I was at training today and Neeld & Todd Viney joined in the clearance/ stoppages drill. They were getting stuck into a few of the younger guys. Gysberts got hit with some big hits from Viney while Neeld was getting stuck into him off the ball.

Not all players were out on the track and those that were there were all doing different drills & tasks. What I really enjoyed was seeing all the coaches getting in and working with the different groups...like the photo above shows. And from the sidelines you can hear Neeld as well.

Aaron was focussed on short sprints on his own for the whole session. The rehab guys were doing different lap running drills...well that's what Ricky said when I laughed with him about being overtaken by Grimes!

LJ is back strolling, jogging laps....dare I say, taking it easy.He's about the only player I can say that for!

Yes I agree what is going on with Col. If he was fit to play in the IR series and now not training what the [censored] is going on?

My guess is (based on nothing other than his absence) that he has been banned from training with the player group a la Steve Johnson, Stokes, etc.

Just not publicly stated because it creates an unnecessary media spotlight.

Part of his punishment - prove that he wants to play AFL enough to train on his own.

Probably not though.

I've not been to training so don't know if he has been running in the rehab group or not.

I went to training 3 times during the last pre-season. On every occasion Col was in the modified training group. I don't know if he has injuries that require on-going management, although i admit it's odd he was available for the IR series.

I believe when he was drafted his weakness was his endurance. The funny thing is - he looks really fit. He's 'cut' and he never seems out of shape.

Maybe he prefers working out with those Zumba dance videos to burning his legs and lungs on the running track.

According to the article in the Hun today (at the bottom) Sylvia must complete his responsible drinking course before being allowed to return to the main group.

Just saw that too. That clarifies things. Let's hope he has a great pre-season.

I wondered if this was the case.

I don't like it. He copped the fine and the suspension.

If he's able to go full tilt and get flogged on the track and have his best pre-season ever, surely that would benefit everyone?

Just an off thought. What's with the new balance singlet and shorts but Nike Shoes?

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 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
