I guess the silver lining is that this happened on Tuesday and not on a Thursday or pre-game session. Fingers crossed!

    Got here just as jetta being assessed. Hard to tell but he walked back without assistace.

    Watts worked with defensive group on hanball and short kick drills. Brayshaw looked solid. Garland ran laps solidly

    Nathan jones ran beautifully all session and looked really sharp on close in drills. Didnt kick, but then noone else was except jesse. All handballing by everyone.

    Viney not out there. Bugg fully involved. I may have missed him but couldn't find max out there.

    Really windy but skills still looked good. Oscar and tom played on each other for goals kiciin/defending drills.

    It looked like they were having fun, music playing etc. Just a really good vibe if you like. Goodwin very public in control over all.

    Hopefully it's on the minor side of ankle injuries and he can play with a jab on Saturday?

    Nev Jetta didn't look to bad from footage. Hopefully just needs to ice and to keep off it.

    He has enough credits not to train for the rest of the week to get himself 100% for the Roos

    How was Oliver looking today? There were mentions of him looking a bit ginger after the game on Saturday (no pun intended). 

  • Quote

    Just back from training.  Observations:

    - no Gawn, no Salem, no Oliver (and arrived just to see Jetta limping off)

    - Hibberd and Watts (amongst others) in no contact, no running handball drill group

    - Garland and McKenna running laps

    - no Kent obviously

    - TMac stopped for some work on his calf at some point but kept going

    - Jones did do a kicking exercise at the end in what was a Misson supervised fitness test.  He was kicking on his right at about three quarter pace.  Got through ok but I think it will be one more week.

    Does it matter Jnr?

    FD appear to see him as yesterday's hero who does not fit the current player requirement.

    I don't often get something right.

    But when I do, I make sure to remind everyone.   :ph34r:

    Sounds like Gawn, Viney and Jetta will all play. Best Dave Misson video I've ever seen!

    We don't need Jones coming back anything less than 100%, re-injuring his quad and subsequently jeopardising his chance of playing finals football. And that's not just looking at it from a team perspective - individually, it's going to be huge for him to play in September after the ten + years he's had to endure.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
