So we may just be getting all of Watts, Salem, Viney and Tyson back.

With Garlett likely out and the gun mids back in, Petracca can spend more time forward to help cover his loss.

    We were asked to leave today (which I did).  First time that has happened. 

    Your reputation precedes you......

    Any word on Kent's injury? Is he having surgery?

    Mission stated yesterday that they will treat conservatively and wait 2 weeks. At that stage they will decide if they tape it up and let him try and finish of the season or send him off for season ending surgery.

    Thanks to those at training. Looking good for the Ins. 
    Viney is incredible if he gets up.

    Garlett went straight to WA from Darwin.
    Maybe he could be in.

    What a turnaround from last week if we get them all up.

    I was thinking the same thing.

    Thank you football Gods:D

    Thanks Saty. Did you speak to Nev today? He is such a leader.

    Saty, out of interest was Dion Johnstone training with the main group?  

    Without Garlett and no other specialist in that role he must be close. Has he been doing enough at Casey?

    Is Kennedy a sneaky chance with Jeffy out?  You'd think he'd be ahead of Johnstone on Casey form...

    Just back from training.  Viney did extensive testing with Crossy and then joined the main group and looked fine.  I'd be amazed if he didn't play.  Watts, Tyson and Salem with the main group from the start.

    Word was that Garlett won't play.  He wasn't at training today.  It's speculation only.

    We were asked to leave today (which I did).  First time that has happened.  Nothing out of the ordinary happened whilst I was there, usual drills - agility, ball handling and movement inside 50.

    That's interesting. Was there a reason given?

    Just seems a bit odd to enforce a "closed session" of sorts while training an open field in the middle of an open area.

    If they were filming that is a big no no

    Kents intagram account has him in a hospital bed. I think he has gone in for an operation already.

    Anyone spot any Port spies or suspicious looking characters around?

    lol - is 'suspicious looking characters' code for demonlanders?

    How exactly can anyone be asked to leave a public place ?

    There was a guy with a dog who kicked a 'power' lead out and stopped the stats and media guys recording the session for a while

    There was reportedly one odd bloke there with a beard who seemed somewhat suspicious following Neville around on his scooter.

    I didn't notice him when I was talking to Nev and a couple of others, must have left, good to hear there is another scooter rider though

    They come up to you and politely ask you to leave. If the club asks me to do something I'll do it.

    Easy.

    Hey Saty, did you get any sense from training of who the omissions might be this week ?

    Doesn't really answer the question. Thats your response. The question is surely valid. Its a public place. I understand the 'why' . I dispute the ability, MFC or anyone.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
