We're back.

Looks like a few senior players have joined the 1st to 4th Year players at the first day of preseason training.

Max Gawn, Jake Lever, Tom McDonald and Christian Petracca join the young guys.

It doesn't look like they're at Gosch's Paddock. The City of Casey sign tells me they're probably out at Casey Fields. Any trackwatchers there today?

    You didn't notice the absence of houses in the background?

    I apologise if this has been posted elsewhere, but is there a list of players expected to have delayed starts to training because of surgery or other reasons? If so, who? And for how long will their starts be delayed?

    I went on the MFC site this morning and could see nothing about training what so ever. Lack of staff in 2020 is probably the cause. I think we are just going to have to survive with leads info this summer.

    Every single pre season, we kick off wearing the same NB gear from the season prior. I see they've provided fresh kits to GC & ST Kilda. Small matter but it's strange to me.

    As an aside, an 'own goal' by Saints to use players with Nike boot sponsors to promote the launch of new sponsor NB gear.  st-kilda-explains-awkward-nike-intrusion-after-fans-mock-new-balance-ad  "... it feels like a loss for New Balance"

    Photographer could have chosen different poses that didn't show the footwear.  Too simple...

    Probably better to have player models from the knees up.

    LJ  looks  like Tarzan with his wavy  hair  and the build that is put on .

    Yze looks as if he is ready to play again.  Could have used him on the wing.

    Great to see some of the familiar faces training.

    Adem's handball - once again, leads with the nose (that must be the secret to his vision to read the ball so well in the past).

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
