  1. That is so true Mono the day we did Simpson Gap it was -5oC T 6:30 and a pleasant 22 when we got back.!!
  2. I would strongly recommend that any demons that haven’t been to Alice it is a great opportunity to visit the Red Centre and get to see the Dees play at an excellent Regional ground. The indigenous kids love the game and if you are as fortunate as us you could get to stay in the same Resort as the team. I would also recommend a visit to Stanley Chasm and Simpson Gap via a bus tour whilst in Alice Springs a real eye opener and quite emotional.❤️💙
  3. Jeff was a bit of a freak absolutely loved watching him leap all over his opponents, shortening the run up took away that great advantage. Looking forward to seeing Kalani.
  4. Verral is a good size for an 18 yo.!! Addams and Jefferson look very similar in size.!!
  5. I thought he looked a bit like Chris Lamb but hope is a lot more successful.!!
  6. Rather than call him a project player I would think that he is a developing KPF that the club have high expectations for, as is JVR who is one year into his career and looking the goods.
  7. Clayton is looking lethal.
  8. Clayton has an Attila the Hun look about him watch out oppo.!!!
  9. They are both mobile with great hands, Cadman looks slightly ahead build wise but both players read the play so well. Jeffo needs 6kg this pre-season and another 6-8 over the 2023 season and watch out.!!
  10. Have a great holiday Kev, Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family.!!!!

    Agree layzie they could force their way into the top eight next year, they have talent to burn, just have to hold onto it.!!
  13. Having been born in 1945 I grew up in a very different country my wider family and their friends either served in the military or had family and friends that had and knew people who were killed wounded or captured by the enemy. We fought the Germans and Italians in the desert, the Germans over Europe and the Japanese in Malaya, Singapore, New Guinea and Indonesia. There was a lot of prejudice and hate towards the Krauts, Eyeties Nips and Koreans. Whereas the Greeks, Free French, Chinese, Russians, Poms and Yanks were our allies.My father-in-law served 3.5 years as a prisoner of the Japanese in Changi, Burma Railway and in Japan working in a coal mine not far from Nagasaki and held the Japanese in the lowest contempt. As a country I have witnessed a huge turn around in how we treat and think about people and our differences but sadly we still have a long way to go but I have confidence in my children and grandchildren to continue to improve this country that we live in.

    Or extreme pressure all across the ground and grind them relentlessly ala 2021 and hurt them on the turn over and of course by kicking straight.!!

    An excellent but aging group, always hard to beat particularly down at the Cattery, we have to aim to emulate their longevity and long term success. May we put them to the sword in 2023 and beyond.!!!
  16. Agree dj thanks Kev and all posters this is the time of year when we can see the potential in all our draftee’s and hope that they all succeed whilst knowing just how hard it is going to be for each and everyone of them to reach the pinnacle. Love the training reports please keep up the great work.!!!!

    Me too SotD. Feeling very happy about these two.!!
  18. Thanks LD-vic, summed up my feelings about Demonland perfectly, the content provided by Demonland and platform facilitate so much informative, humorous and varied opinions that I find myself drawn to this site far more than my better half would like. Anything worth knowing about the Dees and footy in general I find here. Thanks Demonland.!!!
  19. True JimmyG but keep in mind that Jeffo starred against players in his own age group so our dieticians and fitness staff will be working overtime to build up Jefferson, Addams, Verral and Kyah and top up Rooey for 2023. These boys are out future but you can’t put limitations on them either.

    Pies have a very good list.😪
  21. It’s funny saying this but I tend to study people pretty closely body language, expression how they interact with teammates, coaches and the enemy. I look at Bowey, Spargs, Sparrow and JVR they all ooze confidence and know they belong whereas I look at Laurie and to a lesser degree Jordon and they look less at home. They both need to step it up a lot, talk more catch the coaches eye be a bit more daring.!!!
  22. I will really miss Gibby he added to our clubs family and human flavour I looked forward to his Gus and Gawny and after game segments with the players. It takes a lot of effort and good work to build that strong rapport with a playing group and supporters. It’s a bit like losing a friend.!!
  23. Good luck Fraser Rosman make every post a winner at Port.!!!

    Agree wwsw they have too much talent to miss the finals again, they pose a real threat to the competition and will shake up the top eight.!!
  25. Very thorough.!!
