    Not this year.

    They will continue with closed training for a fair while so Gosch's paddock is not on the agenda

    So casey and port melbourne mix continues. Makes sense.

    Interesting to note that no players had footy boots on at all. Everyone in sneakers/runners. Is that normal ? Had the surface not settled? I have no idea, just asking the question.

    Interesting pick up, if you go to the end of the gallery there are a few photos of players wearing boots (ANB, Oliver, Pickett).

    Maybe they swapped after a session in runners, or maybe those 3 just forgot aha

    How good does that surface look!  Absolute carpet the lucky buggers!

    I was one who posted a few pages back being highly doubtful that they'd use the facility this season whilst the grass settles.  I cant believe how good its looking.

    Well done to the curator.

    They have also added flood lights, hopefully for some night training.

    The nets at the goal ends have been renewed.

    Big compliment given to Demonstone here. As seen by daisycutter using an upper case letter. A very rare occurrence.

    Dr G a comment just because we cannot get in at Casey does not make it a poor training venue. We won a flag from there last season.

    It’s quite excellent now and money will continue to be spent there.

    Of course though I'm sure if you asked the players they would prefer to train across the road from the G instead of in the middle of nowhere at least once or twice a week.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
