Pretty sure he did another bit of a hammy towards the end of the year 'Jack'...

Yes, it was reported as a slight tweak of the hammy which was enough to put him into cotton wool for the rest of the year.

Would expect the Dogs to withdraw a couple at least from today's game as insurance. Six day break and an injured Roughead.

Would think Minson or Campbell will come out. Maybe Jong or another mid as well.

At least one of the rucks i would have thought, it really depends how much they think playing today would set them back next weekend, obviously they'd love to win today and next week as well

Bloody hope so. I reckon the win last night would have given the young pups today an extra ticker.

Will be a very close game today.

Man I can't tell you how excited I am for this game. My brother in 10 years of football has never played in a Grand Final, and nothing on this level. He is absolutely beaming with anticipation (which is rare for him, he's usually very humble and docile off the field) Whatever the result it's gonna be a huge day!

Oh nice. A lot of people on here want the Dees to draft him, myself included.  Go Scorps.

BREAKING NEWS: Salem will NOT be playing in today's game.

Hope he's ok. He will be missed, but I'm also kind of glad that he's not being put at further risk of aggravating last week's injury.

The Dogs went in against Collingwood massive underdogs with the bookies, much like their senior side over the last 3 weeks.

Unfortunately I expect the Dogs will run over the top of Scorps, the Dogs were just clinical last week against Collingwood.

For a VFL game, there are quite a lot of Doggies supporters on the train coming in from eastern subs. 

Hope they go home with tails between legs.

Ugh! Got friends coming over to show off their new baby at 2.00 ?

Delayed recording it is. To check scores or not? Hmm

Can't they text you a photo like normal people. And then you have to say 'what a beautiful baby' even if it looks like it stepped out of Deliverance.

Well I got that wrong. We lose Salem and they go in as selected. They are stronger than the team that beat the Pies last week by 20 goals. This will be tough.

More hipster sheep like behaviour then? Bulldogs should have 60000 members if this many people like them.

Mike Brady looking a bit older than I last saw him just walked past. He's going to sing "One Day in September". I guess he can't do that on AFL Grand Final Day.

Not sure why the Casey boys are in white shorts seeing that the Scorpions finished on top.

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

    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
