I'm not sure what the training regimen has been since the Bullies game but they're back tomorrow morning for the final run before team selection for Friday's NAB Challenge match.

Look forward to some more quality reports.

Supposedly the AFLPA have some minimum duration after matches in which clubs are restricted from undertaking any team training. 72 hours from their arrival home from their last match. I'm assuming they did their review Monday though.

Look forward to the usual in D'land House fighting and bickering. Popcorn at the ready.

Hopefully not because the moderators really don't like giving posters a holiday from the site at this stage of the season :lol:

Vince and Howe with main group.

WOW! Fabulous news!

Looks like our best 22 will be available for rnd 1!

Both won't play this weekend and will most likely have restricted gametime in the vfl practice match just a week out before seasons start. Round 2 at the earliest with round 3/4 more likely I would've thought.

Yer - hopefully they play 3/4 of a match next week and then 1 VFL match round 1. 2 matches might be enough given they are both senior players. I trust the coaching panel will make the right call. I think Howe is a week or half a week ahead of Vince didn't he train last week? Pray that we don't have any injuries against the bombers!

Howe in for MRI on hamstring soon.

If he was with main group, the club is just spending $200 to make sure healing is A1.

If they both play VFL next week I'd put them straight in for R1. They are both experienced natural footballers. They should be fine. Certainly more so than Dawes who Roos played R1 last year with no AFL or VFL games under his belt.

That could mean either he's stuffed for another month, that they're assessing whether to play him this week or next in the VFL or anything in betweem :wub:

White, Riley, Hunt, King and Terlich didn't play at all on the weekend. Are they training?

Hunt didn't train - he has some back soreness again. Misson says he'll take it easy for two weeks.

Howe came off half way through the session and got a rub down on both hammies. He then did some running along the boundary at about 80% but didn't participate any further.

Without being an expert, if he strained a muscle badly he would not have been able to stride out like he did in the running on the boundary. He could obviously feel something was not right when he came off. Fingers crossed the MRI doesn't show any damage and that he just had a bit of tightness as he hasn't trained in the main group for so long.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
