I think they're trying to keep a lid on things. 

No training times on the official site.

Sadly WJ we have had a lid on things for a decade.

Lets get the lid off it is well and truly over due.

I have orchestrated to be off work tomorrow morning so I will be riding my bike down to Goschs to see what is going on. Let's hope there is some movement as I have failed to get to a session all year.

Thanks for that DC it all makes sense now as to why I have failed to get to training. I need to move.

Today's training was held in secret in a secret location, today's training was all about the new game plan which has been kept secret,  they feel that they are going to hit the competition,  with a never seen before game plan which is a game changer.

Earl, I think drinking and falling are natural activities especially when combined. Riding a bike enhances ones ability to fall.

Hope it's better than the old plan of holding the ball up across half back waiting for the opposition to cover all options, before a 25m backwards kick to a man under pressure in front of goal, or a kick out of bounds on the full.

Ethan, Salvio Plana patented the training wheel in 1996, now you and I know that they were around long before then, Huffy has claims in 1949. Kirkpatrick Macmillan has claims in 1839. No reference can be found of a Mr God inventing training wheels, however fires, floods, pestilence and Collingwood did get a mention.

SL, clearly your priorities are all wrong!  A more dedicated Demonlander would have immediately parked his scooter, watched the full event, and filed a full and concise report for the rest of us!

Your lack of consideration has been duly noted!

    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.

    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
