Those complaining about our injured talls should be happy with this quote from the website.

Well see a number of players returning and playing their first game for the year, including a number of talls: Max Gawn, Mark Jamar, Chris Dawes, Jack Fitzpatrick and Jesse Hogan.

Wed anticipate that the majority of players in this game would be preparing for our second NAB Challenge game in Alice Springs and the following practice match against Hawthorn at Casey.

Sounds like we'll have close to a full list to pick from by the second practice match, fingers crossed nobody gets injured during the NAB challenge. Can't remember the last time we went into a season, or a game for that matter, with anywhere near a full list to pick from.

Go Dees!

Park in Alexandra Ave. near Morell Bridge only 80 cents a hour and walk across the footbridge take you 5 minutes if you walk slowly.

Heard from a reliable source that Panozza, Gent, Best and another Casey Scorpions player will be helping fill out the numbers - good to see Best is still on the Radar.

There was a mention of Clark in the next sentence that wasn't quoted above, just stating that he's injured.

They said today that he has pinged the hammy again and is on rehab for another three weeks. Not a chance of playing round 1 I'd say.

Following on from last night's win, things are starting to get serious at headquarters. The club website reports no open training sessions this week with the exception of the Intraclub practice game on Thursday 20th February. The season cometh!

Dees website says 9:30am Thursday at Gosch's paddock. My new job means I can't get there. Bugger.

Can I just clarify . Does anyone know the time and place of the practice match on Thursday? There appears tobe some confusion. I would be grateful for clarification.

Whats going on with Jack Watts, missed all the training practice matches, was pulled out of the NAB match and now his name isn't listed as one of the talls returning.

Is anyone able to shed some light onto this?

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. 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 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
