I don't know how to link but on the AFL site there are a lot of great photos of today's training.

    There are a bunch of facebook.

    Those who think Trengove was looking a bit on the heavy side, there's a decent photo of him and I think he just looks to be filling out nicely.

    Howie has some good size about him too and I think he'll fit out quickly.

    Cook looks like Watts when he came to the club.

    Skinny kid, needs a good feed.

    Troy Davis has the body to be playing round 1 by the looks of it.

    Can we paste the pics in here or will that peeve Mr Slattery?

    Actually it is hard to tell from these pics... anyone ever seen Davis in the flesh?

    Dropped in briefly to watch training this morning with the idea of viewing the new blokes more than anything else. I was most impressed with Lucas Cook, who despite his light frame, contested well in the drills. Troy Davis and Tom McDonald are probably a bit overwhelmed at now being part of an AFL squad and I would suggest it might take them a while to acclimatize. Jeremy Howe was part of the rehab group so I was most disappointed that he wasn't flying around taking speccies at training.  :) 

    There were quite a few players in the rehab group and, of course, Aussie was missing.

    I had to leave early so I couldn't ask any questions but a mate of mine told me that went to a lunch in the city where Barry Prendergast was a guest speaker and he did a fantastic presentation on how his team went about assessing prospective recruits for a draft. Given the selections he was working with, he said he was delighted with the outcome. He also went into previous drafts and how he researched players such as Rohan Bail whose selection my friend thinks he might be one of his proudest achievements. Also asked if Max Gawn was capable of getting an AFL game in 2011. Only if he can manage to build up his upper body to meet the demands of modern ruckwork.

    Does anyone know when training moves to Casey Fields?

    On Friday 10th Dec there is a training session at Casey.

    It is also a bit of a Christmas Party. There is a BBQ and some stuff for kids.

    I believe that even Santa will be there!!

    They did the same last year and it was pretty good. Good chance to see the players for those that live down this way.

    Trengove is going to have a big year if his shape shift is any guide.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
