Well Demonlanders I will be departing soon on the M1 from beautiful downtown Berwick to Goshville! 

I am fully prepared with Snake anti vax kit (not that I plan to get that close), anti Yowie mating cream, Gossamer hairspray, sunscreen, Vegemite sanger and fishing glove! 

Hopefully I can bring you incisive report in the genre of Robert G Barratt, Stephen King, Lachlan Mc Culloch, Enid Blyton and H.G Wells! If you see me, I'm the one up a tree with binoculars …

Stand by😎

All good WJ, I’m across it. Anyone who forgets the Aerogard or sunscreen is welcome to hit me up. I’ll be the one who’s not swatting flies away.

High flying KPP. I believe he’s signed on with the Casey Demons for 2025 in the hope of getting a list spot at Melbourne in the SSP if a position opens up.

The 191cm, Johnny Weissmuller comes from another sport (swimming) so I would contend, he could be recruited as a Category B rookie. His age could be a problem.

Forget the Aerogard, there are far better insect repellents out there.

Bushman's is stronger and more effective as it has a higher DEET content.

However,  the best I've ever used is an organic product called Nature's Botanical which requires only a small application and which flies absolutely hate.  It's active ingredients are rosemary and cedarwood.

I find Bushman’s too strong as in when inhaled.

watching Storm training rn. They look in great shape but not as fit as our boys. I’m the only spectator which is surprising. They’re super friendly people.

Don't let the fact that he died get in the way of reincarnation as Tarzan or Jungle Jim.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 11th December 2024

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment

    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
