Yes, I am at Gosch's now.

Any questions? 

Is that a Parmi and Salad on your profile pic? Are they capers on the top left?

*H Petty - is he doing anything of note?

It's a section of my home made pizza and salad.

Only the staff on the field at the moment.

Glimpsing the red training tops,, as they meander to the truck and cover.

Music beats start up, they mingle with trainers and coaches, a few doing dinky passes, coaches separate., whistle blows and they gather.

Tracc is with them.

No sign of Petty.

Light duties, Tracc, Viney, Lever, Fritta, Hibbo, BBB. Joined the skill drills.

Rehab, TMac, Tomlinson, Spargo, they are in rehab tops and are wearing runners. They have joined in the skilss drills, taken by Williams.

Plenty of short kicking (look at the target then the ball, is Chocos advice). Plenty of goal kicking practice under supervision, then their out.

No sign of Harmes.

You're a legend. Thanks so much for doing these reports. 

I'm wondering is it typical from what you've seen for JV to be on light duties during the week and especially at the beginning of the week. I am wondering if his foot is a permanent issue that they have to manage all the time. Mind you so far it sure isn't effecting his career best season.

Viney was mainly having a different warm up than the others, using resistance bands.

Thanks. I'm wondering if this is a permanent thing with him that he is being managed like this every week. Possibly to manage his long term foot injury.

Very worrying about Petty. Maybe he won't train much this week to help reduce the bruising?

Good to Trac is out there. If it was at all serious he surely wouldn't train.

Looking as though he might be needed.

Training well, kicking goals, and working on his process.

Salem was very comfortable and appeared happy to be out there.

Two AFLW players got some training from Mark William's. Eliza West and another I didn't recognise.

With Sparrow out is any other player doing more midfield type work or they doing generic style training today and not position specific.

You’d think JJ will play a full game and Clarry and Trac will play more minutes than they have been to cover for him. Harmes would be another option but sounds like he wasn’t at training which doesn’t bode well.

Agree, I thought JJ in and Harmes to the sub, but they might throw Rivs in instead or a young kid from Casey as a sub. Sometimes in training you see someone in a different position. Would be good to know if that occurs.

Thanks Kev and all posters great that Tracc is unhampered and no other real injury woes but a bit concerning that Harmes was unsighted. Also how did Bowey look, lucky to be alive. Ha ha.!!

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
