This article suggests a training session Friday, I’m assuming tomorrow.

“Co-captain Nathan Jones says restrictions on runners have forced players to adapt 

“That will as good as be confirmed if they successfully negotiate "a huge training session" on Friday designed to see who is ready to go for the season proper.”

The above is about Jones, Viney and Melksham.

So, where are all of our devoted spies?  (Or, have they all had their devices confiscated...??)

Casey is a bit out of scooter range, but said hello to Mitch Hannan who was running laps at Goschs when I went past on my normal scooter ride every morning I'm not working

Garlett, Preuss, Lever and Tim Smith were also out there, this was about 10ish

10-ish, I was just putting on the 18th, sunk it in one. I was thinking about the game against Port all of today's round. We need to come out roaring and then, play safely and brutally until the final siren. Plenty of rotations for our 'elderly' brigade.

Yes I am missing my visits to preseason training, and yes my reports were sporadic at best I know. Currently living down on the Surf Coast while my Fitzroy place is being renovated. I was hoping to get up to training this week but now I am grounded, the Corvette has a radiator leak!

Somehow footy doesn’t seem so important any more. Disgusted by the happenings in Christchurch. 

Just sickening chook.  Coincidentally, on the day that our Club announced that it is partnering with the Victorian Department of Education and Training and the Victorian Aboriginal Education Association to take a stand against racist bullying.

@Demonland I can't find anything on the training session Friday where Viney, Jones et al were supposed to be proving their fitness,  Have you heard anything?  Or has anyone else for that matter?

It was a closed session at Casey. It's unlikely we'll hear anything about it unless it comes from MFC.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    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
