Thanks. Check two posts up.

Any other information you can pass on?

I asked Max how much weight he has dropped, 9kgs, still skinny at 105kgs

Tim Smith is tracking really well in his rehab and is more powerfully built than last year

Standouts in the wet today Hogan, Maynard, Brayshaw

Rehab today was Kent, Smith x 2, Garlett, Spargo, Hibberd, Tommy Mc

Thanks Saty.

What is wrong with Garlett? Is Hibberd still the calf injury sustained in the International Rules series?

Great news that Hoges performed well in the wet.

I guess time will tell but I wonder what the cost/benefit will be in terms of weight loss, fitness/endurance and strength. Will the weight loss have an impact on strength?

Part of the discussion with him, he is stronger, acknowledged the days of the 115 - 120kg ruckman are gone, Sandilands excepted

There has been a focus on building stronger bodies, Harmes, Billy Stretch, Maynard, Gus all look more powerful than last year

Is that photo from today? Hard to imagine there was enough sun to cast a shadow.

 

Not the most optimistic injury report I have read.

Disappointing to see Vandenberg still struggling  in rehab:

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2017-12-01/ankle-surgery-keeps-young-demon-off-track

Luckless midfielder Aaron vandenBerg is being monitored cautiously after he missed the entire 2017 season with a stress fracture in his foot.

"Vanders has been a little bit slow, just with that foot, but he's probably had his best week in rehab this week. We're really hopeful that he can start to progress a little bit quicker," Misson said.

I've always liked vanders and when fit I rate him as a guy who can snag a couple of goals per game. The problem is he is also one of those guys who always seems to be injured. We've had a lot of very talented injury prone guys over the last 30 years.

Best of luck to vanders. I hope he can make it on to the park more in the 2018.

At least we know what's going on with Weideman. At this stage in his career would have liked him to have done a full pre-season, but them's the breaks.

I think it was an ankle injury that kept the Weid out of most of his U18 year... wonedr if the issue is related to that?

Great work, Saty. That picture of Billy Stretch at full stretch is outstanding, by the way.

Billy looks like a bubble-wrapped baseball bat.

@Satyriconhome this is a great pic mate

Lever's lightness on his feet might be what makes him such a good interceptor and good in traffic but I wonder if he needs to be taught to literally dig his heels in.

Looks like they are advocating a wall to me.

Is that the new defensive wall?

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
