Went today, along with about 50 journalists

The whole list trained apart from Nev Jetta who I didn't see

Rehab - Gawn Taggert and Cook who all left early before main session started

Rehab - Sylvia (about three weeks away), Jurrah, and Martin (assured me he was ok)

Lots of match simulation

Any questions will try and answer

Posted

was there a big hooha when they broke of into backs, mids and forwards group? Was there rumblings that they should be trained individually rather than in discriminatory groups ?

Are they still doing alot of running?

How was the vibe/feel of the place amongst the players?

Petterd asked him and he said he was ok to go...seemed confident he would get a gig Tapscott said he needs full game at Casey Dunn, did everything like he wants a game in Perth, including a 70 metre kick for goal which flew through about half way up McDonald same as Dunn minus the bomb Magner did the whole session - what injury? that may be All the players were really up, looking at redemption, the session had bits of everything, but they all worked hard

Spoke to Strauss, the leg gets a bit sore after games, but getting better and better, really [censored] off he was knocked out at Casey, just wants to play a game all the way through, pleased that he is way ahead of where everybody thought he would be.

Spencer is up and running, Leigh Williams will prob make an appearance for Casey this week and looking fwd to it

Will answer any other questions tomorrow...other things to do now

Green gave me a hearty hello and worked hard through the session, most of them did (Moloney, Jamar), Davey was bombarded with journalists when he tried to leave the track, Mitch Clark played bodyguard

Leave your questions, will answer them tomorrow if I can, tried to lift the mood a bit, we need to..

Best bits today...shook Magner's hand and congratulated him on debut, asked for same again and he said "too right"

The more familiar faces being stopped and asked for photo or autograph, Josh Tynan walking away without even being recognised, had a laugh with him, and told him that will happen if he keeps playing the way he does

Thanks heaps mate, really appreciate that. Magner had a bit of a wobbly ankle last Saturday, didn't look bad but with our luck I was wondering how we went today.

Dunn, did everything like he wants a game in Perth, including a 70 metre kick for goal which flew through about half way up

Dunn on a wing might be a good move? At least if they persist with long bombs to the forwards, he may be able to clear the lot and score.

Bailey played him as a mid. Came very close to ending his career.

How did Jamar look?

was Thomas there? (tongue in cheek)

Thomas doesn't need to be there - he knows it all without trying. (tongue further in cheek)

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
