Seems strange that Jake M has lost his number because he is a rookie.

He maybe placed on the long term injury list?

I couldnt remember all last years numbers (I normally pride myself on it) and I googled MFC player numbers. Most hits showed new players with or without numbers, but only current list. it was no surprise to me that MFC website showed all the last years players and numbers.

thought I saw Petty but think it was fake Petty (Jed Adams).

Adams, Verrall and Sestan have all made physical progress 

Might be nothing but in a handball, handball across half forward then kick to leading forwards inside 50 drill T Mc started as a defender.

3 new young guys watching with Choco now

The two burning questions of the day

1- is Clarry there?

2- how does Petty’s foot look?

Neither are here, try new questions

The Ceduna sun may have fixed him up..dried him out ..hopefully put his step into gear…forward march

New fellas joined in the second rotation of that set of drills.

Koltyn seems to be pursuing a strategy of following Tracc everywhere. 

Kynan had a couple of inside 50 kicks that looked good.

Windsor had some nice one touch gathers. Might be because he’s dressed like an 18 year old girl about to hit a wall King street nightclub but he seems to have really long arms 

From the new veterans for want of a better word: Shane Mc looks comfortable out of the square and snaps on both sides.

Fullarton has a tan that won’t survive Melbourne winter

Cold tin just kicked a checkside over the fence and possibly in to the sun.

It hasn’t helped, the weather is still foul. I’d have the trade request in by the end of the day if I didn’t think 40 degrees in November was far worse

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

What the actual [censored]? Please don't tell me we're stepping aside to accommodate those [censored]. I don't give a toss that we have Casey to train at. They can [censored] off somewhere else.... preferably Bairnsdale

What have you got against Bairnsdale? 😀

The Collingwood players should enjoy Bairnsdale. It would put them close to their supporter base at the Fulham Correctional Centre.

100m or so boundary timed jogs for the young boys.

Longer, quicker runs for the main group up the middle of the ground. 
 

McAdam, Sestan, Gawn with the 2nd year talls in the slightly shorter distance group. KFW is leading them out well 

Laurie, Judd, Spargo, Bowser maybe some others and with some effort the Tracc are in the group doing the furthest by a few extra metres. Obviously many of the best runners aren’t on deck today. 

Everyone out there looks good tho

Absentees from the track (not all required at this session of course):

 

Chandler

Oliver (maybe still with Kade in SA?)

J Smith

May

Viney

Brayshaw

Hunter

B Brown

Petty

Kosi

Langdon

Schache

ANB

Tomlinson

Tmac moving freely - nice to see. Fritta did not join the group - rehabbing, but didn't look serious.

All the draftees and rookie picks were there, plus Fullarton, McAdam, Billings. Marty Hore, fit and firing, like he never left...

I thought I saw Petty but then realised it was Jed Adams.  Reckon social media had it wrong.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.
