Just on players who are not at training, what's the situation with Joel Smith? Is he still "provisionally suspended"? And what does that even mean? 

Still probably waiting for a call from goody.

    Is it just me or is Tracc looking a little flabby? Maybe he overindulged while overseas. 

    Yeah it is just you. 

    Joel Smith is awaiting instruction from the AFL for his hearing. 

    He is in contact with Gary Pert, Alan Richardson and Reece Conca. He has also spoken to Goody.

    When training officially starts he is not allowed to commence training at the footy club on official duties. 

    Has to train away from the club full stop.

    Training this Monday, is it at Goshes or snakey Casey?

    I'm just reading on the AFL website that Collingwood will start their preseason at Gosches due to resurfacing works:

    Absolutely nothing! It was the first place that popped into my head that was an adequate distance from Melbourne. How about the sewage treatment plant at Werribee? A bit too close but it seems to fit the bill?

    Training wouldn't be of a high standard out there.  Players would just be going through the motions.

    When did sides 9 to 18 start their preseason?  Its been almost 3 months since R24.

    If MFC start next Monday then within a few weeks they'll be packing up for another long Christmas/ NY break.

    When they finally get around to training, how many days a week are they out on the track?  2 or 3?

    I hope they find the time to get some goal kicking practice . We couldnt hit the side of a ship in 2023.

    Why can’t they train at Victoria Park, it hosts AFLW games.

    Collingwood will train away from Olympic Park across the first block of the pre-season due to resurfacing works, with the group set to start on Gosch's Paddock before spending most of the next month training at Victoria Park.

    Wayne - if you could refrain from interrupting my tantrum, that would be appreciated. Any entry onto Gosch's cannot be considered anything other than an official turf war, however brief. We are, after all, talking about the Filth.

    Thank you, I rest my case

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
