Thanks for the post...interesting to see who is there, obviously Beamer leads the way so Syliva follows! (Surprised Russian isn't with them!), others there, Garland, Jones, Trengove, Gysberts, Watts..great to see Tapscott, Blease, Fitzpatrick and Gawn.

What is the criteria for those that attend on the week off? Seems to be the younger guys but no Scully?

Tapscott is going to be a big solid unit...but that's enough on that topic otherwise I paying way too much attention to blokes with their tops off and I love em all but not going that far!

Not that there's anything wrong with that!

Beamer's been taking the first year guys down there the last 3 years for some boxing training with his old boxing coach as a welcome to the club, get to know your new team mates, and 'HARDEN THE F*** UP' mid season camp during the week off. Did it of his on bat the first year, by the looks of things a few of the older guys were keen to get amongst it this year - which absolutely fantastic to see. Will hold the kids in good stead for the second half of the year.

Absolutely no idea why no sculls though

edit: spelling!

Casey have a game this week, perhaps Scully has requested a game, and Strauss has been a regular, the others are either first teamers, 'injured' or Fitzpatrick being eased into football

What's going on with Watts' stomach? He has some sort of bandage on it?

(hey, I'm allowed to look that closely! demon_cool.gif )

That is a <really> good question. The boy doesn't need any more pressure about anything, but I would love to know if that's a dressing over a wound... not sure what the op would be with a long dressing there though.

More evidence that Beamer is a natural born leader. Should be captain next year for sure!!!!!

I wonder how long it will take for someone in Bay 13 to post that picture of Watts trying to grab Trengove from behind ......

Yeah good point about Strauss, will be playing/training with Casey. Would've thought Fitzy in that case would have stayed behind, hope he plays this weekend as I am looking forward to seeing him out there.

From what you here about Skull it wouldn't surprise if he did ask for a game but not sure the FD will allow it. With the AFL/VFL ratio it would mean someone would have to go back to Casey two's also wouldn't it?

Probably protecting from infection or something - maybe a scratch from a boot on the weekend ???

Scully was probably recovering back in the gym after Trengove got an upper cut in. Who cares... :P

according to the article which had the 2 boys talking about each other, scully was keen to get in the ring with trenners, so it is weird that he wasnt in the photo, probobly suffering from leather poisoning

Being a female i must say not some bad pics there of the lads. Was the young boy in the photo a fan? in the last pic.

Great to see the boys bonding Tapps looks ready to start playing can't wait to see him in the red and the blue. :wub:

I may be way off base, but it looks to me like Jack's gone and gotten a tattoo to mark the occasion.

first time poster, long time reader... have a bit of inside knowledge around the club, so i'd thought i'd share that Tom Scully is not on the trip as he is getting his wisdom teeth out tomorrow

that is all :)

Poor kid, I wish him luck. That was second only in unpleasantness to breaking my knee. But he should be 100% right to go after the split round, which is the positive in all this.

Looksa bloody big surgical dressing - but if it was that he wouldn't be running like that so maybe some sort of cut or rash covering?

Good to see Blease has been working on his upper body strength during his injury layoff..

Interesting. I wonder how long that would keep him out of the team? Will they rest him for the next game as a precaution or is a week and a half long enough?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
