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. 

Thanks WCW, cleared the 6 attachments, and I now have 4.88 MB.

Wohoo

    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?

    Demon Army did a fine job on the snags from the looks of it, very popular from what I saw!

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

    My ‘selfless sacrifice’ has already been rewarded, HT. For health and safety reasons we can’t use the unsold (and uncooked) food. Long story short… I’m on my way home right now with five loaves of bread and 72 sausages! Imagine how happy my son will be when he realises it’s sausages for dinner every night for the next month or so. 😁

    I hope so! Sausages don’t talk back to you. And sausages don’t have a messy bedroom. Nor do they stay up really late on school nights then bit*ch and moan the next morning having to get up early. Need I go on?!

    No but I can’t imagine it’d be any harder than living with a moody teenage boy.

    Apparently Viney was exposed to the same gastro bacteria as Goody and Hibbo

    Now the bacteria have a bad case of the Vineys that they can't shake

    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.

    Ahh...all is right with the world. We're still training (and playing) in September, crowds have turned up for our training session, and if I look closely at the fifth of these photos, I think I see Satyr wearing a jaunty, white beret to match his beard.

    Back to actual training talk.

    Viney was tutoring Sparrow at the end of training on the art of dodging your opponent at stoppage by starting behind your opponent and then grabbing them and shoving them behind you as you go forward. He was then tutoring him on grabbing the ball with your arms up so you can still handball it off in a tackle.

    Viney may be our next HC, Max Hawn for president

    I was there too .... easily identifiable because I was wearing a yellow (high viz) cycling jacket. (I incorporated the visit to Gosch's Paddock as part of my morning ride.)

    Caught up with the lovely WCW and snagged myself a snag. Good set up there although it was sans coffee when I got there (about 10.15 am).

    Nice atmosphere ... Training session seemed pretty relaxed/low key.

    Would be nice to meet some D/Landers there next week ...

    Good to see the seconds on the paddock, about 3/4 of the way during the first squads run.

    Given that they have the bye, my guess is that they will be around the team all today and tomorrow, offering support, learning about the lead up to finals, and being, generally involved.

    They're really great photos, thank you for sharing.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      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.
