I observed our training session today, and was quite impressed with what I saw. The boys looked very tuned in to what they were doing and were moving quite freely. Get those rugby posts down though.

Mind you, I only caught 5 seconds of it from a train going past Richmond

I was expecting to see us training on the news. Maybe the media were told to go away. Unless they are waiting for Dawes and the other new recruits to join in then they will be down there.

What's more tiresome than hearing that the boys are flying, hardest training ever etc...?

Sarcastic jokes about the boys are flying etc...

We get it, it gets said every year... so do your repetitive jokes.

Our tortured souls deserve comic relief.

If they send me one, I hope it includes an air fare :-)

Hit your kick and come down-- I will arrange pick up at airport.

Already the hardest preseason ever. The boys are bigger, better, faster than ever.

Angry,

The cliche to be used is FFS= not the one we at Demonland normally use, but Fitter, Faster, Stronger

Wish I had a kick to hit :-)

Will hopefully get down there with youngest son in tow for the first game of the season... want him to witness at least one win, to maintain his enthusiasm.

I've been flat chat at work preparing for a week's break so I've been out of the loop for the last day or two but would like to thank those who reported, well mainly Demon Destruction.

Looking forward to Thursday and reports on the open training session by which time I'll probably be sitting on some beach and reading the reports. Much more interesting than some of the old stuff coming out of the Age.

Anyone get to training today?

I am keen to hear training reports. I would expect it to get quite grueling

Apparently Mark Neeld took out the strap. (Big Bertha) The Cuts!!!

I can't wait for the training reports! i particularly love Bhima and Freak's although all contributions are great. Hoping to get down to a few myself this year. Go Dees

Don't forget maldonboy38. He's usually spot on with his training reports too!

Whoops sorry Jack, absolutely Maldonboy is brilliant, this has been my favourite time of year the last 5 years, a little sad, but hey, at least its come around again.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
