The best I can do is to try to find out whether they were suspended with or without pay.

BTW, does Stu's missus speak to reporters outside the front door of the family mansion?

Stu's Mrs, a very patient woman, will take it to the highest levels WJ.

I'm not sure Mrs BBO gives a rats anymore about him but I am reliably informed that he is applying for a job as an international sign language interpreter.

We can't let this happen-a war could eventuate.

BBO must be due back in the next few days?

agree he may be a little fired up when he arrives so Biffen and Moon you both need to be on your best behavour. No screw it, just treat him as normal.

LOL

It'll be mascara and Prince Alberts at 10 paces.

Keep BBOs hands tied, I say. He likes it that way.

Wouldn't it be funny if Stuie's missus was spotted speaking to reporters outside BBOs mansion. Tongues would wag on 'land.

Went to training today and the boys looked good. Training appears a bit more intense and quicker than previously. More physical development was evident too.

I thought the same on Wednesday Redleg however it is hard to compared one season to the next as far as training goes.

Glad you are of the same opinion, confirms my thoughts.

Always check the fine print OD

What odds was Mitch Johnson for highest bat?

He is 11s at the moment.

Get On!

Haven't been down to training yet and probably won't until the new year but given that Dave Misson is still in charge of elite performance, it's to be expected that training is more intense this year. It's what he has consistently been saying about the progression in training after starting from a relatively low base a couple of years ago. This was always going to be the year when his training regime would start bringing about some concrete results.

I got 15s. When Smith was approaching 50. Smith now unbeaten on 103, Johnson 39*

Funny game cricket. Who knows? I thought Johnson playing at home was worth a chance when Warner was leading with 60!

He was at 26s for a minute(just before Haddin got out but he could well overtake Smith if he gets going.

Good luck*

Great knock by Smith. Warner having a good series. Johnson great again, this time with the bat and hopefully Smith and Mitch can put the match beyond the Poms in the first session saturday.

Haddin has reinvented himself.

That he has. Every innings he has played this Ashes series, he's gotten no lower than 50 runs.

A timely century from Smith, he needed to put in a good innings.

Rogers needs some good form with the bat and soon. So too Bailey.

As for Watson, looks like Tarzan............plays like Jane.

Thought Rogers was unlucky with that direct hit from side on, as he dived and missed out by inches on making his ground. He looked in fine form with 11 in 2 overs.

First session today will be very interesting. If we can survive and post a big score, the Poms may be completely demoralised and good bowling would most likely see us regain the Ashes.

Keep em in the heat and chasing leather and then put them out to face the pace

They may wilt under the heat of a sustained mitchattack

Today will be the critical day of the series

The poms made the fatal mistake of bowling short in Perth.....Lets hope we don't do the same.....

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    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
