Ps this is a professional athlete, I keep banging on about it but NHL guys spend most off season preparing for next season (they do have shorter training camps), because they realise their skills/fitness/body are the tools they need to improve on every off season. Well done LJ.

    He looks so much stronger.   I am no expert in muscles and fitness but he looks very sexy.

    Keep at it LJ,  you can be the best player in the league if you want it.

    I’m impressed by the level of his commitment. I wonder how many other second year players have undergone a 7 week program like this.

    That’s also a very impressive mullet. A real throwback. Between LJ and BB we’ve got the rest of the league well and truly covered in terms of suave hairstyles!

    We should have sent Weid there when he arrived at the club.

    Do it now!

    I love it.  This kid could be a 'game changer', and we already have a couple of those!

    Some players 'get it' earlier than others like Oliver, Viney and apply themselves from the beginning. Not just at training and the extra sessions many do but well above that. Petracca perhaps took longer than he may have but is there now. Gawn by his own admission took longer for it to click.Its when you know you have an emerging A grader. some don't ever get it like sylvia

    Oliver actually struggled with the demands of AFL professionalism in his first 12 months. His diet and off field work was quite poor.

    That until Brendan McCartney and Billy Stretch took him aside to help him adjust.

    LJ will be a weapon in the future.  Just needs to remember two things - 

    1- get a decent haircut and 

    2- to stay at the Dees and never go back to a WA team

    1. NO, NO, NO, LJ's current hairstyle is heroically ugly - potentially cult!

    2. Yes!

    Whinging about players' hairstyles makes you sound like an old fuddy-duddy.  It couldn't be less relevant.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
