Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin ventured down to Training on Tuesday Morning at Gosch's Paddock to bring you the following observations including an update on Max Gawn and a couple injury concerns for a couple of other big names.

Got down to Gosch's for this morning's run.

Taj was being put through a fair bit of running. He also had a small amount of time kicking and marking.

Max ran more than 10 laps. At one stage, he tried a drill with direction changes, that didn't last long.

The rehab also had Farris-white, K.Turner, BBB, Lever and Hibbo in it.

Hibbo looks in trouble, probably his achilles. Left training after 20 minutes.

Lever appeared to have a right hip complaint. He joined the main group after they finished their running.

Schache was in full training, he also spent time after the session, marking the high ball.

No Harmes.

Kossie looked happy.

The session was mainly about stretching the legs and having some fun.

After some run throughs, they separated into 4 stations. Short kicking drill, with movement either left or right behind the mannequin after marking. A game of keep the soccer ball in the air. A handball game with a precision target to finish the action. The final one was competitive handball, finishing with a 40-meter pass to a leading forward.

That was it. A few stayed back, working on their goal kicking. Grundy, Petty, Tracc, Moniz-wakefield, Oliver and a couple of others who I can't recall.

    Clarry's goal kicking has moved up a notch or two. My throat went dry in the first quarter when I realised it was Clarry who received the handpass and was running straight at the goals through the 50 metre arc. But he nailed it.

    Yes that's because our Clarry is a CHAMPION.

    How do I know when training is scheduled?

    https://www.melbournefc.com.au/teams/training-times

    The above link for when the MFC post open trainings. 

    They haven't been posting lately. 

    I have been using guess work.

    At the moment the pattern seems. Monday or Tuesday (if a Sunday game) on Gosch's, sometime after 9.30am. Last Tuesday they trained at 11.00 am.

    Then they have their main training out at Casey, Thursday 9.30am, or on Wednesday if the game is on Friday.

    They will do a captains run on Gosch's at 9.30am, the day before gameday, if playing in Melbourne.

    Goodluck Billy.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
