How is Schache?, Do we expect him to seriously push for selection or just stay in the 2s the whole year. 

I like him. I’d give him a go to see what he can do. Good size & good skill.

Has looked good from the pieces I've seen from him so far today. Took a couple of good one on marks in an earlier and has laid some strong tackles in the current congestion drill.

Still looks like he could put on a bit of muscle though.

Grundy is ridiculous.

Just ran half the ground after intercepting a ball from Rivers and slammed through a six pointer on the run.

I concur. Could be the recruit of the year especially if it means Gawn plays a kick behind the play (and not in the forward line).

Jefferson is tall and very skinny. Will benefit from a year at  Casey, a year in the weights room and another preseason. Can Mark. 

Great observation DL snd I just reckon that no Matter how slight/big he is he will still clunk from Day 1. It's in his DNA and maybe get a go earlier than is expected depending upon injuries and form. 

Howes exciting it would be to have JVR and MJ on the forward line one day vs Kangas ? Add Howes also just for fun!!

Match Sim time.

A more aerodynamic Ed Langdon with a ripsnorter of a ball to Viney who hands off to Lever who bangs it forward where TMac takes an impressive one on one mark.

A very important player to have fit, firing and back to his best.

Should have played in the Finals this year as was back in form but Goody forgot he was one of our 23 Immortals!!

Pickett looks to playing more of a midfield role at the moment. Gawn with a beauty of a palm down to Kozzie who weaves his way through traffic to send the ball forward.

Grundy v JVR in the ruck. Points go to JVR on this occasion who timed his leap to perfection.

Now JVR is rucking against Grundy and beat him. 

Max playing forward. 

This doesn’t bode well for my wish of Max not playing forward.

Grundy wins round 2 against JVR but the latter's team win the clearance. Bowey cleans up down in defence with a delightful blind turn before finding Jordon with an equally good kick.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
