TRAINING: Tuesday 4th April 2023

Featured Replies

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?

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.

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
