TRAINING: Friday 13th December 2019
Thanks to all for your efforts on observing training. There’s been a good variety of reporting with great depth leading into Christmas. If our rehab group can be counted on one hand by March we should be doing cartwheels. All we want is a chance to attack the season with a near full list.

Best 18 - one from each team?
Very tough assignment, an attempt without Super Dusty and I just don’t like Dangerfield. B: Laird, Andrews, Lloyd HB: Stewart, J McGovern, Sicily C - Sidebottom, Bontempelli, Polec HF: Tippa, Membrey, Sexton FF: Greene, Lynch, R Gray. R: Gawn, Cripps, Fyfe.

Captaincy 2020
Funnily enough I agree with Dal Santo. Could be in the minority but I’ve felt unsure for a while about Max being solo captain. Max is a marvel captain or not. Personally, I’d like to see them back Jack in as the solo captain for next year and stop the co-captain model and if they don’t, Max is a ready made replacement. I keep going back to the 2018 Elimination and Semi where Viney was just outstanding after missing a chunk of football. My belief is he can get back to that. Either way, I feel we are in a good position leadership wise for 2020. Get May, T Mac and Lever out there full time and the support crew looks good.

Haven’t caught up on all the EPL highlights but that Son goal overnight was simply breathtaking.

Dees Slide in Champion Data 2020 Rankings
We don’t need to worry DL, Cornes has named the 6 teams that can win it and we are not one of them.

TRAINING: Wednesday 4th December 2019
I thought Preuss had big thighs but Trac’s look seriously powerful in the pic earlier. It’s very hard not to get excited about Trac for 2020. Thanks to all for the quality reporting.

Welcome to Demonland: Trent Rivers
There’s a nice little clip which I’m having trouble posting here for some reason on the club’s social pages of Trent and his family reacting to his name being called out. Judging by his reaction it took a while to sink in he’s now an AFL player. The best reaction came from the family dog, thought it was going for a walk.

Half-Time breaks
Apparently the proposal has widespread support from clubs and players. As a fan, I don’t like it at all. Some people want to go for a smoke, some need food and try taking 3 kids to the loo and not missing any action. You will be hearing a lot more of “ Down in front.” They could ask the people every now and then about something like this you know. If they prefer less cool down time just place high nets around the boundary line to eliminate throw-ins.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
Exciting highlight package. Welcome Luke. Wanted to see Bennell in the vacant 24 jumper initially, but with LJ as initials and seeing Jackson out of the goal square the 24 would look good on him.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KYSAIAH KROPINYERI PICKETT
Bit of humour from Kozzie too, running to get the handball from his teammate in that hit clip. These young hopefuls get judged before they even play a game, what a thrill it must be for player and family. Welcome Pickett.

Nearest the Pin
Might as well play along. Jackson Pickett Hugo Ralphsmith, for the name alone.

Demons Decade Quiz
Thanks 39. I was trying to remember if it was Hannan or Trac that put us in front but you’re spot on. We never actually trailed in the last quarter.

Demons Decade Quiz
8/10. Tried to be a smart alec by not choosing Watts for kicking the winning goal in the QB clash. Thought it was another trick question like the top half question as he kicked the sealer. Was trying to remember our player that kicked the go ahead goal. The 186 question should have a pass option.
