According to melbournefc.com.au, there are two open training sessions at Goschs Paddock this coming week:-

Wednesday 12 March - 9:30am and

Friday 14 March - 9:30am

and all other training sessions are closed sessions.

Let's hope that some extra tall timber are in evidence and that one or two can play for Casey at the weekend on the way to a berth in round one.

Is that too much to ask?

I hear they are having a passing out parade for no. 10

The word is he is taking early retirement so as not to embarrass himself any further.

I am with chippy I had to wash my hair this morning.

Seriously I think there is an intra club match this friday so most would probably prefer to go to that.

Feeling optimistic about the intraclub OD?

first match I picked the whites and blues got up

So the next time I went for the blues and the whites got up.

As my wife would say "all in the life of a Dees supporter "

I know we had a terrible defeat on the weekend but the support has to stay. It was only NAB cup and Hawthorn is exceptional. All local melbournian demon fans that are unemployed or not actively seeking work should be on the sidelines making notes or taking photos. Im an interstater... Im dying to hear how training has been since the loss. Does anyone have any updates regarding our forward line. Will Dawes and/or Hogan be playing round 1? Will Jack Viney play round 1? What was Roos like at training?

I did not go but I can confidently predict that Dawes and Hogan will be in the outer with us in round 1

I am nearly unemployed and will be actively seeking work, but have leave that they want me to burn so payout is not larger, so going to go Friday morning at this stage, will put a report on this esteemed forum, doubt whether there is an Intra Club as somebody said, think Casey have another practice game lined up this weekend so assume there will be some MFC players playing. As for the group, spoke to Jack Grimes, everybody is still on the same page and know they either perform or spend the year at Casey, so I assume when I go to training it will be full on

Probably a scare tactic to get the Saints nerves into gear.

For what it's worth I watched Roos talk to Watts one on one for about five minutes today. Was making a lot of hand gestures so I'm assuming he was teaching him a new evasive technique or something.

We also had scouts watching Collingwood training today. Should add fuel to the fire that Roosy already has his team working on poaching players later this year.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
