Thanks Saty.

When you say Academy, do you mean our Academy, and players we have priority access to? Or are they available for all clubs and we're just taking a look?

    If I'm not mistaken, Fritta has been near the front in many of the running drill pics that I've seen this pre season.  I don't remember that of him last year, and if he has added that string to his bow, he will be a weapon and a half on the wing.

    Interesting to see that Joel Smith played ostensible defender on Weed - he was training with forwards earlier this preseason, yeah?

    Was this due to unavailable players, just to give Weed a ‘big’ to be matched up on him?

    Similar, Greg Stafford didn't have Gawn, Preuss or Bradtke so he worked with Keilty and Weid, I reckon it will be after Xmas when most of the rehabbers will be back in action, that we will see the defined lines at training

    But then again Goody is a fan of versatility so we may see some 'interesting' choices

    I aiways find it funny at training, some wear the hats but backwards, obviously not to keep the sun out of eyes, why bother?

    Clarry, Baker and Frost wear a family tub of sunscreen between them

    Based on the photos it looked like they were swapping the white "vest" indicating who was a forward in the contest. I'm quite comfortable with Smith being played as a swing man, either forward or back, depending on what's needed. Can't hurt to try him forward. He has endurance and can take a grab. If he can hit the scoreboard then he could be that third "tall" option.

    True Andy.  If Bedford is good enough, and shows enough, then he'll be rewarded with senior footy.  I feel as though he's a different player to Spargo, but time will tell!

    Bedford speed is ridiculous but has a tendency to really butcher the ball.  Hard as a cats head also

    Must have had a huge downpour at Etihad during the VFL GF.

    Didn't put his body on the line or stand under a high ball.

    He's not a "Goody-type"player.

    For Jeff's sake I hope he proves you wrong ProDee

    I'm sure you'd be happy if he did. Wouldn't you?

    Most hats have a sweat band also. Keeps the sweat out of the eyes

    Some great photos as always Saty. Just wanted to say apart from mentioning the players in your captions you can tag them in the photo itself, that way it will show up in their tagged photos. They might appreciate that more than the captions.

    How can he prove my eyes "wrong" ?

    It's up to him if he changes his behaviours.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      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.

    • PREGAME: Collingwood

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
