I was driving southbound down Punt Road this morning at around 10 and there was nobody to be seen on the training track over at Goschs Paddock.

Does this mean that the club trained elsewhere today?

    A grammatically challenged yoda question, as in, may be there?

    Or, a command, as in, May, be there!

    so we should await an entertaining report from picket fence and the vipers?

    As we await Picket’s report from distant Casey Fields. The limited transmissions received so far seem to flicker intermittently between reality and  mystery. (re: Steven May’s presence or absence?)

     Like trying to receive television broadcasts back in the early 60’s of my early childhood days from the Goulburn Valley. Black and white fuzzy images that would seemingly coalesce and than elusively disappear into the ether.

    Of those early formative days of TV broadcasts one of the most memorable shows began with Rod Sterling’s narration “There is a fifth dimension beyond which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the an area which we call the Twilight Zone.”

     Knowing Picket Fence has great affection for the suburban culture of his youth and his previous reports have heavily referenced cult favourites such as the original Star Trek, Space Family Robinson, and he has lovingly homaged Columbo’s Peter Falk…

    It’s been photoshopped.

    Great get. It’s actually Steven May’s head transposed over the body of the head waiter from Entrecôte.

    Looking at photo #8, that is a serious leap Farris White has.

    He was reportedly furious when he found out he had a big arrow hovering over him

    My god you are old TC. I remember that well I lived in Bendigo, Shepparton and Ballarat were both channel 6. Some days you got Shep and sometimes Ballarat.

    You are only as old as you think you are OD! Lived in Shep well before local TV was even thought about. We were one the first households to have television (only because my dad was an adept welder and built a steel ‘tower’ for the antenna). Transmissions were received from Melbourne,  blue cellophane covered the screen in an attempt to reduce fuzziness.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
