got my hands on a camera so might try take a few... alas only for first game, but hey.

sweet as, I'll head down after work. If anyone else goes this week, check out the old buggy and model T-Ford display.... Their from the camp I work at, along with the old frogs looking after them.

haha, not a clue. who are casey demons? I didn't think that was in action yet.

bummer... finished last year. good idea though.

i'm excited about watching mckenzie play actually... I like the look of him, and liked the way he's been training. Would love to see any flash of what fitzy might do in the future tomorrow.

Anyone know anywhere near berwick where it's likely to be showing?

I'll be coming along.

at training a while back I heard Bartram calling Jurrah Wiz.... maybe it'll live on.

on second thoughts, just had another look this morning, and yeah, its handy having links to all things demons. and thanks for the responses about google chrome... i'll have to work out whats wrong then.

I agree. Just kinda hit me in the face for a second before I realised what was happening. Info is good, just theres lots of it.... other thing I just found out, which might be handy for others, forum pages formats doesn't seem to be compatible with google chrome. or its just me...

I'll turn up Rollo. Just to help out though. Might find a camera and take some pictures or something.

ah the woes of being a working/studying bum. I want reports! (somehow get the feeling I won't have to ask...)

bummer... realised im working till 2. Its in the morning i'm guessing?

just thought I'd point out, Paul Roos, after drafting Rohan, that he wouldn't be likely to play much in his first season. so may be a risk as a starter. Also Wonaeamirri is still only in rehab group, but good luck!

good finds. don't know rockliff, but suprised the other two are that cheap.

I'll get back to the drawing board again then... First year I've actually tried making a team. Other years I throw together whoever would fit in the salary cap. this my much revised team already. team: back: Waite, Bolton, Hansen, Patfull, Kennelly, Ladson, sheppard bench: carlisle, talia mids: Goddard, gibbs, swan, watson, ablett, davenport bench: trengove, bastinac ruck: clark, hille bench: lobbe, gawn forward: chapman, pavlich, tippett, jurrah (?), dangerfield, henderson, veszpremi bench: tapscott, astbury any thoughts?

Thanks, I think I'll try Tippett. Now on the search for the bargain backman! adventures plus. What do people think of Matt Maguire for 101,000?

hey, im looking for a player in a position who can also play ruck, as cover, and so far only found Cam Cloke, who i'm not even sure will get a place at Port. Any ideas?

I don't know the ins and outs of a yoyo test, but if its anything like the beep test, which people seem to say, then no, it won't test his repeat sprinting capabilities at all. Both a 3km trial and a beep test will purely test aerobic capacity. obviously a beep test increases in speed, but the test is designed to assess the capabilities of the aerobic system. Sprinting, will predominantly use another system (creatine-phosphate) which is only short-lasting. In a match, heart rate will be consistently in the aerobic region,hopefully, if higher than lactic acid build-up occurs, and thats what training the system (and of course testing to measure) will help develop, leading to faster recovery, and ability to do go for longer. so... what i think i'm getting to is, testing doesn't measure repeat sprint efforts, but the training will help players recover faster, and therefore be able to sprint more often, as well as, just run at a normal speed for longer.

MAYNE, Chris $220,800 Bench includes: (defence) Sheppard, Carlisle, (mid) trengove, bastinac, (ruck) cordy, Gawn, (forward) butcher, tapscott some players I want to trade already, but that'll do for now.

also, league number for demonlanders is 647040. if you hadnt seen that on the other thread.

B & J, putting two new draftees to start in the mid seems a little risky! (trengove and Martin). i'll bother with my team later. Whats this thing about trading players positions?

i've actually made a second team this year, just to put all melbourne players in it, to see how they all go. hard decision though, out of a midfield of moloney, green, davey, jones, morton, bruce and Mcdonald one needs to get squeezed out for salary cap reasons. hmmm... anyway, in my other team, got macdonald, frawley, martin, sylvia, trengove, tapscott

I'm a dreamteam guy myself. Though also hard to find good reasonably priced players in that this year too! anyway, i started a demonland league, but really open to anyone really. just fill it. LEAGUE CODE - 647040

Do you have a camera stand by any chance? or anyone else?
