    Great Stuff GTG :) 

    - red circle is likely the only gate open for ground access
    - yellow circles are the two dedicated parking bays
    - green circle is likely the “primary” part of the ground for spectators/fans
    i.e. it does not sound like the big grandstand section of the facility is open for fans to mingle
    - not sure how accessible players will be for photos and signatures but we hold hope they will be more than willing to as I suspect there will be a good turn out for a Casey Fields training session!

    BYO food, drink etc. No shops close by.

    Cheers

    Hoping to pop in for a few mins.

    Anyone know if Friday is more of a match sim/practice session or a craft session.

    And more importantly will the Demon Army be putting on a sausage sizzle to keep the kids (and parents!) happy?

    Of course Drysdale Demon has to face palm a comment that's clearly a sarcastic response.. just another day where anything and everything offends this fella.

    Can't wait for the reports @Bleasey as that @Gawndy the Great , us folks certainly appreciate the time and effort, especially making the trek out to Casey.

    Jefferson, Sparrow, Salem and AMW in rehab. 

    Left Melbourne in a breeze and arrived at a cold and wind ravaged Casey.

    Got here late. Watching players warm up including umpires. Likely a match sim. Coaches going nuts with whistles. A few errant kicks otherwise pretty clean.

    Sparrow doing warm up drills. Correction, someone wearing Tommy’s number, doesn’t look like Tom.

    If anyone can find out what's up with Jefferson, that would be great. Bit concerning he's been in rehab for a number of weeks now.

    Choco had a crack at the umps in some tackling drills telling them to pay frees as they see fit. “ we are paying you guys to pay em” he yells.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
