Earlier this evening the following incident alert was posted:-

A large number fires popping up between Berwick and Cranbourne. Please stay informed if near by

I'm glad I picked Wednesday as the day for my visit to Casey Fields and not tomorrow.

The club website is still announcing that training is on at 9.30am. Tomorrow's top temperature is predicted to be 44 again and, knowing the ground, there will probably be a hot northerly causing some havoc with the training drills. A perfect test for the lads, no doubt if they go ahead with training (I'd start it an hour or even more earlier but what do I know?) ... anyway, I won't be there.

Hopefully, someone hardy local Demonlanders will manage to get there and have the strength to report on proceedings.

POST SCRIPT: The venue has been changed on the club website to Gosch's Paddock. Good luck if you intended on going to training.

Edited by Whispering_Jack
Title changed to accommodate earlier starting time and then changed again to accommodate change of venue. In short we have no idea of where and when

Training starts at 8.45am today due to the heat.

Bureau of Meteorology forecaster Terry Ryan said the mercury was expected to rise steadily in Melbourne throughout the day to reach 30C by about 9am, 40C by 1pm and 44C by 4pm or 5pm - Herald Sun

There was a tweet from "Melbourne Footy" (don't whether that is official or not) that says training is at "Gosch's Paddock"

The club website also says Gosch's Paddock.

You'd want to check before driving out there today....

Finally real sponsors.

Amen. Now if I new what an AHG was I'd go out and buy one.

So training was definitely at Casey. I do wonder if any brave souls made it there. And if they could see anything through the blinding heat besides a lot of players sweating.

Great job by AHG to get a refrigerated truck to training to help the boys out!

This photo looks like Casey to me?

That is awesome, good for the club and good for the sponsor to get some profile. A real win for all here.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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
