I thought Max Rooke had moved on. Am I mistaken? 

He was definitely there.

    He's one I'm watching closely. He's exactly what we're screaming out for.

    Preuss stayed back to do extra goal kicking and forward craft with Max Rooke. Preussy has lost considerable weight in the upper body and looking really fit.

    Skills, drills and role play. Might have a six-shooter in the hip pocket for 2020.

    On Jordan - not to derail - but he is 2 months older than Noah Anderson and 1 month older than Tom Green (pick 2 and 3ish from this year). You have to think another year in the under 18s and he would have been taken a little higher than 33.

    As far as I'm concerned either don't advertise that there's a training on or do it at the right time. I know the club has much bigger things to worry about but it's a multi-million dollar business with a truckload of employees, one of them can update the website.

    They're too busy ringing around at the moment trying to get us all to renew our memberships.

    I’m betting that Million Dollar Jack Martin was also a no show today. 

    But we did get a million dollar report from his brother @kev martin

    I agree, may have a lot of support from Clayton Oliver, as he seems to be paired up with him a fair bit.

    Do you see him as a replacement for Hibberd when the time comes?

    Yes, though haven't seen much of him in a game. Could see Hibberd being his mentor.

    Well, someone will have to replace him in a year or so and Jordon could be the one. 

    Jordon hasn't played a lot of footy and is getting better game by game.

    I could see him as a regular in 2021, when Jetta and Hibberd may be at the end, or gone.

    If we get Murray, he is another one who would be considered for the hbf.

    The coaches see him more as a mid that can play half back

    I was trying to think of players who have bulked up from year 1 to 2 as much as Jordon.

    I think I saw a photo of Jordon and I didn't think he had built up that much.

    Are there any pictures from training so far that someone can post here?

    Saty?

    Pruess could be our secret weapon in 2020... according to Burgess he's lost 8-10 kgs. He clearly showing the team and coaches that he wants to be in the 1sts next year and not stuck down in Casey. Same goes to Omac, he's looking much stronger in the shoulders.

    I do too. He has some of the skinniest legs I’ve seen on an AFL player. 

    Cameron Bruce struggled to put on any muscle.

    Another really good session

    For his admirers Joel Smith joined in some of the ball movement drills

    Hibberd in attendance, another one with a completely different body shape, looks super fit

    Viney, Gawn, Harmes there was well

    Weid, Hannan and Baker just light work

    Nietschke doesn't look too far off, so another new player, doing laps at full pace

    Petracca and Salem there, Trac was probably the stand out during the ball movement drills, Salem was his usual immaculate foot skills

    Another one who is looking good early on is Spargo, stronger and faster, did some really good ball distribution by foot

    Any sign of Langdon?

    No, expect next week, same with Tomlinson

     

    Has someone told you that?

    Given that he played in the GF he would still have a fair bit of time off I would imagine.

    I think in his first interview he said a few more weeks and back into it

    I doubt he would want to start later at a new club, unless he 'has to take' the extra time

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
