TRAINING: Wednesday 26th April, 2023

I imagine we will have a very light week on the training track given the short turnaround, and then another interstate trip.

0 stars for the AFL fixturing. First time all year we've had two consecutive games at home all season, and it's coming off a 5 day break. Cheers Gil. 

At least after the bye we only travel twice.

    Spargo stayed firmly on the ground.

    In general that's what I am used to.

    The first quarter against the Swans was a show stopper

    That’s the worry. He has missed a lot of footy, both high intensity training and matches. We need him back but we need him back all guns blazing and playing 4Q of footy. Half fit or limited game time is not what the team needs. I would rather go with a fully fit alternative defender like a Turner than a player not 100 percent ready. 

    Goody clearly stated on the weekend that Salo had had an excellent pre season before his injuries about Round 1 and afterwards.  Yes some fitness would be down but not to use your expressions not "half fit or limited game time". 

    Salo would /should have at least 2 Casey games and not be rushed like last year before he was fully fit and ready. 

    He might be available for AFL straight after the bye if 4 weeks is realistic time for resumption in VFL.

    Goodwin said Salem was a month away. Glad they are going to take their time with him. Need him for the back half of the season. 
     

    3 weeks Gorg but with Goody's 'no risk' policy he might be adding the extra week.

    What's the old Irish saying...

    So Salem is in full training but Goodwin says he's 4 - 5 weeks away, what am I missing? I'd so love a fit Salem at HB for the last 10 weeks of the season

    3 weeks away Roost according to Salo

    He was on light duties.

    The light duties players (Hibbo, McVee, Fritsch) were on the field for about 30 minutes

    Was today full training day?

    Wonder how they had the forward set up? If so was Petty still there working with the forwards?

    No very far from a full training. Just a quick, boisterous run which had a bit more intensity then normal.

    They didn't split into the lines.

    It has been suggested to me that they won't have a main training session this week.

    Next one is the captain's run on Friday, 9.30 am Gosch's paddock. (Probably)

    Thanks Kev and all posters difficult to get any serious training in with a five day break when coming off so much travel and a hard tough Monday night game.!!

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
