They forgot to mention "give Jaded a birthday present".... 

Jokes, I'm away. 

Hey Jaded, the rumour mill is saying that we might all receive a long awaited gift 6 days later.   Not a birthday present, but reward for our  eternal patience  ? .   The post script also says that it might only be an 'interim' present, with more coming our way in the following weeks. ??

    42 empty rooms in Bali this week.

    Might be a good time to check for specials.

    Dropped by Gosches this morning, the boys were doing some light training, ball movement drills, then goal kicking practice from all angles. Max is very good from the boundary lines both sides. I didn’t see Frost kick a goal from any angle, better stay down back. 

    Counted 19 players training, no Kent, Tyson or VDB? No Hannan, no JSmith, no Viney today, he trained yesterday. 

    TMac moving well, not sure why VDB was missing. Thought a couple of fully fit next in line backup players might have been training with the 19. 

    Melbourne Victory training next door, good to see Honda cruising around the pitch, looks very good with a ball at his feet. 

    Oh and Vince was running laps even though he announced his retirement?

     Thanks Earl.

    As a guess, those missing may play for Casey. Vanders for more game fitness, Tyson because he has cohesion with them, Joel to see if he is ready. Kent, Hannan and Viney probably being managed.

    Gosch's is great when all the professional  teams are out there. Storm or the Reds as well next to the Victory. Usually the MFC only one's with spectators. Though Honda of late has had a few down there to watch him.

    I will miss this if we move our training somewhere else. Creates a good atmosphere.

    Vince will retire at the end of our season. Probably thinks he could get a game in the GF or prelim, if there are injuries or is needed. So will continue with his program

    Oops, forgot Dom broke ulna had operation, so he is being managed. VandenBerg possibly being managed as well. I remember him light duties/tested at thursday training before last game.

    I thought it odd that Viney trained on his own the day before and didn’t at least do some limited drills with the squad on Thursday just to reacquaint himself with Max and the mids and ball movement etc. makes me wonder if he will be ready for Friday Night?

    Any Demonlanders thinking of heading down? Weather seems to be ok at the moment, hopefully it will be a decent turnout.

    ....and it’s officially September. Anyone slapping themselves in the face?

    If he’s going to play on Friday night then I would suggest that Jack Viney should be at training today.

    What did they call it when it was diagnosed? Something like a minor hot spot on the toe?

    From what I heard on the radio pre gws game the wed session with Crossy was going to be super tough and push him. They would then rest him the day after, but I also would be surprised if he had scans after just to make sure everything was clear the day after.

    Thanks in advance for the intrepid landers that get on down and report back.

    Particularly keen to know how Viney goes.

    Cheers ?

    Across the river next to the gardens has decent parking, then just a short stroll over the bridge to Gosches

    Viney, Vanders and Tyson doing some runs in what looks like the rehab group at this stage. 

    Can’t spot Hannan anywhere at the moment.

    How's Tyson looking mate? i.e. what's his program looking like

    Also Hannan is playing for Casey today so that would explain his absence!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
