Monday game against the Bulldogs - 2:30 pm 

Any information/team listings for this practice match? Hard to find material to preview and consider. Any salient advice would be welcome.

Just word of mouth from a golfing friend - was not sure whether it was on or not. Hard to gather info over here in SA if you are not a Crows or Port fan.

My guess at squad of 26: May, Salem, Harmes, Petracca, Jackson, Lever, Spargo, Gawn, Oliver, Langdon, Laurie, Bowey, Tomlinson, Jordon, Rivers, McDonald, Hunt, Neal-Bullen, Fritsch, Sparrow, Baker, Petty, Chandler, M Brown, Jetta, Lockhart

Disappointing that the VFL guys will play tomorrow morning so it might be hard for the emergencies or 23-26 to get a full hit out. Not sure how we will manage the game time. Most clubs so far have subbed in 23/24 sometime around the half and given 25/26 a run in the last.
 

Certain players might be in the VFL side to get a full run rather than being the sub players in the main game.

Anyone heading to Whitten oval for the early game? Might just make the trip to see Gus and a few others run around.

I'd rather go and be disappointed, than not go at all and maybe miss the only opportunity to go to live game all year. 

This time last year I went to practise match v North at Arden, followed by All Stars game at Marvel.

We all know what happened after that... ?

So yeah, while I can go I will!

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
