Going by the photos on the mfc site hogan is lean and in fantastic shape. His body shape looks more like that of a mid than power forward, which fits with comments he might play more as a mud this year. Scary thought for opposition mids.

Man that video is just typical of what happens to oscar Mc in every one-on-one contest in the backline... zzz outbodied and outpositioned! All the talk about him getting bigger.. not sure how much that is helping at the moment

Just as concerned by Tom going one hand and getting under the ball as I am with Oscar still being a pushover.

Oh well, I did enjoy Nev's trip.

Like that time a player took a mark on him??? Yep, pretty damning stuff.

From burgos day 2 diary:

Simon Goodwin watches over training with eye-eagle intent, and gives strong reinforcement – positively and in an educational manner.

“Great power,” he says with genuine excitement of Oscar McDonald’s play.

It's like the Yeti monster though, difficult to capture on camera....

So, in spite of assorted harrumphs are any of our banana bending cousins heading to the Open Session today?...anyone???

After an off season spent mainly overseas, I’m finding it a bit hard to get back into the swing of things football-wise but I have a feeling that today marks the turning point with the club’s Queensland Open Training Session which starts at 9.00am (AEST) at the Maroochydore Multisports Complex in Fishermans Road, Maroochydore.

So far, I’ve been reading things about player bonding and cooking, basketball games at training, haircuts, how ripped the players are looking, who’s injured etc. but I’m hoping our Demonland correspondents up north step up to the plate today with some ripping reports about the actual footy.

Go to it folks!

You forgot the specifics from the MFC site like Harley and Oscar making a wonderful salad or Burgs' horrendous puns like: Bailey making a strong Fritsch of it, or Alex nibbles away at leadership!

Wet day in Brisvegas. Nit sure Maroochydore will be any better. It'll be beautiful tomorrow morning though. Maybe they could re-schedule. ?

Looking forward to reading reports from our Queensland supporters in relation to the much anticipated open day. Don’t act like you’re not going because you all of a sudden have jobs.

Solves that then. My assumption was based on an Instagram post that must have been of a photo from before leaving to the Sunny Coast.

I would rather Hogan be a scary thought for opposition defenders than midfielders.

Roaming CHF is his go and I think this year he'll prove why he's been so highly rated. Combine that with TMac leading out from the goalsquare and Garlett and Petracca and our forward line looks like a strength for the first time since Neitz retired.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
