Does anyone know the training times for this week?

Good question. Up till now training has been at Casey Fields on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8:30am but there was no training on Monday (Australia Day).

The club website is silent about whether it's on tomorrow or Friday.

There's a special afternoon training session one day next week for Past Players and Officials but I don't know if it's open to the public.

Best to call the club and ask.

    I was told they did train yesterday.

    I wonder how the Past Players will go in their training session now they've lost a bit of condition. Some of the Officials might struggle too.

    Saw em training at the Junction Oval today.

    Do you know what do they do at the Junction Oval on the days between the Casey training?

    The Casey training lasts nearly four hours and is running and match fitness based. My assumption was that Junction training was weights based

    cheers in advance

    If it just came through then it's no good for today is it?

    Not much help at all for today.

    Still, look on the bright side, there's almost 48 hours notice of Friday's training.

    Guys,

    Does the weather effect the chance on wheter the guys train at all?

    If the mercury goes up as high as it has in the past few days, I think they will be restricting their time on the deck.

    Gippy

    A poster on Demonology [MK08] went to training in the heat yesterday. here's a summary of his report:-

    • Clint Bartram and Brad Miller showed noticeable direction and leadership on the track;

    • Liam Jurrah was restricted to 200m sprints and laps and surprisingly found the going hard;

    • Jamie Bennell, Sam Blease and Cale Morton did running work while Cam Bruce, Simon Buckley and John Meesen left the track early (not injured);

    • Neville Jetta is exciting, agile, makes great decisions and his sidestep is as good as Davey's;

    • Robbo did strides and pool work by himself;

    • Addam Maric gets a heap of the ball when it comes to match simulation activities, and his foot skills are lovely;

    • Not impressed with Meesen - Jake Spencer looks ahead of him at this stage;

    • There was lots of tackling and physicality in the training. Nathan Jones and Beamer stood out in this area;

    • Jared Rivers and McLean are the smartest players on our list. We desperately need Rivers on our half back line again;

    • Colin Garland now looks comfortable with the MFC and AFL footy c.f. in the past;

    • The boys trained from 8.30am to 11am and were given no favours due to the heat.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
