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.

You go straight to the big questions first.

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.

I'm pretty sure I saw spencer and another player last Wednesday doing a whole heap of laps with a couple of coaches looking on too.

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.

Do you have another gig or are you still a man of leisure ?

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

They have contracts for next year, so it's faux shock.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    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
