It's the last Monday training session before the break. If anyone is heading down today we'd love a first hand report.

I'll second that!

    I'm currently living in LA and I just want to say thank you to all of the brave souls making it down to training in the pre season to report back to us. You truly are performing a great service to those of us near and far.

    I thought we were going to cut and paste

    They kicked

    They handballef

    They marked

    Etc

    Another really good session, lots of ball movement drills

    Crossy and at one point Macca,  pounded the rehab group again

    Of the young draftees Sparrow and Chandler seem to be settling the quickest

    Corey Wagner looks like what he is, a player who has been on an AFL list before, neat and tidy skills, handling the training loads

    May got his feet tangled up in marking drill and crashed to the ground, think the Jatz got involved, spent a minute or two on his haunches 

    KK is starting to stand out in the ball movement drills with his 2 way running

    At the end of the session Nietschke and Jordon got some one on one tutoring from Nev Jetta

    Preuss' skills for a big man are very good, have still not seen him miss a kick, no matter the conditions or distance

    Goodwin 'very vocal' today

    On the tech side as some have asked, there is a camera on a pole at one end of the field, they have a side on, they also utilise hand held and now have a drone, so coaches have no shortage of vision

    Will post some pics tonight

    Thanks for the report @Satyriconhome

    When I was at training a few Fridays ago I was looking for the camera on the pole. I noticed the guy behind the goals on the freeway side of the ground with the computer and the joystick but couldn't locate the camera or see a drone in the air.

    Would be interesting to know how in depth they are with reviewing the training footage and whether they use it to in meetings with players to improve their craft or training standards.

    Any changes to the rehab group? Gus still there? Hannan present?

    Hannan was there, have a couple of pics later, no sign of Gus

    Giving no secrets away, they will use a hand held to have a close look at a players kicking action, assume from both a footy and bio mechanics angle, sorry talking to one of the fitness guys about running styles and how they may and change a players if it is impacting their body adversely

    Extract from club tweet re AGM

    Goodwin:

    "I couldn't be happier with how the players have returned from their break.

    "Their intent, physical condition + training standard has been fantastic." 

    This is the first time ever that players have come back in good nick.  Shows it is a really committed group.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

    • GAMEDAY: North Melbourne

      It's finally Game Day and the Demons, under new head coach Steven King, will run out onto the field with a new looking lineup and a brand new midfield when they take on the Kangaroos this afternoon at Casey.

    • TRAINING: Wednesday 18th February 2026

      A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers were blessed with some beautiful Wednesday morning weather to give their observations of one of the final open training session at Gosch's Paddock prior to our first practice hit out against another team this weekend.
