This is going to be a tough one for track watchers because according to the mfc site, “the session on Friday, 15 February has been moved behind closed doors.”

The question is whether there are any Demonlanders who are our flies on walls.

Otherwise, the next open session at Gosch's Paddock will be held on Wednesday, 20 February (9.30am)

    I wonder if behind closed doors means inside/another venue away from prying eyes or don't come and spy on our super secret game plan being practiced on an open field.

    Interesting. Monday 18th was also previously listed as an open session but has now been replaced by Wednesday 20th.

    Good, might be fine tuning our plan of attack for the big scratch match next week. Give the enemy nothing.

    What is has meant in last couple of years is an enclosed venue, obviously games are coming close, we want to do some setups

    On that note,  it was amusing to see a Norths guy wandering around on Tuesdsy checking all the faces under caps or hoodies

    Saty mentioned in the Praccy match thread there is no training, so he's gone to watch the Pies train

    Now that's a bannable offence. ?

    Not if he asks them questions about themselves, provides his views, gets Pendles, Sidebottom and Beams shirty about being asked and stirs up the Pies faithful on their Colliwobbles Board! ?

    For that he would get the Medal of Bravery (BM).

    We can't ban Saty for going to watch Collingwood train. He went along, stood by the fence watching their match simulation and bingo, right in front of him De Goey goes down with a leg injury. He should go and watch Collingwood every day of the week. He's their un lucky charm !!

    Well training at Casey is about as closed door as you can get! I mean does anyone actually live out there?

    Certainly a long way for you to ride from Fitzroyalty on your fixy Lekker, Earl

    If you watch the clip, I may be in background, it was about 15 metres away

    What happened @Satyriconhome?

    Impact injury or collision or something else?

    Nah, the normal innocuous training injury, just seemed to get the landing wrong in a marking contest, had looked really good uptil then

    A mate just told me that he reckons .... '....closed doors to teach all the backs how to smack Cox, all the mids how to smack Grundy, and all forwards how to outnumber and confuse the Filth defenders under the new positioning rules...' And that was just the pre=season 'friendly' match.

    I hope they didn't waste too much time on Grundy, he might not be playing, wasn't there yesterday

    Thanks for that, Saty. The descent of an ease of approaching trepidation at any gradient is a welcome thing. If he does play, Gawny need not bother to upset him, I am sure Preuss will flatten him at some point in a contest.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
