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: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.

    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
