Just arrived in Brisbane. 
 

80% humidity hit me as soon as we walked down the stairs off the Virgin flight 

(ps. Virgin - wonderful!!? What a joke !!!! - delayed 40 minutes arrival ). 
 

Dees will need good rotations through the midfield 

Having a sub will help ! 

Virgin are a disgrace these days, always delayed, bump prices up for events or school holidays.  

Hope the rest of your weekend is enjoyable

    Are we/they happy with Mitch Robinson’s comments on SEN about the Petty/Zorko incident?

    I think we would be. Use it as a bit of motivation along with the semi final.

    Turn the heat up and Brissy will go to water.

    I can only go Virgin, because they ( in the past) keep their flights.

    last 4 times I have booked Jetstar. Each flight has had its time amended and one cancelled. 
    both terrible

    I heard a captain’s run tomorrow morning at Gosch’s. 

    I've been wondering for a while, but what does the expression "Captain's run" actually mean?

    Is it (1) the captain takes charge of training with no coaches present? (2) it's just the squad picked for the game including emergencies? (3) it's training like always but a shorter or lighter load? (4) any other option or combination of the above?

    The coaches are still present and there’s more than just the squad there. I always thought it was that the captain directs this particular session. Also, it usually is a shorter, lighter load.

    Pretty much all these. Sort of like a 'walk through' and light hitout with minimal coaching.

    I highly recommend Rex!  They have good specials, give you a snack, and have some of the best on time ratings for the past few COVID years.  They only do the eastern seaboard really, but very solid service.

    For example - flew up to Brissy today.  I was running late and they helped me get on board and arrived on time!

    Yeah I thought they just did regional flights on the East side, I'd give them a go for sure!

    Sad reality is Brisbane are mentally soft, they can't handle a hungry team coming at them, and they're just not that well coached. they're going to be 0-2 after this weekend, they'll beat up on enough lesser teams to play finals but they won't fire a shot again this off season

    Interestingly Joel Smith is here too. 

    Joel Smith could be used as a sub if a TMac/Fritsch go down up forward or May’s calf plays up he can cover on defence.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
