    Haven’t seen AVB or Petty but I’m on the other side of the ground to the rehab group. 

    Melksham also with the main group.

    Isn't Wednesdays usually a off legs day for Vandenberg? Barely trains during midweek?

    TMac just led out to mark. Only a little jump at the ball but on landing put his hand straight up and limped off. Looked more foot or ankle than higher up. Getting assessed now.

    TMac now standing on the side of the boundary. Boots still on so maybe will head back out.

    So not being particularly fussed over? Still wearing the boots? Ok, can’t be too bad.

    Is it really hard for the club to give fans an update on KK. I feel like a lot of us fans are more concern around his health then getting back on the footy field. Yet club like always give donuts..

    I'm confused with where Melksham's at.

    One poster claims he'll miss the early rounds with hamstring soreness, but here he is training fully today.

    You lend credence to what posters on here say? ?

    Might have to take back all the bad things we said about Misson seeing as the injury list under Burgess isn’t looking any better!

    So the club is extra cautious about even the most minor things and as a result on here there is an injury list that will end up with every player on it? Might as well go into recess going by some of the attitudes here. Give me a spell.

    Being hopeful and from reading reports - Gus, Max and May should be right for round one and have had solid preseason.  aside from that only really one from best 22 injured AVB - arguably..

    I hold little hope, for Bennell, KK in the first half of the year and not much more for Hannan given his  cursed luck

  • Quote

    Not really much to report from the session.  I spent most of it with BB, so he will be able to report further...

    Yes, the injury list looks long, but really, apart from May, Angus, Gawn and VDB, how many would be in the fist 22?  Of those 4 Brayshaw is running freely and keeping up his fitness.  Max is running freely and strongly, even with a brace.  VDB is the unknown and also May. 

    Smith can't be far away, and while he is running freely, he was still kicking the ball left foot only.  BB and I cannot work out what sort of foot injury can allow one and not the other?  Chandler was also doing repeat 50-100's, but the wrist is something that is only cured by time.  Same for Brayshaw and his elbow.

    The important thing is even with 14 players listed, we still have 30 out there training fully.  That included Melksham, Hibberd and Spargo who all participated in the small amount of match practice/simulation.

    So back to the track....it was very light and not much out of the ordinary apart from Kossi Pickett already having contender for MOTY!  Hard to describe as he just came from nowhere in a pack and the next thing you saw was him perched sideways above it with the ball in his grasp.  The trackwatchers and players erupted with awe, but the Channel 10 crew behind us were kicking themselves as they weren't set up properly.  Still they wanted to know who he was, so hopefully the cat hasn't been let out of the media bag....just yet!

    There was a mids group near us with Bradtke and Weidemann doing rucking ( given the injuries to Max and Brayden, we may need them).  Petracca and Langdon were prolific with their ability to get the ball and clear the pack.  Interestingly, Jackson was part of this group, but not as a ruck.  He held his own against Oliver, which was no mean feat.

    Sorry, not much else to say...so over to BB if he can think of anything else.....

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

      The Demons 2026 AFL Fixture is as good as can be expected considering their performances and finishes the past two seasons.

They will travel 8 times including their home game in the Alice, their Gather Round game as well as a match against the Hawks in Tasmania. They will face, the Bombers, Bulldogs, the Suns, the Tigers, the Hawks and the Dockers twice.

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.
