Hi, sorry I've been MIA since last year. Busy at work with not enough time. Had a spare hour between meetings in Box Hill and the City which allowed me 40 minutes at the paddock yesterday.

Not many photos but enjoy ==>  https://six6six.smugmug.com/photos/swfpopup.mg?AlbumKey=fPh89h

 

Need to get your priorities in check!

Taking snaps for the nut house or getting bit of loose cash here and there..?

As usual excellent photos. Just out of interest what do you shoot them with.

I have a number of cameras full frame and cropped (All Canon), these were taken with a Canon 7D Mk II with EF 100-400 L Mk II

I wondered if it was something like a 400. They're crystal clear. You've got a great knack for getting action shots at a good point. I guess a motor drive as well. I live in Sydney so really appreciate your pics especially of new players. Gives a great sense of what they are like physically and some skills execution. Oliver's and Weideman's size. The Weid looked much lighter in the upper body than I expected for someone already 91+ kgs. But your shots show he has a really light touch and feel for the ball. He looks from your photos like he could be something special. Also interesting seeing Tracs kicking style. Very unique to him and looks very consistent from the photos. He looks like a beast. He and Mumford would be the only recruits I've heArd of who have to lose weight not out it on. Mummy was mature age when he started. 

Great stuff. Thanks again. 

I'm thinking about buying something but I'd be lower end than you. Possibly a 750D or maybe the new 80D. Will use it for a bit of videoing as well. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It's Mc Cartney and he changed his shoes as well.

Not sure what is going on here, but all fine by me if they share a few flags at the MFC.

Quick, add it to the Smile vs. No-Smile tally!

Looks to have got his speed back as well.

 

If thats true and it holds up when he starts playing,  his surgeon should be given a statue at the MCG

Great shots six.

Trenners looks in ripping nick. What a story this could be.

 

I drove past Gosch's just before midday and saw what looked to be the rehab group consisting of Trac, Trenners, JKH and Smith (I think). They were doing 200m run thoughs and there was no mucking about, there was literally around 5 seconds rest before having to turn around and go again, JKH led every time but all moved very well and pushed themselves. I returned past 20 min later and Trenners and Trac were running the boundary at pace. 

I really can't decide on who I'm more excited to see on the park. But going from the way they're moving, I don't think we'll have to wait long to see either.

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.

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    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
