Kent (who now has a rather cool full arm tattoo),

You are showing your age Saty - it's called a sleeve.

Actually Nutbean or may I call you Kernel, it is not meant to be a sleeve, it is a sailing ship and a compass, said he was getting some family added, as he comes from Clackline, has got me fascinated, other cool tattoo is the one James Harmes has across his chest..edited it read rather good originally

Dean Kent has a tattoo of James Harmes across his chest?

 

everyone was calling Petracca "Truck"....you must be a KIwi?...they call him "Trac' or "Tracca", Brayshaw is Gus, Oscar Mc gets 'Osc" and White gets "Whitey", haven't got the others yet

Missing today Fitzpatrick, Vince and JKH (Dave Misson said he was crook)

Asked Dave Misson about training and Maroochydore, training finishes a week on Friday then back on 5th Jan, week here and then 5 sessions in Maroochydore, so a week and a bit, said no specific heat training, just training in the heat and the humidity, footy will be main focus, probably good away from other prying eyes

Rehab group today Watts, McKenzie, Kent (who now has a rather cool full arm tattoo), Stretch, Spencer, Riley and a triking Jack Trengove

For all the Gawndog lovers, he was pumped today, did 5 out of the 6 drills, as he towers over me, was showered in the sweat that was pouring off him whilst he was talking to me

Another Dunny bit, was doing marking and spoiling drills with Miller coaching and on the bag, Miller stressed that they needed to do it like they were in a game, so Dunny proceeded to put his elbow into Miller's ribs, Miller responded by giving Dunn a fearsome whack with the bag

Howie was showing off his one handed skills, managed to get his thumb trapped in a jumper during a drill last Friday, didn't dislocate but has it heavily strapped

Photos will be on Twitter Demonpk

Always found it strange how in Australia we shear our sheep, but in New Zealand, they don't shear them with anyone...

that's Colonel to you....

 

Any one going to be able to do the Maroochydore reporting for us suckers?

It will depend on what days and time they train. I'm hoping I can do as many as possible from Friday 16th.

Saty - thanks for finding the information out re training times pre and post Christmas. Would love to get an itinerary of their time whilst on the Sunshine Coast.

Send an email to the club asking them billy.

Excellent, anything that you can do will be very appreciated Billy.

On another note, would it be good for Trenners knee be be supporting himself like that?

I have just asked Matt Burgan to let me know if the details are going to be on Club website

I asked him that, it had been checked out, it supports the whole leg, his foot sticks over the end, they had a big scooter there today, looks like his next transport had arrived, it had a big inflated front tyre and small back one

I believe his name is actually pronounced Petrucca, although obviously spelt Petracca. Trac = Truc/k

The more you know.

One other sad thing to report, Tommy Mc who I thought would know better was wearing an horrendous pair of bright orange fluorescent boots today

Another nice bit at training, James Harmes had a blood test early this morning and no sign of the glandular fever so was allowed to fully participate, at the end was told to run some laps, HL ran with him at a serious pace and hammered him, complimented H on his running was very humble, he looks very fit, when he runs he looks faster live than on the television

Trac

Trarc

Truc

WGA...

I'd like to know personally, so I can do him the courtesy of saying his name correctly. People often get my name wrong and I find it annoying.

Fair enough, Nusher.

From what I know, it is like the different ways of saying dance. Think of saying Petracca in the posh way if that makes sense haha.


Thanks Saty, I just worried about our little mate, don't want him getting anything else.

gotta feel for Nosher, he does a great job running the forum and still some fools cant get his name right

Gnasher ?

( you only have yourself to blame for opening this up !)

 

Ive been saying Naysher...

How was Toumpas today? Seems that he has been mentioned in the other recent training reports to date. Is he still going hard at it?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
