He is not on the injury list.

He did not play last week for Casey nor the MFC.

He has not been mentioned in despatches.

SO

Where is he?

    Will probably play at Casey because I can see Moloney and Bate being promoted this week after playing well there last week against Collingwood.

    I dont really know.

    The last thing I saw of his was "The Bucket List"which was a pretty schmaltzy kind of "48 Hours" for retirees.

    Nothing since the 70's has really been any good with him.

    I enjoyed "As good as it gets"

    "The Crossing Guard", directed by Sean Penn was his best movie in last 30 I reckon.

    Heart breaking.

    Last I can see is jaw injury - Nicholson to miss up to three weeks - from the 30th July.

    He would be a chance this week.

    Thanks Paul.

    He seems to be a forgotten man as he hasn't and doesn't appear in any injury list and nothing was mentioned about him in this week's Burgan/Misson injury update video.

    Maybe we are keeping him as a smokey for the finals?

    Included in the squad of 25 for Sunday...

    and "A Few Good Men"

    Rather than take five easy pieces he's been working on his game down to the last detail and by all reports is simply shining. Expect his game, if he is named as one of a few good men in the final squad, to be as good as it gets. He's no easy rider is our Nicho!

    Randall Patrick McMurphy is the one most Demonlanders can probably relate to .

    One of the best roles ever,

    Nicholson just needs to work on.......

    The Last Detail-What a freakin classic bit of film that is.

    My favourite Nicho lines:

    Got to agree with the "five easy pieces" one hardtack

    Still think it is the best ever JN movie.

    Surprised you know it from memory that was 1970

    Great year for the pies as well

    I love 5 Easy Pieces too .

    Anyone seen our man Nicho in "The King Of Convent Garden?"

    Wouldn't 1968's Easy Rider have been his first feature role? Five Easy Pieces was 1970. He and Dennis Hopper were two of my favourite psychos... Nicholson in The Shining and Hopper in Blue Velvet.

    And how could we forget One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest!!

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

    • TRAINING: Wednesday 18th February 2026

      A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers were blessed with some beautiful Wednesday morning weather to give their observations of one of the final open training session at Gosch's Paddock prior to our first practice hit out against another team this weekend.
