Boys on the Track!

Obviously 'unofficial'. Saw them too. Half in their private training clothes. The Russian was there, as was Grimes, working with the young guys. Tappy, McKenzie and Pickles all there too.

Hopefully this indicates that they see the added importance of showing up to day one of preseason fitter than they've ever been.

Good on them. Obviously the new found professionalism is rubbing off on the playing group. Big year this year. Roos has already promised a bloody hard preseason.

Very interesting.

Tapscott would be close to be delisted in the next two days but can be delisted for the next lodgement before the draft. I will buy nothing more than a couple of weeks. They may be looking at the Rookie List.

Evans (Pickles) might survive due to an inability to get someone in the PSD and also the fact that he is contracted for next year.

Agree.

Have a feeling Tappy might be delisted and then rookied like Jetta was this year.

He, of all of those ooc has the most ability in my view. He's just so damn injury riddled.

I hope Roos gives him one more chance and he gets a run at a full pre-season, and finds a set role to come into.

We've had enough injury riddled players to last a lifetime.

Not hard enough at it for mine.

My favourite time of the year.

I just hope I don't fall over at the first hurdle (sorry 1st round)

I wish them well, keep your eye on Peta Christie (if you are a 40yo male)

Her dad used to play for Caaaarlton back in the 60's

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
