Yeah I forgot Johnstone and Farmer.

Wouldn't it be a totally different team for 2000 onwards?

He was there today but there was no training so hard to tell what his injury was and I forgot to ask him.

Gawn should hold the until the club don't want him captain. I doubt the playing group wouldn't want Gawn to captain the club. He's a terrific leader should be captain of the Vics.

I'm in one of the first photos getting my jumper signed by Sharpie. I can't believe it I'm famous.

Thanks for that I'll try and make it for the captain's run. You need some gluten free sauages to get in the 23.

Great to see it as such a success. Will they be having more events on Saturdays? Even training I think you will get more to training on a Saturday than a Friday. You would get me to more training sessions on a saturday, I'm free Saturdays. Fridays I have other stuff to do.

Gluten free stuff falls apart. I have a friend that's coeliac and it sucks you can't eat hardly anything.

B: Jetta, May, Lever HB: Brown, Rivers, Whelan C: Brayshaw, Oliver, Langdon HF: Petracca, Schwarz, Yze F: Fritsch, Neitz, Davey FOLL: Gawn, Viney, Jones IC: Salem, Bruce, J.McDonald, K.Pickett, Green EMERG: Robertson, T.McDonald, Rivers

I went got there at 7:45 and left at 10:00 once Robbo said the players were leaving I thought it was time to go. I didn't notice any of the girls traning it must have been the Casey girls. Got all the autographs except for the absentees in Langdon, Fritsch, T.Mac, Bowey and Sparrow and the coaches Riv, Chaplin and Jonesy. Even got Robbo's autograph he's still a legend in my eyes. Selwyn didn't think he was worthy of giving an autograph but I said you keep the boys going your a star so he gave me an autograph near the Demon Army tent. I also got Kingy's autograph near the tent. He said I'm not sure where we will finish but we will be playing some exciting football. Also got Kentfield autograph near the tent, wasn't sure if I got his autograph on the ground so I may have Kentfield's autograph twice on my jumper. Saw him get a hug by I think it was Ghost writer. I was too scared to ask who she was because I'm afraid my idols will let me down some how. So remember this Ghosty when I go to a captains run on Saturday I want your autograph on my jumper because we all know you are the greatest training reporter on Demonland. Great to see most of the squad injury free. The ones in rehab Viney, Matthews, Moniz and McAdam should be in full training after Christmas. Didn't ask Hendo how his rehab is going as I forgot. Melksham said his hamstring was only minor and no problems there. Said to Trelly "Little Kosi" he said he wanted to be known as "Big Kosi" as I expect he is taller. Brought a Melbourne cap and scarf plus brought myself a coffee and a sauage sanga with onions it was a good day.

I'm going Saturday Ghost writer. Will it be a serious session?

Well that takes her out of the equation. I'm looking for a tall back for our first pick and a pure midfielder for our second pick.

What about S.Johnson and C.D'Addario? They sound pretty good to me.

Who do you think we will be taking? I have no idea.

Dethridge won’t get a contract then

Is Austin ahead of Gall? Gall is promising but hasn't done a whole lot. We need someone to replace Zanker hopefully one of Gall or Austin can do that. This best 21 is dedicated to Demonstone while he continues to give me positive feedback I'll continue to do it. B: Taylor, Gillard HB: Goldrick, Lampard, Chaplin C: McNamara, Purcell, Mackin HF: Fitzsimon, Harris, Wotherspoon F: Hore, Austin FOLL: Pearce, Hanks, Heath IC: Paxman, O'Hehir, Mahony, Bannan, Campbell EMERG: Pick 9, Pick 14, Ebert Rest of the squad: Pisano, Gall, Dethridge, Beasley, Horisk, Rigoni I expect A.Mackin and Hose won't be given new contracts.

We only have 2 of our best 23 out long term in Bowey and probably Viney, the rest are coming back from injury or only a month out max. What's Melksham's injury?

New 23 B: Lever, Petty, Jiath HB: Salem, Turner, Lindsay C: Culley, Steele, Langford HF: Chandler, van Rooyen, L.Pickett F: Fritsch, Mihocek, Melksham FOLL: Gawn, Rivers, K.Pickett IC: Taylor, Windsor, Langdon, Tholstrup, Sparrow EMERG: Howes, Laurie, Kentfield

It's a Saturday so I'll be going, hoping my daughter will come for something different. Doubt it though.

As bad as the Birch trade and we all hate Birch.

Edo is dead to me.

He said he's worried about Melbourne then says Fremantle will win the flag. No chance they will just be making up the numbers.
