from the great posts of trackwatchers  into narratives that are presented as facts, not even speculation.

I’m all good, and happy to to lighten up.

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.

You can’t be guilty or not guilty of confirmation bias anymore than you can be guilty of falling for an optical illusion. It’s hard-wired into our brain, like all cognitive biases, and impacts all of us. Part of our evolution on the plains of Africa, designed to keep us safe by making us risk-averse.
 

Not so much on social media, and no, there couldn’t be sabre tooth tigers hiding in the grass at Gotch’s paddock.

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    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
