I tweeted the Club asking for details of the 3k time trial, wanted to take some photos for Twitter, they said not for publication, assume they just want the run done and dusted, did say there is open training session tomorrow from 9.30am, if anyone wants to attend, last one before Maroochydore.

It's interesting for someone like me who always reads D'land but seldom posts (anymore) the often quite vitriolic posts that are directed to TDI's training reports. I'm assuming DD36 that you also at

That's such a pathetic argument. As long as the attack isn't personal then we are well within our rights to pot players for certain reasons, whether that be skill level, commitment on the ground, wor

Its not open for publication because of the fact opposition clubs send spys down to try and get data down and see who is burning up the track. Most club take this matter pretty serious.

Well, since the Bombers' runs were plastered all over the 6pm news, one can only assume that Jim knows their players will be suspended for the majority of the season and not worthy of spying on.

I'm glad that, for the first time in years, I can hear about the time trials without mentions of Sam Blease coming last

I like that three of our mid-poor kicks finish first, second and third haha.

But it also shows that Bail and McKenzie are are at least trying and who knows what may happen this year (i am one who thinks jordie would be lucky to get a game, but this is a good start for him).

Go dees :)

The club usually doesn't broadcast players' times. They'll tell you how many ran PBs and the order that they finished, but its unlikely you'll find out times.

He ran but finished the 3kms in 5 minutes. The cameras weren't set up in time to catch him crossing the line.

Remarkable. Give him the Brownlow now.

N. Jones, Dawes, Watts and Hogan didn't run. The top 23 all finished within one minute of each other:

1. T-Mac (6 seconds ahead of Bail)

2. Bail (5 seconds ahead of Jordie)

3. Jordie (3 seconds ahead of Grimes)

4. Grimes (7 seconds ahead of JKH)

5. JKH (was stoked with himself, probable PB. Finished 2 seconds ahead of Cross)

6. Crossy (filthy at himself, or just exhausted)

7. Howey (finished right after Cross, along with the next 5 in quick succession)

8. White

9. Stretch

10. Viney

11. Lamumba

12. Newton (elated at finish line, probable PB)

13. Dunny

14. M. Jones

15. Toumpas

16. Salem

17. Vince

18. Brayshaw

19. Harmes

20. O-Mac

21. Pedo

22. Tyson

23. Jetta

20 seconds later were Kent, Michie, Fitzpatrick, Vandenburg and Petracca (absolutely exhausted).
25 seconds later Frost, then 5 seconds later Garland, then Garlett 5 seconds after that.
Didn't recognize the player who came next (99% certain this was Kieran Collins, our AIS trainee), and King was last.
*May have missed a few players in the mix but top 20 is accurate.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
