How do you lift them?

As a well paid professional footballer I would wear MFC apparel and runners, rather than khaki shorts (for the 'jungle gym', as he called it) and birks, which can easily slip when sweaty. 

But that's just me!

Perhaps it is just us Mr. Shadow, I was thinking very similar thoughts.

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?

 

 

Don’t worrying about the facilities Tarax. They basically do the same thing but it’s more about the work the players put in rather than the new wiz bang equipment they train on.

Exactly what Balboa had in mind.

Like comparing Melbourne to Collingwood training...

 

Interesting seeing today's interview with Petracca. I could be reading too much into it, but he seems to have matured. Boyish enthusiasm replaced by steely resolve?

I know many have noted it but jeez he looks fit. Saw a one of the camp photos on my phone and didn't recognise his face at first.

If he plays a lot more mid field time he could be huge for us.

I thought the same Bing. What was also notable was his batting away any notion that he's demanded more time in the midfield. Contrary to popular rumour. He just wants to win games. And so say all of us.

Haha Fritta looks a lot like Butt-head in that pic!

I've always thought he looks like a curious combination of Beavis and Butthead. Either way I think the Great Cornholio is in for a ripper year up forward.

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

From what I have been told Max is a lock, just a matter if they decide to keep Viney as Co Captain.

Looks to have matured which is good to see. Hopefully as a result his footy will be better and more consistent.

Strewth! Assuming the Jungle Gym is located somewhere behind the primary dune and the team accommodation is 50 metres from the beach. This year's Maroochydore Training Camp appears to be channeling a Cecil B. DeMille  Sword and Sandals epic. Of course Christian Petracca is hot favourite for the lead role, with Adam Tomlinson nominating for the support role.

I really hope your right,  'bingo' because he has wasted a couple of years in my book. 

Not the knee injury,  but a wasted couple of boyish seasons where he's been allowing others to show the way forward,  just treading AFL waters,  so to speak.

It's high time he stood up as a real leader, in this team.

Not potting you but in my opinion tgis is completely wrong. Seems to be a common view, even from dees fans who presumably watched him a fair bit. Which I find strange.

He was terrific last year. As he noted he had surgery in the preseason and so never got fully fit. Which made it hard for him to stay in games for 120 minutes.

But he was super consistent accross the season and our best forward. His season was massively underrated. Was ok the previous year too.

We all got to mature sometime.

I'm 48 next month and my mother is hoping the penny will finally drop???

So it's not just me! I've called him Beavis and Butthead since game 1!

 

Petracca's name has definitely been popping up a lot in the pre-season training conversation, whatever happens in the season proper he's giving himself the best opportunity to show what he's capable of.

Beat me to it.  My favorite part of the interview as well.  I know they are just words in a sense, but from the reports about his application to preseason and the reflex in which it came out, you could tell there was some real conviction behind it. 

Trac is often stated to have an infectious personality, so let's just hope his attitude and application spread like a corona virus in Wuhan throughout the group (figuratively speaking!).

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.

  • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

    It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.
