Sorry to hear about your foot Jane. Old age stopped my running career but I have found a great substitute in cycling( leisurely pace of course). Give it a go if you already haven't done so. Go Demons!!

I take spin classes Bobby but would never cycle here in Melbourne. The roads are crazy where I live. Perth must be a more cycle friendly place than Melbourne despite all of our bike lanes!

Great effort by Jess - a true Demon spirit effort - let's hope it inspires the footy club AND the supporters to finish off the season in a spirited fashion.

If anyone is interested, she has a website, including some interesting blogging. Not a huge site or a whole pile of content, but a bit of insight into the exceptionally disciplined and focused person she is.

Don't worry about her acceleration, or injury. When Jess gets drafted she will switch her training program to develop the required strengths, and she has already shown she can manage injury through one of the most grueling training programs there can be,particularly when it comes to coping with niggles.

Can't remember what sport she was in before switching to marathon, triathlon maybe? Like Nathan Jones, and with the same work ethic and consciousness of improvement.

Take a small positive out of a cr@ppy injury, at least he was able to see his sis bring home the bronze live. Fantastic effort from her, sounds like she's continually improving so congratulations to her.

(Oh and Jack should've given her a Dees flag to fly as well!)

Sounds like he is preparing for a " tour de pants".

Some riders are good up the hills- and some like a fast decline.

I'm good at crevassing.

I've heard the cobblestones can give you a real knee trembling.

I imagine you waiting at the rear of the pack- ready to come from behind.

I picture you in Lycra now- I'm scarred for life.

Was rapt to hear the news this morning and happy that Jack was there to share it ( although would prefer he was fit and still playing for us).

I am in total awe of all marathon runners. I've been trying to improve my running since the start of the year and my pace per km over 5 km is still about half as slow as the pace they hold for 42 km. If I was to run alongside them, I reckon I could manage that pace for maybe 200 metres. They are all simply amazing.

The vending machines in Tokyo might be your best bet.

You'd struggle to get near Jess with your health issues.

It's time you trawled the bingo halls and CWA scone teas for some action like poor old DC.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
