For all who are interested, there will be a Club Sponsored BBQ at Gosch's Paddock on the 18th December to celebrate the last training for 2015.

Training is expected to start at 9.30am and finish at 12 or 12.30.

This is a great opportunity to bring the kids to watch training, have a coffee and relax. Hopefully the kids will wear their guernseys and make it a fun day.

Any queries either post here or contact the Club on 1300 336 667

Obviously a hot morning at training; I went down and had a bit of a look around.  Without going into detail a few things of interest to me were... Jack Trengove looks in great shape and was

Headed to training with my 5 y/o daughter who loved meeting Jack Watt's and getting a photo with Jonesy.  Both of those are her favourites, and Jack in particular knows how to win the kids over.

excellent the club is hearing the fans.   they're listening.   & they're acting.

 

I can't make it as I'm a 2Hr-45min drive away from training,  Or 40min drive from the station, before a 1.75Hr train ride.

 

but am I really glad to here the changes ringing in,  for my beloved dees.

Sounds a better alternative than heading down to the gym (a footy hit to get me through the Xmas break)!

As a member who moved interstate 7 years ago, this sort of stuff really tugs at the "return home" strings!

My 7 year old lad is even more passionate than myself when it comes to our beloved Dees and if it wasn't for us both also being local Norwood members, I don't know how much longer I could resist the urge...

Great work by the club and hopefully plenty of folk get down and cheer the lads on...

Note - At least we get to go to a pre-season game at Elizabeth Oval :) 

I have asked Santa for a bullet proof vest and first aid kit for Christmas! :unsure:

What are the chances of them changing it to a Saturday if I ask nicely? 

Based on some of last season's results, there's probably more chance of the team turning up on a Friday than on a Saturday. :o

The Club has confirmed that the training session on the 18th will now commence at 9.45am and end at 11.30am.

Sausages will be sizzling and coffee brewing before training starts.

Hopefully everyone is aware of the parking limitations around Gosch's Paddock.

Alexander Ave across the Yarra is the best bet for parking. Reasonably priced on the side of the river. Near the corner of Anderson St. Short 5 min walk across Morrell Bridge(?) pedestrian bridge to Gosch's.

Pretty sure the train station would be the best bet for parking for me if I could get there. 

This is such a big event that I intend to forgo public transport and walk from home.

This is a great initiative by the club which is really looking after its supporters.

I wish I could be there but alas, I'll be flying to Puerto Rico for a Caribbean tour.

I'll also be going to Trinidad and Tobago looking for some West Indian cricketers (there certainly aren't any here) and then on to French Guiana and Devil's Island (the second spiritual home of the Demons after the G).

Wishing you all the compliments of the season and looking forward to reports and photos of the final training session of the year.

And it's onwards and upwards in 2016.

For all the others coming down to training on Friday don't forget the sunscreen. It's going to be hot:cool:

Not sure they'll even need to bother with BBQs. For those who are going, I admire your commitment (and please drink plenty of water, wear a hat and remember that Satyr might look like Santa...but he's much, much more than that.)

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
