The final set of photos for preseason 2013. This is it, over and out for this year unless there is a special event that warrants the dusting off of the shutter button.

Hope that I have brought some joy to the faithful during this very low profile onfield preseason (especially in relation to the football media).

Oh, and buy the way: GO Dees!

Enjoy ==> http://six6six.smugmug.com/Other/Training-26-3-2013/28610498_D7r4Dk

Thanks for your contributions. They've been as immense as the quality of the pictures you've taken.

Hope you get a chance to go to Casey Fields during the season to take some snaps of Jesse Hogan.

Thanks so much for the pics your deevotion can't be questioned!

Few points from the photos:

- Interesting how skinny Clarks legs are, as much as I want him to play round 1 I would be happy to see him play another full game at Casey.

- Excited about Dawes looks to have changed body shapes for the better since leaving the filth.

- Geez byrnes looks like a real leprechaun in pic 13 (compared to Spencer) - hopefully he can find a pot of gold for us

- I love pic 23 with Trengove and Viney, I hope they build a strong bond over the next 10 years

- Pick 31 is a funny one - Spencer will always be a lank

- If pick 32 had a player instead of a trainer in the background I would probably frame that and put it on my wall (Toumpas is all class) . - A tribute to your photog skills 66.

- Barry is already adding muscle, I think the Morton/Gysberts days are over - no more 5 year development players

- I can't help but wonder why the coaches have not told Rodan to slim down, his thighs are the size of tree trunks surely that would slow him down.

- Pick 62 and 69, in 69 I thought tappy was growing a dunn moustache but don't worry its just his pointy tongue

- If their was another player other than Jones and Clark that should/could have be in the leadership group it is Sylvia, he just has a presence about him (oh what could have been...)

Thanks again 66

Noticed that too. Extremely skinny. That being said, he NEEDS to be on the field round 1. Most important player for us imo. He adds so much to the team, even when he's not 100%. He's no more of an injury risk playing in the round 1 than he is playing reserves, and an underdone Clark is far superior to the likes of Pederson. No-brainer for mine

I would think that they haven't shrunk greatly and another game for Casey probably will not greatly affect the thickness of his legs. :unsure:

Pic 4 and 15 would suggest otherwise, mate. But agreed, a game at Casey wouldn't make any difference obviously.

Let's just hope he gets up for Round 1

Great stuff thanks - looks like James Magner making them earn it - particularly one skipper.

Thick legs never hurt Ablett ,Ablett ,Dunstall ,Matthews ,Whitten ,Skilton etc.

Kevin Dyson may be the exception .

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
