True to my word here are some photos I took from Monday's session which I didn't get a chance to post on the other thread before it got locked.

Please do not derail this topic with any further discussion on certain players etc...thank you!

Has Beamer lost bulk? Or has everyone else gone up a step? In the first photo he doesn't stand out the way he used to.

I think its the combination of the two he has definately gotten trimmed down but i think he looks fitter and yeah we actually look like a decent sized football team now!

trenners_09, thanks for going to the effort of taking these photos and providing them online.

Much appreciated mate.


I've noticed this a few times but does anyone know why Jetta is always wearing a fluro training top? He seems to be the only one that does so.

So players know not to tackle him because of shoulder injury

 

Cale's so thin he doesn't even show up in the photos!

Is that Morton in the 11th photo with the white hat on?

I was told Beamer was told to loose 6kg at the start of pre-season, which he wasnt happy about.

I posted this last week, Moloney was to top heavy last year and he looks like a to me that he has addressed this. There is a big difference between muscle mass and strength. Just because you have big arms doesn't mean you are strong. It is all about power to weight ratio, some blokes cant put on weight but it doesn't mean they are not getting stronger.

Looks like he lost 3kg from each bicep.

he holds a fair few of the weight lifting records at the club doesnt he? (remember him telling tappy not to get any stronger during a bumps and bruises epp). I'd presume that means he wasnt all bulk and no strength?

I believe Magner would be challenging all records in that regard.

In general, the team appears to be in great shape.

Thanks alot for the photos Trenners it's much appreciated.

Magner is massive. Can he kick or is he an in and under handball type?

Beamer is interviewed at around 6:10. He mentions that he wants to get leaner in order to cover more ground.

So I don't think he would have been too surprised that he had to lose some bulk.

In his words, "I like the nitty-gritty".

That said, what I've seen on highlights reel is pretty good from a skills perspective, including kicking. I hope he does well.

I was there Monday and yes they all look bigger, So much so that I had heaps of trouble picking some players names

maybe I need better glasses, Some obvious that I recognised easily, the better known players but all the same

its not easy, Some names on those photos, which are great, would help !!

Go Dees give 'em HELL !!!

And if we can improve or maintain his records at a reduced weight therefor increasing his power to weight ratio he will be better for this.

 

Just looking at a few of those photos, does anybody else get the feeling Chipper is going to absolutely monster some blokes this year?

williams looks massive and ready to go...can't believe how much competition there is for big men in our forward line. what a difference 12months makes.

  • 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.
