I went down to training and made a few notes: In order: Gawn started with a kick to kick drill with one of the coaches only the ball would drop short and he would have to predict the bounce etc. Da

Club twitter says open training is on from 9.45 am at Gosch's Paddock tomorrow.

If anyone's going down, could you please keep an eye on Mitch, Jack T, Chris Dawes and Max.

I will try and get down there since I have the day off Uni. I will also try and take photos of those 4. No promises though.

They are now doing a drill where they have to get the ball out of a congested area, with one group tackling and the other trying to get the ball out.

Viney looks pretty good at this as does Rodan. Barry also looks quick around the packs.

Dawes and Blease working together doing sprints.

Sounds like Dawes hammy injury is no longer an issue?

He looks fine to me, looks like they are putting he and Blease through an agility test.

Kent doing sprints with Bail, but there is something special about Kent. He looks hardened and ready made.

How's Mitch Clark going?

Clark looks good. He hasn't lost his skills and he still oozes leadership out on the ground.

I reckon he will play round one.

Pretty standard rehab procedure I would presume. Lifting intensity from jogging, 1/4 pace, 1/2 pace, 3/4 pace, 90% through to repeat full pace sprints until they are 100% fit.

Could JT and Mitch both be fit enough for Round 1?

Mitch will have no fitness base and JT won't have enough to play as a mid for the whole game. I hope they play but I hope they are fit and firing first.

Isn't the word out that Mitch Clark will be playing for Casey in a practice match against Port Melbourne next week? If true, I suppose that will give some sort of indication as to his level of match fitness, from which the club can make their next call.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    TRAINING: Wednesday 11th December 2024

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
