    It's really interesting how well the two sports compliment each other, a lot of people seem to be very naturally talented and able to play multiple sports at a very high level but AFL and basketball go well together

    Gus is ok, as per interview on club website, just getting it done in the first week, was very smooth when they were doing the bring out and back in drills

    Article in this morning's SHun had the additional comment from Angus that he was trying to keep his head out of drills. An understandable stance but problematic for him? Any evidence in training so far? Article also elaborated on his training with neighbour Jonesy; that training, and keeping up, with super-trainer Jonesy would drag him to higher levels of endurance. So, ditto, any evidence in training so far?

    Impressive recovery by Mitch K, seven months from his injury.

    I add my thanks to Demonland's eyes, ears and keyboards at Gosch's.

    It is a running joke amongst the squad about the size of Angus' head, he has even joked to me about it, he had his tongue firmly in cheek

    Just really unlucky last year, once the realstuff starts, he like the rest will have his head over the ball

    Angus was very good on Friday, aerobic fitness definitely up

    I asked Macca for an early tip for a great year, answer Brayshaw

    Just with Chaplin being 'offensive coordinator' whatever the hell that is, and not sure exactly what role Rooke will have, as far as I know it is Rawlings backs, Mattews midfield and McPherson forwards, the rest development   will have to see when whole squad is back

    Sorry Beelzebub this is answer to your post, more daughter training on smartphone required

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
