I think Essendon are forced to play a few kids this week which could be why Howes may be under consideration. But I'd say it would be incredibly unlikely. 1st year players would have to knock down the door to break into the side. I've heard positive things about all our draftees from last year but nothing to suggest any of them will get a look in for the first half of the season (unless we have significant injuries).

White Diamond for me BBO and we had a boot bloke to nail the stops in.

And the umps inspection before the game in the rooms to make sure there were no nails sticking out that may result in nasty tetanus laden gashes on lovely soft pink skin. Not likely to apply to BBO whose skin was already coarse.

Yes, I remember that ritual Ernie.

Also we had to pay ( I think 50 cents) for the pleasure of playing. Insurance.

Through to the keeper, bowled Shane, and bowled Uncle.

Anyone know where we trained today? From the training gallery it looks like we had a run at Port Melbourne’s home ground.

Thanks Dof, just curious why we didn’t spend much time at Casey this week. Earlier in the week I’m sure I saw us having a run on one of the rugby fields at AAMI.

Well you'd think if there was a Blake Howes debut we would have heard by now..

Yeah you’d expect one of those calling mum and dad videos or the boys getting around him at Training after Goody informs them prior to or after the session.

Maybe they'll show him calling them in tears after he debuts as sub and doesn't get on the ground....?

Maybe something to do with a light week on the track, after a tough road trip and only a 6 day break.

REPORT: North Melbourne
REPORT: North Melbourne

It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?
