After five years out of the broadcasting game, Channel Seven will use a Melbourne intra-club match at Telstra Dome next Tuesday to get re-acquainted with the specifics of AFL coverage.

The Demons have been given special treatment by being able to use the ground for a practice game even though the AFL stands strong in heavily restricting training on the ground.

Great timing for those who work 9-5 :rolleyes: Hopefully the usual suspects around here can wag work again and give us a comprehensive report on each and every player.

If channel 7 telecast the game they'd rate about 0.00001. I think it's just a full dress rehearsal for the commentary and TV crew.

Nice. That's 10.30am yeah? I'll be able to cross over there as I have a break from William Angliss classes. Brill

Is it worth suggesting that having a bit of time on that ground will benefit us this season? Or will there be no difference at all. Better than nothing I 'spose.

Great work Occo.

Cheers for that. Hope to see a few people there!!

I e-mailed the club today...the game might not be open to the public...they are trying to negotiate on our behalf to open gate 2.

The club will know for sure on monday if we can watch.

Bruce is going to absolutely wet himself once he gets Davey in his sights.

I can't wait.

Oh, for heaven's sake. It would be an absolute outrage if they don't allow a few hundred supporters of the game that the stadium was built for to watch their team involve itself in a match simulation event.

After all, they're opening it up to a foreign code on Sunday night and letting 50,000 supporters in to wreak possible havoc and destruction over there.

I mean it's not as if we're Collingwood supporters, is it? :lol:

I can understand y the dome wouldnt want us there.

a) rubbish and litter

B) Insurance and liability issue if someone got injured

Obviously we wont be paying money to enter and if someone got injured they would be liable. Hopefully they will allow us out of good will but i understand where there coming from 2

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
