'Closed' session unsuccessful given it's being held at Gosch's

Warming up down here - I love preseason

Looks like most of the team out on the track and the operation recovery boys  very active and with ball in hand. Clarry's shoulders looking ok, bit of ball work and some run/walk laps

Lever on the bike, peddling aggressively. Brayshaw in recovery group... unclear why?? Don't see Jack Viney

Big Maxy looking like it's going to be a huge 2019. Nibbler looking exceptionally fit.

Saty getting some photos, I lool forward to his update

    Thanks for the update @Graeme Yeats' Mullet.

    The Brayshaw in the recovery group is the mystery injury of the week. AFL.com.au initially reported him as being in the rehab group due to being ill in the week prior. He's still there a week on. There's got to be more to it. Chalk another one up in the interrupted pre-season group.

    I asked for further clarification on Gus' state last week as "sick" didn't sit with me, especially as he was at training, and was actually doing some form of exercise.  @brendan @TeamPlayedFine39 any latest news that's not from the Herald Sun?

    My doubts were that if he was actually sick (ie cold, gastro, etc), he'd be better off spending a couple of days away from the club, and definitely with his feet up.  He's been rehabbing for well over a week now, so my suspicions are growing.

    I'll copy and paste these reports for every session and then Demonlanders will no longer need to head down to Goschs.

    In what way was he the stand out? I hope he gets another crack at the big time. Was probably the wrong choice for the Saints game.

    Probably winding down if not already finished. The club does not list the Wednesday sessions as they are officially closed sessions on an open field. I get that the team need closed sessions to work on "plays/drils" and keep these away from prying eyes or reports on Demonland and other platforms that then can be seen by prying eyes. It would be great to have a closed off venue that could facilitate this.

    Just did everything to an excellent level, got praised out loud by coaches at least 4 times

    Him and Weid seemed to have done a heap of extra work, think he was paired with Weid for a reason, like Billy Stretch, Weid is fastidious with his preparation

    Majority of rehab group were out for 2hrs as well, Gus lifted the speed of his lap running, was working to a plan, kept checking in with fitness staff, was just running in shorts and gps bra, low socks, no strapping anywhere, so again, mystery deepens, didn't seem hampered at all

    Have a work shift this afternoon, wil post pic tonight

    How much bigger is Tom this pre season?

    Will be a super important year for him in terms of his career. Will likely find it hard to break into the ones if lever fir and raing to go. Which if he isn't might open a window of opportunity for him early in the sason. Goody has shown a willingness to give player their chance. 

    to be honest i don't think they handled his call up well last year. Wrong game and then to drop him after one week was supper tough on him.

     Assume you meant Harry, obviously exit interview said the opportunity is there if you want to take it, has looked switched on from 1st session

    Lever looks in ripping nick on that bike. 

    I was joking with him a couple of weeks ago, he reckons he has spaghetti arms anyway, seems to have put on a bit of muscle, has been doing a bit of upper body work though, we all forget he still only 22, don't think he will ever be May's size though

    Different player to May.

    We need May to wrestle with and distract the opposition monsters whilst Lever comes in from the side to pinch the ball out of the air with his spaghetti arms and be off down the field before they have noticed.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
