Leave RF out of this discussion.....HE WAS SIMPLY A FREAK ! Cale, as a versatile player with a touch of class, needs to bulk up a bit to improve his competitiveness.....and that includes for a guaranteed spot in the side !

I meant no comparison between Cale and Robbie on talent. Merely that if this kind of forum was alive in Robbies day he would have copped the same in regard to physique

I don't care how skinny Cale is, as long as he's not pushed easily off the ball, do not fear the boy has talent and some of the "skinny" players are b;oody tough

And so it begins. The endless list of ridiculous injuries that seem to plague our best players year in year out.

Brilliant.

Is Morton one of our "best" at present? He is one of our greatest long-term prospects mayhaps...

He has been bloody unlucky with injury the last couple of seasons. Will miss a MAXIMUM first 2 rounds of the season proper.

This has been a bad day so far.....Get well soon Cale. We need you.

Agree with this statement,although Scully's management coming out to say he hasn't signed and they haven't even talked to GWS ,I say is great news.And Morton can still run. do weights etc..and EAT...this may even make him bigger and stronger..

Looking on the bright side he can still keep up his running fitness unlike last year.

Breathe in, breathe out. This is an annoying setback; it's not a great calamity.

Thanks Yoda. I'll make sure to consult you next time I want to express an emotion so you can confirm whether or not it is acceptable.

not a disaster.

Season started in like 7 weeks, he should almost be ready round 1.

He will still be able to run. He'll also be able to do ball handling kills once they put something on his finger to protect it

That sucks. Still, it's something that lets him run and do weight work. He just can't play with a football.

He won't be doing any weights in the next few weeks. His finger will need to be immobilized after the operation.

Jeez. Already some big names coming out of the side and the season hasn't even started yet. At least he's done the bulk of the preseason and can still run. And he won't miss more than 1 or 2 real games.

Midfield/wing rotations will be interesting now.

Well then... blokes like Blease and "Noddy" (Gysberts) now have the opportunity to play some senior footy by filling the void!! :)

    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
