So what indoor training facilities do we have? Is it just weights, or is there an open area for footy drills? 

Indoor pool as well.

    There is an open end of the weights area, where they could practice skills

    They have treadmills, if somebody needs running

    Could be the day for educating and exercising the mind

    That could be difficult for some Saty.

    Quickly read it and fired a shot, so what, i never waited for anyone else to throw the first punch.

    As Jack Dyer said, "you retaliate first".

    It makes me wonder about the human race when you see things like this Saty. Are they so addict to exercise that they cannot understand the danger today?

    I have managed to beat my addiction to exercise.

    We have smoky conditions today, however, the health consequences of changing weather patterns and natural disasters are long-term.

    We face a new paradigm that will force all of us to think and behave differently. 

    Similar to terrorism and 9/11, our behaviour and actions will need to change. 

    Some people and organisations get it (perhaps the AFL), others don't (TA).. 

    Good decision by MFC.

    They might be in the shelter sheds having 5 or 6 darts to replicate outdoor training conditions...  Max the captain for this exercise....

    I live in North East Victoria and have been breathing nothing but smoke for the last 3 weeks, you get used to it.

    Although at one point I couldn't see the end of 50m long pig shed so I guess you wouldn't see a footy coming.

    Pity really. I was hoping to see one of those smokeys from Casey turning up.

    Probably like playing at Victoria park in the 70s

    This was Melbourne this morning on the Plume Ap which measures air purity around the world.

    Usually, it registers well below 50 and on a really fresh day, under 20. 

    The city that routinely registers the worst numbers is New Delhi - it’s measurements from this morning are in the next panel below.

    Most derailed thread. Ever.

    Just to get back on topic, it seems training was not "postponed" at all. Rather it was moved indoors. And away from Saty's prying camera, they were prepared to do some competitive work with "shirts on" versus "shirts off". 

    I'm tipping if the club announces a Gosch's paddock training day with half the team with their shirts off, there'll be a larger crowd of spectators in attendance than normal.

    FMD...

    This thread needs serious trimming.

    Round 1 cannot come quick enough.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
