there have been no open training sessions this year due to covid practices

the sessions reported here on demonland have been by members standing outside the wire fence

training seems to be mon, wed and friday starting around 9am and generally at casey fields

training times are not advertised by club

no training at all on goschs as it is being redeveloped (made bigger)

sorry for the bad news

 

8pm on Saturday 26 March at Metricon is probably the closest thing we'll get to an open training session for a while.

Thanks all. I appreciate the trouble. Shame but thats’s the time we are all living in. Never mind, go DEES 2022!!

I find it totally amazing that crowds are welcome at Casey Fields for the womens series, but gates are locked and I cannot get into Casey Fields to watch training, having to obtain a second hand view from outside the fence. I'm often the ONLY person there. Also you see contractors working inside the ground at these times as well. I'm triple vacced and wear a mask. Staggering really!

Nonetheless, we all appreciate the effort you make to keep us informed!

To be honest I think COVID has been a good excuse to keep prying eyes, whether friend or foe (or foe from reading friends online reports), away from the training track.

I'm not sure what the situation is with other clubs and training venues.

What kind of view are we talking from outside the fence picket? 
 

Any view is better than nothing, but it would be beneficial to sit at a better vantage piont say elevated seats ground level dressing room side

I can’t get over the fact that you of all people are stuck behind a fence.

Completely agree Picket, I went down last week and sat on top of my car so i could get a decent view. This Saturday I'll go to the same venue for the AFLW and be allowed in as normal. Surely they could have a ropped off area to let the handful of track watchers in to watch training.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
