Those who want to watch today's MFC training session will not only have to brave the city's wet and erratic weather but also the tennis crowds around Swan Street.

Location change for Friday training session

My question without notice is who are we most likely to spot first at Gosch's Paddock:-

(a) Heritier Lumumba;

(b) Dean Kent; 

(c) Nick Kyrgios; or

(d) none of the above

More likely to find him in a Lygon Street cafe or at St. Kilda beach.

Whilst I have never seen Salvatore the Yarra seal, Johnathen L. Seagull will be easily recognisable at Gosch's. 

Look  for the bird out on its own that doesn't seem to fit in with other Seagulls.

To anyone who goes down today can i please can an update on Weideman is going? Hate to really put pressure on the kid but really hope he steps it up and plays 12-16. The Weideman Hogan is so important in the coming years for us to become a genuine premiership threat.

It's as if you're discussing characters from a 1960's American sitcom set in World War II. Pity we don't still have Schwartz and Neitz on the list.

Yeah, nah. Visual, auditory and memory skills not up to it.

Wouldn't that be Harry O'Seagull?

Kent out for 5-6 weeks with a back injury apparently.

Mentioned by Shannon Byrnes to someone at training.

thanks for the info

its a real pity to lose Kent but better it happens now than in March.

Kent will join Tyson in being a potential non-starter for round one but at least he's had a good block of pre-season done

Back injuries suck, esp as they can be linked to hammies so if hes back in 6 weeks id be delighted

wow. another hammy related injury for Kent. That's not good. he is one of our genuine line breakers, and we don't have that many.

He said potentially, there's nothing wrong with that.

No disrespect Dub, but we've gone from a rumour that 'stuie' heard/read about Kent's back (source unconfirmed, possibly via Facebook) , to you jumping to issues about his hamstrings, to this...

Perfect opportunity for JKH to make a statement. Nowhere near as explosive as Kent going on exposed form, but if he's going to find himself in the team, it has to be in this role.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
