Monday's open training session is advertised to start at 11.00am.

Players can't take their places in the best 22 for granted. There's going to be strong competition among them for a number of spots so the intensity of pre season training will increase.

I'm looking forward to reports from those who are lucky enough to have the time to make it there.

Went to training today and agree with previous reports.  ANB and JKH running fast laps.  Heard Watta say "if only I could run like that" as they powered around.  ANB doesn't look to be injured to me a

Media typo. Dislocate the patella, not its tendon. A patella dislocation tears the tissue on the inside part of the knee as a result of the kneecap moving laterally (to the outside). There's also the

Very good session today, I thought.  Fast ball movement, run and spread seemed to be the emphasis.  The work was mostly crisp and clean, with very good intensity and pressure around the ball.  As soon

Thanks Jack.  Pleased to read on the MFC website that it's at Gosch's (albeit an 11am start) and not at Casey.  This means that I can still fit in training tomorrow, and the necessary 'family things', before heading home to Canberra ... such is my love for the Melbourne Football Club, and in particular, my excitement about its near and longer-term future.  Go Dees! 

Oh dear, I think I've had too much wine!

Hibberd also stretching out on the boundary now. Main group split into smaller groups for in close handball and tackling routines. Lots of body contact in this one. One small group still doing short kicks under pressure from a defender

Full ground spread now, very quick movement and the occasional blooper as they are constantly under pressure. Overall, the standard is impressive. Will leave you on this note... we'll talk!

Lewis looking good, in the full ground activity there wasn't much movement upfield and he waited before pinpointing a 40m pass to the middle. 

Harmes also looking sharp.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 4th December 2024

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    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
