If either had an issue they wouldn't be allowed to take part in both tackling and wrestling drills which they did today

Both also did every drill and the whole session

Yes they would. The FD obviously thinks Viney can play with his injury, so he can certainly train with it.

You mean like when Jones sat out the 2015 season with a neck issue?

That's just bizarre   so Viney couldn't be playing a different role, he is carrying an injury that restricts him   tell you what I'll ask him next week   I have a 50/50 chance of getting the truth

Any chance, if you get that truth, you won't broadcast it all over the internet for opposition teams to discover and take advantage of?

You do realise players and clubs keep the specifics of injuries secret for good reason, right?

Jack is perfect and above criticism, we get it. 

I am desperately hoping it's an injury and not a combination of that and extra pressure from being captain.

The strong push for JKH is because he was tearing it up in the preseason and did very well last week . Quick and skilled.

As for Kent it wouldn't be disciplinary if he didn't train,so must have a niggle.

I do realise that precious hence why there is very little I am told put on here

The opposition know anyway due to the spies they all have at the scan place at AAMI including the one that used o post in here, can't remember his user

And Channel 7 have a reporter camped at Edwins the Monday after games

If any posters think the burden of captaincy is getting to Jack, to quote the mighty DD, delusional

He himself said the other day his form is just solid at the moment and he needs to lift

Well if he thinks his form is solid I would hate to see his version of Shizenhuisen! 

And on Bernie .... What a tough player. Well done Bernie PF Loves wounded warriors!

Well 26 possies with 13 contested and about 8 tackles, plus a pressure mark and goal to put the team in front is a reasonable afternoons work.

Some (minor?) speculation in today's HUN that Hibberd may not play:

"will make his debut for the Demons if he can overcome a stiff back, which troubled him yesterday at training ........"  and

"The former Essendon defender, .................... completed the slippery session despite obvious discomfort."

I expect someone saw him having a back massage, and invented the rest.  Any sign of "obvious discomfort" , Saty?

I'm certain you are told nothing significant by the club.

You're no doubt treated with respect by the club, as they appreciate the efforts you make to attend training, but an insider you aint.

evidentley he was nailed with an opponents stud through his boot in the 1st quarter of the geelong game. so he's toughed it out for pretty much two games.

I now forgive Mr Vince for not looking to STAB pass the ball inside 50 in the last few seconds of the dockers match. The only option was the torp! All makes sense now ?

Well I am surprised that I still get surprised. Why are people still having a go at Saty?

I quite enjoy his comments but if you dont like them don't read them the constant attacks on give me the Tom [censored].

Get over it people.

So if I were to mention my residual dissapointment in Saty losing his grand daddy beard....would that count OD? ?

VERY VERY Happy with the rest of his work!!!

I was at jack Vineys place the other day, hiding in the bushes, saty can verify that I was there, anyways turns out jack is carrying an injury, when I asked him he said " who the [censored] are you!? [censored] off!? 

So you saw through my disguise as a cute but slightly weather worn garden gnome  damn     

I did see Jack leave the house with a parcel,  perhaps the injury was in there

Yet you stay silent with his constant attacks on other posters.

Hypocrite.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons. Date of Birth: 10 January 1992 Height: 193cm Games MFC 2024: 19 Career Total: 235 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 24 Melbourne Football Club: 9th Best & Fairest: 316 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025. Date of Birth: 7 August 2003 Height: 185cm Games MFC 2024: 23 Career Total: 48 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 1 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1 Melbourne Football Club: 7th Best & Fairest: 347 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
