    Maybe if they pick him it would help convince Kozzie that the MFC is the place to be for his future.

    How is that first name pronounced? Like Peter Pius Paul (otherwise known as Crackers) "Keenan"? Or something that rhymes with "my man"?

    I’d bring him in for that alone.

    Way too early reaction:
    Adams - big forearms, he’ll end up a solid lad
    Sestan - 5 days and 1 training session in and he’s already looking leaner and more like an afl player
    Jefferson - not quite big buckets but he gets a lot of purchase with his fingers around that footy, good size mits
    Verrall - decent shoulders, probably the most developed of the young talls

    A wintery morning, coldish and windy. Great morning for the time trials, headwinds on one side and a tail on the punt rd side.

    Clarry smashed it. Goody was over the moon, they embraced several times. He is set for a ripper. Looking thin, nearly wirey. He is also showing some leadership qualities.

    Others out front were Adam Tomlinson, he was in a different group to Clayton but gee, beat Tmac by at least 25 metres. ANB caught the front group.

    Some bad news, Hibbo was having difficulty with his Achilles, left training.

    Petracca was the only one missing.

    So many new players out there. Here are some new numbers, 6 Grundy, 12 Hunter, 19 Schache, 26 Jed Adams, 28 Verral, 33, 38, 39, 43 (Burgoyne?), 45, 46 Sestan, 47 Jefferson and 47 Farris-white. Plenty of train ons.

    Clarry has the hair bun. Langdon has crewed. Salem white.

    After the time trials, they got into their boots, and it began.

    Competitive right from the start. Into two stations, two players competing for position as the ball is thrown in the air, the other was soft tackling as the front player picks up a ground ball. Moved into three stations, short kicks, and the other two I can't remember. They transitioned to handball games with 6 on two in bibs. They then went to two stations, a sim with minimal tackling, (Hunter caught my eye with great outside run and kicks to advantage, Kossie and Sparrow as well). The other was a hard tackling handball game in restricted space. The tackler was not brought to the ground, but was expected to break and get the handball (plenty of noise as they prove to each other their shimmy and ability to stand up).

    They went to their lines. Looks like TMac is with the back-line, as is Woewodin, and Salem stay there as well. Tomlinson doing some work with the rucks and the back-line.

    Forwards bringing the ball to ground and snapping.

    Some mids and forwards kicking down an alley, with a camera under the supervision of Williams for goal.

    They then got their runners on again and hit up 10, 150 metre, in under 20 sec sprints.

    Deakin Smith, and Moniz-wakefield, Verral, and Adams on a modified program.

    Grundy and BBB working together in their individual program.

    They have moved a gym under the shed where Joel Smith and Angus Brayshaw did light duties and were joined with some of the new players.

    There may have been some drills I missed, it was a long session and with so many players out, there it was hard to follow. 

    Addit, had a good look at Farris-white kicking when on the run and it was ok, hit lots of his targets. @Tim

    Trent Burgoyne:

    2019 (draft year): no games due to hammy issues, rookied 

    2020: covid year, port didn’t play in the sanfl 

    2021: 5 games, averaged 6.8 disposals. Delisted 


    2022: played 10 matches, averaged 10.6 disposals, 2.8 tackles and kicked 2 goals 

    He’d be a pretty bold selection based on that. Started to go in the right direction this last season but before that had 3 years of nothing

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
