If they are playing golf today then I guess there is no training/Match SIM out at Casey today.

In the YoPRO video Trac and Clarry were narrating their day and they mentioned that the day (presumably yesterday [Thursday]) they rocked up to Casey and trained with a Match SIM and then proceeded to do work in the indoor training center including gym work followed by a lunch where they were sampling the new sponsors product and then the announcement of the new sponsorship.

I guess yesterday at Casey replaced the usual Friday session.

They're training at Casey today.

    Daz, a little thought to ponder.

    Ralphy is saying Liam Henry will definitely be in Victoria next year. He is apparently very close to Kozzie. We lost Toby and overlooked Burgoyne. We have a need for his type of player.

    What if we have an arrangement with Liam to come to us and of course Kozzie would know if it was in play and it gives him another housemate and another reason to stay.

    Just spitballing.

    It's certainly worth pondering.

    History has shown that some deals via verbal agreement have occurred 12 months prior to being out of contract. Could that be the case here? Who knows, but it certainly would not surprise me if there is some strong negotiations going on between player management and Tim Lamb.

    There was some talk a Melbourne based club had strong interest in Liam Henry but was contracted, so the move was highly unlikely.

    Makes sense if it was us. Also worth noting that I do know we had strong interest in Henry in his draft year alongside Serong, Weightman, Kemp and Miles Bergman. Henry was obviously an interest due to him having shown his outside ability but also play as a small forward.

    I’ve read this theory on various media outlets over the last couple of months …

    I've never seen this sign that Ross the Boss put up at the Saints training at any of the Dees sessions.

     

    I think Ross is dyslexic and the sign is meant to be for the boys to keep them on the straight and narrow - no Milfing

    Is Grundy present? He too was missing from Wednesday's session.

    Grundy was good.  Kicked 2 and gifted a goal to Pickett that he could easily have put next to his name.

    No worries Ross but I’ve already sent the drone footage of yesterday’s session direct to Goody. Hope that’s Okay.

    For those interested, Max won the player's section of the golf yesterday with 41 points.

    Dan 'Disco' Turner won a nearest to the pin prize showing the value of his recent lessons after last year's paltry score of 5 points.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
