    Doing the 2 and a half hour travel with my 3 year old to attend tomorrow's open training session at Yea.

    My turn to give back to the die hard regulars who have make the time to attend and give in depth reports for us folks who live in regional country area's. 

    If you have any player of interest to keep an eye on let me know and I'll do my best to update.

    Quick question, are players accessible for photos and autographs afterwards? This is for my son who is excited to meet his hero's tomorrow.

    Circut still going on.

    JVR is one big unit. It's ridiculous a bloke that's 19 is already that size.

    Onto the oval where you'll struggle to find a green blade of grass.

    Broken up into small groups with most of it compiled of stationary kicking.

    See today's sessions as more of a captains run.

    Disposal is clean, crisp and moving fluently.  

    There's a group down the other end doing some keeping off.

    No bandage on Olivers hand. But i presume as its a light session there will be no contact today.

    Lever is moving and kicking well. Doesn't at all seem hindered.

    Groups have no rotated. Near me is choco Williams with the kicking group.

    Barking orders and wanting to keep it low and hard.

    Kye Turner has an unusual kicking style but is effective so far.

    Kozzie, Rivers and May are so efficient with their kicking style.

    Rivers looks extremely fit. Would love to see him spend midfield minutes if an opportunity came across.

    Trent Burgoyne really showcasing his poise and clean kicking skills in the group near me.

    AMW  is another who kicks it flat and hard.

    Mark Williams would still make a good senior coach. He barks orders but also gives good constructive feedback and demands 100% in all aspects.

    Benny Brown moving well also.

    Bit of a PR exercise really. Good to see the players. No TMAC, Clarry protecting his right hand (requesting gentle hand shakes) BBB is a very nice human, Trac and Clarry seem to really enjoy each other. Steven May did a poor handball in a drill, the next drill he put in serious effort to steal possession, he is a real competitor.

    On to the serious side. Bucks Bakery in Yarck was closed! Fortunately The Giddy Goat was open, great sausage roll and coffee.

    Players have been signing memorabilia and having photos taken, many now leaving the ground.

    ManDee signing off from Yea Recreation Reserve.

    That's good Dazzle.  Yesterday at training I saw him come off (a normal rotation) and just feel for his hammy.  He did the rest of the session but I did wonder.  If he was moving well today that's good.

    How did Joel Smith train?

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
