It's a shame that the GWS game is next week and not in a few weeks, they would've been the perfect opposition to roll him out to for the first game. Perhaps the last round, bring him in similar fashion to what we did with Grimes a few years back. Just give him (and the supporters) a taste of what's to come.

Sounds like he's raring to go, not surprising, must feel like a caged animal!

Glad to hear Toumpas is back healthy again, I really want him to do well, and he's shown glimpses but nothing concrete yet.

Thanks for the report Saty.

Unbelievable that Pedersen has to miss a few weeks and have Surgery but Merrett gets off free! Disgusting MRP!!

He did everything, if that is what you mean, the whole session, so kicking, tackling, ground ball, end to end, he was moving really well, even had Salem firing kicks at head height from about 5 metres

Hogan playing a game is probably the only thing that could raise my care factor from negative ten to two, maybe three, hurry up and kill the season.

Go Rams!

I hope Toumpas returns to the seniors before the end of the year.

Would be good to see the Toump, Salem and Hogan get a run before the end of the year, would much rather the kids play than blokes like Tapscott

I'd be surprised to see the Toump on the play again in the senior team this year. You can lose a lot of conditioning after a surgery like that. Best thing for him would be to look towards the pre season and start fresh. Maybe get in the last 2 games at Casey

Cheers for the update report. Can't believe Merrett didn't cop a suspension.

You must be naïve and / or have not been watching MRP rulings, if you believed that there would ever be any consistency or honour in their rulings.

I am not sure whether I should be more concerned were they proven corrupt or merely inept

Disgusting MRP!!

His Coach joined the long line of commentators who were stunned he wasn't given at least 2 weeks.

We have to learn, as someone already said on here," the head is sacrosant, unless it is a Melbourne player." Sylvia says "Hi" to Eagle Josh Kennedy.

That was part of my weighting.. It just flies in the face of what everyone ( nearly ) thought would be the outcome. He ( Leppa) is like the cat that got the cream, cant believe Merrett is still selectable.

The MRP isnt even a joke.....theyre funny...the panel isnt

It's funny because after last week's game I was as disenchanted as I have ever been, but now with another game closing I have it back.

I think it's the feeling (or desperate hope) that the boys will be intent on making up for what was their absolute worst effort of the year.

I want to see what they can give us the next few weeks, and I will be seriously p$#@ed off if we don't win at least the GWS game.

We can say farewell to Strauss, Nicholson, Blease and McKenzie without a backward look. There might still be more to learn.

Apparently you can do whatever you like against a Melbourne player and not get suspended, but God forbid a Melbourne player do something that has a whiff of controversy - just check out the Jack Viney and Jack Trengove results - still can't believe Trenners copped 3 weeks for something no one else has ever been cited for!!

That stills hold the record for me. Suspended for an attempt, which the other player avoided and fell to the ground hurting himself slightly.

That could only happen to a Melbourne player.

I could imagine what the Scott brothers would have said if he played for them.

    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

    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

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
