Just tuned into the Swans vs Blues game.

"Sold Out", looks like pretty much a full house of around 10,000 or 20,000 I think they said. Looks like a slightly upgraded Casey set up. The ground is in a bowl so the fans a basically sitting on a small hill with the ground below them, would be great veiwing.

Mclean looks really fit but expecting the same run all day but one paced game, Lauchie Henderson is the one I'm interested to see play who came to Blues from Brissie for old pissy pants Fevola

McLean's been garbage for Carlton so far. Probably only 5 touches and having no impact. Looked tired late in the second qtr when he tried to make a tackle but the Swan player brushed him aside.

I know I'm a sounding like a bit of a sourpuss but I hope he becomes an epic failure for Carlton.

with any luck BM CJ can both play against us. Sad thing is it wont be aginst the red + blue, we will probably have to go to casey to see it!

Mclean looks appalling in that jumper, playing about as well

The train going by in the first Q was a dead set classic.

Reminded me of 87 out at the Western Oval! :)

2 touches and 3 tackles, kirk is toweling him... I'm trying to figure out how I had an obsession with him? :unsure:

hahah didn't he, it was Goodes but still he looked F'd!!! Same old Macca, can run and run and run around the tan but on game day he looks like the titanic working it's way around a 'berg

Geez i wish we had recriuted the young Lewis Jetta 2 years ago....Bad mistake FD.

2 goals in 5 mins in 3rd term........ But it is a bit tough to take a relatives recommendation on the next big thing...

Because he was a Dee's player, high draft pick, hard at it, in and under. Unfortunately as some have mentioned it seems (always a caveat) the game might (another one as it is NAB cup) have passed him by with the pace needed for the "modern" game.

Have to say, I don't think much of Henderson. He didn't show a hell of a lot tonight. Kreuzer didn't do much in the forward line either. Given how bad O'Hailpin's kicking is, I think they're in real trouble this year.

Henderson improved late in the game, but yeah they're gonna have trouble finding consistency in their forward line if players like Fisher, Kreuzer and others can't get the ball when it goes up there. Young Yarran was good for the blues though

As Dennis Cometti is want to say, "Never moon a werewolf". McLean is renowned for being shut-down be a taggers; Kirk would have just said quitely to himself "See how many kicks you get now, mate".

Without really wanting to talk about McLean. I did watch some of this game, because I wanted to see the surrounds of the ground and how many turned up.

I did notice after the game Kirk had a few choice words for McLean. Fwiw, each to their own, but if a player such as Kirk offered his hand before a game, I'd shake it.

Also heard during the commentary Robert Walls comment that McLean looked somewhat stuffed (3rd quarter). I thought back to the post where someone commented that Brock came first in the time trial around Princess Park in the pre-season. Certainly no "walk in the park" when it comes to playing the game.

Yeap as stated if I can read lips along the lines of "you won't shake my hand??"

Then after the game Kirk "Yea now you'll shake my had.."

I don't think a sold out game with Sydney is all that to brag about. I mean, if Brisbane was playing on the Gold Coast, they would could a pretty decent crowd. And Blacktown is way more closer to Sydney than GC is to Brisbane.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
