The official site has listed the Maroochydore Open Training Session as Sunday February 2nd 2020. I assume the Training Camp starts the week prior. Anyone have any official dates for the camp and are any of our Sunshine Coast fans planning on attending open session? We’d of course appreciate any reports.

Maroochydore open training

Date: Sunday, February 2
Start time: 9.30am
Location: Maroochydore Multi-Sports Complex. Fishermans Road, Maroochydore.

    I don’t know why exactly - but I always enjoy reading the reports and seeing the pics from the Maroochydore Training Camp each year.

    It seems always to be a happy and positive time.

    I don’t understand why they just can’t keep it on the Saturday. 

    We have had it on Friday, Saturday and now Sunday. 
     

    Just leave it on Saturday. Why is it so hard!

    Surely the weekend is better than the Friday

    That’s true but Sunday is a pain in the [censored] as traffic is generally a lot worse on the highway going back towards Brisbane.

    If it's on the Sunday, it will be the first I've missed since the Maroochydore camp began. Damn it!

    Sounds like I'm in the minority but I'm actually glad its a Sunday. Friday is a work/school day and Saturday would stop a lot of kids attending, mine included,, due to Saturday sport commitments. Have missed the last two years due to the open session being on Friday/Saturday so looking mighty forward to it now.

    Agree then you can spend rest of day on Sunny Coast with family or if want to beat traffic back to Brisbane go after training. Not much traffic south at that time.

    Hi, does anyone know the latest with the timing of the training camp?
    I’m in the Sunshine Coast until Saturday 1st February. Love to see the boys train, even if it’s a brief moment or closed session. 

    Training session for supporters is on the Sunday 2nd Feb At  Mooroochydore Sports Complex at 9.30 am I think.

    Seeing you will miss the open training on Sunday I would keep an eye open on the website for twitter details etc as they normally go to the Maroochy FC every 2nd day so you could pop along as its a big open complex. Also maybe as a tourist go along to Twin Waters where I assume they will be staying as in past and you may catch them wondering around doing their stuff.

    Are we expecting a Captaincy announcement after this? Surely they'll do the voting up there, if they haven't already.

    Facilities at Maroochydore seem rather primeval, love the corrugated iron and rainforest look. Plently of Johnny Weissmuller types in the wings too! Are the boys able to fraternise with the locals up there? When does Jane make her appearance?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
