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.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
