Hi all, this is my first post but been reading Demonland for years.

I went to training at the Junction Oval this morning.

A quick summary for you all:

Garland trained the entire session and did not seem hindered by his knee injury from last week.

Tapscott, Gawn & Jurrah were completing a number of 100m 3/4 pace & sprints for about 15 minutes while the rest of the group were inside for a team meeting. These 3 then proceeded to kick with each other for 10 minutes. Tapscott & Gawn also spent some time kicking for goals & then off for a bike ride.

Coaches spent some time with Gawn on his kicking style.

Jurrah joined in with the main group for the rest of training. He looked fit to me.

All emergencies joined in for training, as per usual.

Simple short skills session that lasted about 45 minutes. Handballing drills, bit of kick to kick, end to end drills and some goal kicking.

Plenty of talk & generally clean ball handling seeing the ball was a bit slippery.

Overall the boys seemed to be switched on to me. Hope it follows on into the game over the weekend.

Kyle looked ok to me. Nothing really to report, other than he is a tank!!!

Frawley did leave early but he seemed ok, maybe just precautionary (hoepefully).

Great work SARS....love these updates!!

It was mentioned yesterday that Scully may not be in the side this week - to put any fears to bed did he train fully?

Fingers crossed for Chip that all is well.....he has half a hand on an All-Australian jumper IMO.

Scully trained the entire session and moved well.

There was nothing in his training today that would suggest he wont play.

Magnificent to hear that Liam is looking maybe closer to return than expected.

Will be very interested to see Gawn and Tapscott when they get into action.

Thanks for the report - always appreciated.

Any news on Fitzpatrick ???? Does anyone know much about him other than he is very tall and athletic?

Bailey said he and Trengove trained really strongly and are itching to get out there...

:D

It's ridiculous how much we already rely on them.

Mono,

I have seen Jack F a couple of times at Casey. He moves quite well for a big fellow but is still not confident to get into the thick of things.

It is too early to make any judgements but he is certainly the right body type for a mobile ruckman.

I think he's the one who's going to take longest to get going out of this year's crop. He's very thin still and has had his development slowed by CFS. I don't think we'll see him in the senior team this year. Maybe next for the experience, but I wouldn't stress if not.

We know what Jurrah can bring to the table

Taps as a forward could be good and Gawn we need to be good - both could be keys in deficient areas

Taps also seems to have ripping foot skills

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
