Looks very light on. Reminds me of the warm up before a game, probably even less intense. Everyone is looking pretty relaxed (watching on Fox)

That's usually what a captain's run is day before the match.

Good amount of goal kicking which is excellent.

Stop throwing footballs at Max please. In all seriousness, what an experience for those attending today and tomorrow. Do the rest of us proud.

Grand Final Open Training: 

  • Weather is going to be perfect for footy, maybe a touch windy in the first quarter but will be crisp for most of the game
  • Most of the crowd will be Dees fans (many here have jumped on board given our history)
  • Harmes looked like a kid in a candy shop, he’s super excited
  • Salem was taking it very easy with the drills
  • Langdons kicking is still pretty hit and miss
  • Chandler is a great kick and really like his craft. He didn’t miss a shot or target.
  • Tomlinson was watching on looking quite flat and I felt for him. Poor guy.
  • May was kicking from 40+ out. No worries at all with him and his back. 
  • Bowey didn’t miss a target all session. He’s building very nicely. 
  • Troy Chaplin is in a moon boot. Not sure why haha. 
  • Tracc was doing his own thing for most of it just taking set shots
  • The small forwards (Sparks, Nibbler, Harmes, Kozzi) we’re doing a lot of frontal pressure work and then hitting up Tmac, BB and Fritta
  • Backs were doing marking drills and short 15m, 45 degree chip kicks then long to Gawn
  • Lever did extras with Chocco in a quick ball throw at his head and he’d get his hands out front to mark
  • Viney did extras with Chocco too. Ground ball gets and tackles. I’m tipping him for a massive game tomorrow.

Obviously a very light session but conditions are looking excellent and I’m growing more and more confident.

Feeling for you all in VIC.  

1 more sleep. 

Let’s go Dees 🔴🔵

Talks about stiff Melksham is to not be in the team and says how well he played in rounds 16-17-18 including the draw against hawthorn.

Did he take 15 minutes to say it? Not known for concise pontifications, is Dermie.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
