Not if it’s the soul draining kind of gastro. Sucks you dry of fluids and usually is a 36-48 hour recovery. So one can only hope he is on the mend and with a good nights sleep can be ready to play tomorrow. 

Add some hydralite too then.

Well done to MFC for a great public event. Players looked most impressive. TMac looking v good training with the seconds. Moving really well.

Patrons were told that contact with the players would be limited to non-existent and that players wouldn't be signing, taking selfies or having a chat. Some players at the end were skirting the boundary giving high fives. I was concerned that this would expose players to COVID but now I'm afraid I may have been exposed to Gastro. Fingers crossed.

Nice to see JVR train with the senior group.  I don't think he'll be picked for the finals,  but he's got a good build for a 1st year lad.  

They interviewed Richo near the goals and asked about tmac, was quick to also mention JVR was a good option for them to have if he is called upon ... was in the best again last week ... he might be ahead given limited prep for tmac

The boys all moved well despite knee bandages on Gus, Kozzie and Trent.

No knee bandages on BBB, Max or Salo, which is really good news.

Here's a few pics from the session.

ADMIN EDIT:

Pics have been move to this posts.

Joel Smith Training with the defenders.

I wonder if they are considering Joel as the med sub as he's able to play back or forward and could, at a pinch and with his pace and agility, slot in on a wing.

Not a bad idea.

Pictures incoming? Please... 

Had every intention El D, but not only did I not take pics, I didn’t clap eyes on a single player. Not one! Not even from a distance. Snag duty came first. 😁

Hopefully, your selfless sacrifice will be rewarded with a victory tomorrow night.

JVR, J. Smith, Salem, Dunstan, Bedford in the squad.

Williams was again the most vocal out there, making sure they were taking the session seriously. 

The warm up, then grouped into the four corners, short kicks to coach with some run and handball receive. Another drill finishing with hitting the yellow target. They split into their line squads and did their stuff. Mids practising clearances, forwards working the marking bag and backs shuffling the ball around.

In the 3/4 paced, no cotact sims against the coaches (they started with possession, Yze, bog), we had plenty of structure, voice, spread and then finding a corridor off the backline, and finishing with a goal.

Finished the session with some goal kicking.

No Hibbs. 

Rehab had Woewodin and Moniz-wakefield,  Moniz-wakefield later joined the seconds in their run.

I couldn't see a coffee truck, there were, activities for the kids and merchandise they were giving away, small flags, plastic cups and key rings with pictures of players on them. Just saw the text from WCW, apparently sausages.

Great crowd, I thought the players were a bit overwhelmed, would have preferred to have a few more spectators at their previous sessions so as to make it feel normal. Could work the other as well, and get them fired up, though I prefer the stability and controlling the environment, plus, gives us a bit more of a connection.

I have more really good shots, but the site won't let me upload any more because it would exceed the "max total size of 302.47 kb". Is there any way to get around this?

I have the same problem, sometimes under 1kb. If you edit and resize maybe they may fit. At the moment my upload capacity is 786 B.

Amazes me that some can upload HD photos. Can those who do it, share, how?

I messaged the mods and they said nothing could be done.

It is why I can't send photos of training. Even after editing and resizing there is often not enough upload bytes available.

Hey Kev, perhaps you should delete  old pics you’ve posted and that are no longer needed. You just go to your account, click on ‘my attachments’ and select the pics you don’t need, and delete.

Does that mean, download the app, put the files on that app, then what?

Use "other media", and insert into post from that url, or go to add files from that app.

Can you give me more instructions, please .

WCW said to clear the attachments in my account, that worked. No need to use imgur now. @demonlad

    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.
