New thread dedicated to today's open training session on the Sunshine Coast. 

We'd love to hear reports from Demonlanders who are attending.

For anyone attending today, an update on Aaron Davey’s role for the camp would be appreciated. Looking forward to the reports.

First time poster. Just joined today. I’m not there today but my brother moved from Melb to QLD 5 years and loves the Dees. He is at training today.

May has a tight hammy and walking laps. The Weid is clunking some very good marks apparently. I’ll keep them coming.

Standouts were Jetta, doesn’t miss a tackle and evading skills were impressive. JKH was actually really good, closing fast and hitting targets. Petracca just a bull. Preuss has the strength but lacks the endurance and repeat efforts at this stage. Tmac looking good for another big year. Maynard’s hands are really clean and fast inside. ANB and Salem both looked really sharp and agile.

They have been doing this at every session since start of pre season, the more ridiculous the better, Hibbo's a close second to Nibbler's

I understand how others could enjoy that but importing another piece of American culture into our game makes me cringe a bit

It is a bit, however, some clubs complain about having too many introverts. 

There's a growing confidence I like.

Is it a piece of American culture?

Whatever it is, I know it's nothing new.

We were doing the same chant (name of club different of course) about 20/30 years back... 

If it's being imported, it was imported long ago.

JKH was in the rehab group, along with spargo and KK. It may have been Toby Bedford he was watching.

Trac was in the main group but Oliver, Viney and Jones were also in rehab.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
