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 🔴🔵

man Dermott Brereton is a spud.
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.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
