It was mentioned on SEN late last night that our alliance with Sandy has become strained. Apparently Melbourne want some players who are carrying injuries, to go under the knife early, rather than play for Sandy during the finals.

Barry from Beach Road may be able to confirm if true.

The main problem is that Melbourne should be doing what's best for Melbourne, and Sandy needs to do what's best for Sandy and I just don't think that the two always exist in harmony. Our relationship has been wonderful for Sandy, I'm not convinced that we've benfited as much though.

but it is a bit embarrassing that not only is the spelling so poor that some words are nigh on impossible to make out but that the grammar is poor also, meaning there are random words in a row that dont really construct a sentence. no one minds some abbreviations but you have to write something comprehensible...

RIP the English language :(

Seriously though, on alot of forums now some of the grammar being used (or misused) is unbelieveable, bloody sms talk.

Would it kill you to use a capital letter every now and then? :P

no you have a fair point. i am lazy and dont when i use the net. bt i think one can read what ive written and work it out pretty easily...

the spelling is reasonable, and any abbrev. are easy enough to understand. i dont believe the capital letter issue effects anyones ability to read and comprehend my posts...although a 'senior member of the academic community' had a problem when i sent him a 3 line email and didnt use capital letters, the response to which was quite amusing...

A nice thought, but most players would be carrying an injury by about round 20 and still be able to play at 70-80%. If we put the likes of Dunn, CJ, Newton (if he qualifies), etc out for the year to get a head start on the surgeries than we could well be crippling a team that's been so dominant this year. I think it should be up to the player, if he really wants to play in the Sandy finals campaign, chances are he's played enough games for them to feel a part of the team and they deserve the choice.

Many young players enjoy the chance to be a aprt of a VFL finals campaign and win a premiership for Sandy, it could well be a good experience for a few of them.

i think it will be up to the new coach, who it sounds like could be named next week... although if bailey or hardwick get the gig they may hold off until hawthorn or port's season is over...

but if the new coach is named next week, lets say sheeds... do you think he's going to want to put off players' surgery so they can play at sandy? i wouldn't think so...

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

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
