I was lucky enough to be able to take my kids today to the team photos today  , the experience was great for everyone 

A special moment for us and to be able to cherish and to show my wife RIP 

It was well worth the money. the players all smiled and we had a ball 

Did anyone else go along ?  

thankyou

Mark, my full condolences to you mate. I remember last September you mentioned your wife was terminally ill. Glad your kids had an absolute ball!

If only there was someone on here who could get the message to Dec Keilty that he's an AFL player now and the rules state he has to go get a fancy haircut! 

Spencer I've given up on, but I like his plan that if he grows a beard he might play more like Gawn.

Damn, what a dream come true that would be for Demon loving kids. Gives me goosebumps. It's even more than running out with the team IMO, because you can frame that, hang it up on the wall and remember it forever.

I'd probably have told my kids to get out of the way so I could squeeze in too :)

Well done to all involved at the club for that, included the players. I hope it gives something you and the kids can cherish forever, Mark!

part of the deal is that we also get a framed picture sent to us , this picture was taken by another demon supporter for me , So i could have it today. and yes I think i wanted just a little more than the kids , pretty sure it was 4 kids not 3 and 1 adult ...  you could have unto 5 people in your picture, 

thank you it will be cherished for a long time.

I went along today Mark as part of the Casey Demons/Melbourne supporter group. 4 of us had our picture taken with the team. As a supporter group we get invited to participate in the team photo shoot.

All of us commented on your family photo and we loved the way the players lifted up your youngest son so he could actually be seen in the photo.

It will certainly be a treasured memory.

    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.

    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
