Hearing Balic will be doing a tour of the club within the next week or so, he has some fairly serious off field issues but also has some talent so potentially a value pick

What off field issues?

And then 

Dustin Martin is known as a poor trainer. Some of his teammates joke than he can't bench more than 90 kgs, yet he can push off a rhino with one hand at full tilt.

 

 

 

This is not correct at all. Dusty possesses freakish natural power, agility and acceleration.

I am aware he does a lot of cardio and endurance work.

All players have specifically modified programmes for their particular needs

Homesickness and anxiety. 

When he returned to the club after his month off in Victoria during the season, he apparently came back in prime physical condition. Good to see he didn't slacken off.

I enjoy reading that the deal is done, when we keep hearing that the clubs are arguing over the price.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
