One conspicuous absentee from yesterday's training at Trinity Grammar was Byron Pickett who was applying to the Melbourne Magistrates' Court for the restoration of his driver's licence. The Byronator is a new man with a growing family to look after - and of course, a prmiership to win with the Dees. ( read here).

News from yesterday's training is that most of the old heads are looking fit, trim and enthusiastic, Brent Moloney, Paul Johnson and Ricky Petterd are in full training after recovering from injury while Colin Sylvia, Matty Whelan and Daniel Ward are in the rehab group. Col is apparently still being nursed through the early parts of the the year's training as a precaution against a flare up of the OP that has dogged him from time to time.

Please dont tell me I just read the words 'Sylvia' and 'OP' in the same sentence...

Well if it's just a precaution, that's fine, but the fact that he is still struggling with it after so many years, is a real worry.

If he isn't back into full training very soon, I guess we could wave goodbye to Sylvia being in the 22 come Round 1.

If I remember correctly the club did something similar with him this time last year and he was full of running by the NAB Cup and the early season games.

From my limited knowledge on OP the rehab is a 3 or 4 year ongoing process, designed to ease the sufferer back to full work over that time. I have no knowledge though whether it's flared up again or not.

I just hope Byronator keeps away from the OP - as in Over Proof........ That way he'll keep his drive.

Brent Moloney, ..... in full training after recovering from injury

Am I reading this correctly.

Brent Moloney and full training applied in the same sentence.

What's the story??

I sometimes wonder what's newsworthy about Byron Pickett fronting Court to apply for the restoration of his licence. After all, it's not as if he's done anything in recent history that's improper as far as his driving is concerned. It's a routine administrative application that would have happened a long time ago but for the fact that he lived in another state for a few years.

For that matter, I don't think the story about the Grant Thomas/Rod Buttres debt story is news either. It's a private matter between the two of them and nobody's done anything criminal. They should leave it alone.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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
