    Work was productive for a while...And now begins the constant refreshing throughout the morning awaiting live reports of houses being trained down and bodies being bulked up....

    I'm heading in for a look. First time I've ever been to a training so looking forward to it. Doubt I'll be able to report much on individuals, I battle to tell the players apart even when they're wearing numbers on game day

    Have tried to take a panorama photo of the ground. Had to shrink it to upload it, hopefully the quality isn't too cruddy

    I get that we need to get fitter and need more endurance  - but running until we topple over the end of the earth is a little too much

    Warmup was kicking soccer balls. Then some short kicking

    Tommy Mac is hanging out with the warmup group, he's not in the training kit, just in a pair of boardies and a tshirt. Like I said I'm useless with recognising players so I won't have heaps to say individually. Can see big Spencil out there and Nev, not sure how many other older ones are out

    I love training reports. How is Sylvia going? Is this the break out year?

    I did not know he was in!

    Watching the rehab group do short leads and kicks. Mitch King's kicking is pretty darn average, 25, 30m kicks to a soft lead out in front and he's maybe hitting the target 1 out of 5

    Have had to ask Saty who a fair few of them are. Been running lots of laps. I think it's Bugg (don't quote me though) who has been at the front a lot

    Thanks, Redbeard.  But, I'm confused.  WHO has been running lots of laps?  You?  Saty?  The players...?

     

  • Quote

    I think that's a wrap. Sorry I don't have too much to say, reporting isn't my forte and being this is the first training I've ever been to I can't compare it to anything. Looks like they might be interviewing Gus for the DeeTV so might see that online layer today

    LOL.  The bung wing might explain the "interesting" perspective in that photo of the ground!  Get better soon, mate!

    Have you noticed if they speed up when running past Saty?

    Curious.

    Redbeard's helpful advice that Satyr was there tells us two things:

    We should anticipate a Satyr update later today and this thread will now reach at least 8 pages as Satyr's posting generates queries and comments mixed with a soupcon of derision.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • PREGAME: Collingwood

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
