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.!!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
