They're not much but the recipient of our barcodes (a Dockers fan) has gone all in and is at training...

I love this. It’s only a small thing, but the Demon by proxy thing is such a great way of creating human connectedness out of a cruddy situation, in a time we really need it. Great stuff.

On Instagram it looks like he doesn’t have any strapping on any part of his leg so I assume they’re being very precautionary
 

And Fairy Nuff, too!

Did you mate find out anymore re: Gus and the gastro? 

Was told by Pert & Richo who addressed the crowd that it was a corky and precautionary. Take what you want from that I guess. 

Goody & Yze ate the same dodgy food. Isolating from rest of group as a precaution.

Not much to report, they’ve broken up into 3?groups and rotated through drills.

Drills were based on transition footy, ground ball work and close congestion work. Pretty basic stuff with a focus on tomorrow being a full hit out
 
What looked like the mids group worked on transition from corridor turnovers when they were together. Defenders in that drill worked on transition from ground ball gets and intercepts. Forwards were very much working on ground ball wins finding space and converting.

All groups worked on one on one contests focused on breaking the initial tackle and also working your opponent off the footy.

There was also a drill working on short kicks on the 45 and quick ball movement between the arcs and on a wing 

All finished now, more just turning the body over. Gus is out there walking around great to see Tomo involved in warm up and he did rehab after that.

Pert, Lever and Gus answering questions while the rest have shots on goal

Nothing to add to that report. Very light session for the cameras.  Unfortunately not signing or any contact allowed with supporters, despite them being out in the community. typical AFL.

It was Tommo's first session of joining in with the starter soccer game at training and looked like he was moving really well in his set drills. 

Pert also spoke to the crows, said they had sold 10,000 of the road to the GF (waiting on mine to arrive) and cleared Melbourne of blue t-shirts. 

My friend should be on AFL tonight and possibly the cover of The West tomorrow, after being interviewed by both.

Maybe, although I suspect it's more likely a requirement from the WA Chief Health Officer. Either way, I'm quite comfortable with our players staying away from any potential infection sites. Unfortunately, that includes staying away from fans.

10k?! Woof! That’s a cool 500k, minus cost of goods sold, printed cheap tee (please let them be American Apparel or AS colour) $20 max. Does that make up for one of our most games?

Does anyone know the details of tomorrow praccy game? Location and time?

Promise I’ll provide a detailed report if someone is able to provide the above intel. 

I doubt it will be an open session and as much as I'd love a report I'd prefer the Doggies not get a sniff.

I'm trying to spot @McQueen in there...looking for a bloke with a slab and a fishing rod.

Goody was there at the start but sneezed and he walked off oddly. 

Yep, clearly an issue, the main symptom is the need to scratch you thigh with your left hand vigorously which he had been carrying recently

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
