If they are going to kick over a dummy they might think of getting one with arms above its head.  And go real high tech and have the arms waving about.

I was going to include something about this is my report today but forgot! I agree 1000%. What's the point of a dummy if it has no hands? These things seem to be designed for soccer walls and not for AFL footy. A simple redesign with some waving arms couldn't hurt!

    You sure about that, Binman?  If you're gonna use Saty, surely, to be effective,  he needs to be perched on top of a step ladder...!!

    Agreed, I only just outdo one of the witches hats, seems a bit of a silly argument, to be game realistic it would have to wave arms, move side to side and do trash talk, I wonder if Bill Shorten is free?

    Gonna post some pics on here and Insta the quality is not very good but thought I may as well

    have always thought that part of the arms race will include specialised AFL training equipment.

    Could be fun thinking of what they might come up with

    Do they use the machine that shoots the footy out (a la clay pigeon targets) at training?

    Good to know that at this time of year Santa is training the house down. He’s got a hard gig coming up in the near future.

    yes. he came back from the break badly overweight with poor skinfolds. a major time trial looms and will certainly test him in 10 days time

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
