Who’s the fella at Trac’s feet? Stick him on the opposite wing to Langers………………he looks like he’d love chasing the ball

    My guess is for Wednesday, I'll drop by, and hope a morning run is on at Gosch's. 

    Nothing on the training page from the MFC site.

    Are you sure it's him?

    He was kicking towards the left wing apparently so we can be pretty sure

    Any further updates? I’m thinking of going and want to take the kids. Don’t think I can handle turning up to an empty Gosch’s paddock and then having to deal with 3 kids under 8

    Bit of a gamble, with having to disappoint the kids.

    I will post tomorrow morning just before 9.30am if they are out on Gosch's. 

    They could be at Casey or may delay their start of the 2023 campaign till Friday or next week.

    The channel 7 report stated they'll return to training next week

    No team training!

    One demon out on Gosch's at the moment.

    Mr.May, doing sprints with intervals.

    Melbourne Storm are in full force, on the oval next to AAMI.

    Brayshaw has just arrived.

    Do you live at Gosch’s paddock?

    Under a tree by any chance?

    Or just within binocular distance?

    You are a star on your training reports, greatly appreciated.

    Thanks again Kev. Only Bayley and Christian were training. They were fantastic with my boys having a kick to kick with them. Had a nice chat about the round ball game with Christian who is a mad Arsenal fan.

    I reckon it was Salem, because today's Petracca's birthday and I'd reckon he's out celebrating.

    Perhaps they are out at Casey, or the volunteer was wrong.

    I'll have a wonder down to Gosch's, Monday.

    Obviously they train over the summer break, each player has an extensive list of training targets they must complete

    Gee , they get alot of free time for professionals. 2 months post MFC season and 3 weeks for christmas.

    Nice.

     

    Reckon it’s a good thing that they have plenty of time off between seasons. Reckon a lot of the guys spent most of last off-season fully focussed on the responsibility and burden of being reigning premiers.

    Come back fresh physically, but mentally too. Our intensity in 2022 was nowhere near the sustained levels that it was in 2021.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
