Anyone know of ticketing detail / availability for this pre season scratch match?

Unless something has changed recently, it's like Gosch's anyone can just walk up to the oval boundary fence. Take a look on street view.

G'day DS, don't necessarily disagree with your team.

Just after an opinion around continuing to build the connection between the likely 1st rounders and also working on some of the deficiencies. Perhaps a squad of 28 and limit the time played by those you have suggested sit out. Perhaps even 2 teams by halves. The likely 22 in the first half?

I overheard someone at the family day mentioned that one of the players said that the team would be made up of mostly under 23s.

Well that would be 15 players including Oliver and Weid. You did say mostly. So that does leave some interesting selections.

I think I would give Melksham another run, he looked out of touch on Saturday.  I am not sure that #31 is injured, if not, give him a run too.  Still curious about Jayden. i.e. is he injured or on the outer.

Would make sense to build this around younger players and players who missed Marsh 1. Long season ahead.

Also, they may still be wanting to get more of a fitness base into them (best done/managed outside of having to play games).

I’ll be in town and attending. 
 

Anyone else going along?

Yeah, heading down at this stage. Only chance to see some of the boys live before the real stuff begins.

I wonder if Weideman will get a chance to play forward. Seems unfair to play him out of position all pre season and judge him on that. I guess we don't have too many other ootions

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
