2024 Training Times Thread



Recommended Posts

Since it's not the preseason anymore I thought I would start a general thread for Training Times and other training information. If you do attend a training session please start a new thread for those observations.

Here are the times for the next few week.

Wednesday only  a captains run, probably training tomorrow at Casey.

Main sessions for the week are usually behind closed doors at Casey.

The session just prior to game day is indeed the Captain's Run and is a very light session.

Good photos for the Pink Lady Game.

have a look at the one with Petty. Oliver and fritta      All look really comfortable and happy.  Does not look like there is any undercurrent going around the club.

Oliver in particular looks           happy

They trained at Gosch’s on Sunday morning and at Casey on Wednesday. They’re scheduled to train at Gosch’s tomorrow morning (captain’s run) but as is always the case, that’s subject to change.

Open training at Gosch’s  tomorrow:

Included in “Food vendors” but not named, is the Demon Army BBQ. Please come visit our tent and avail yourselves of the sheer deliciousness that is a sausage lovingly cooked then gently laid upon a warm bed of onion (optional) on a slice of fresh bread aka a snag in bread. 😃

Dammit, I arrive in Melbourne on Tuesday night...  It's a 30% chance I'll make the game, but I'm hoping to at least make the banner prep session with the Demon Army!

I’d save you a snag in bread, DP, but I can’t guarantee its deliciousness after four days in my jacket pocket.

See you at banner! 🤗

Alternatively, such a meal might ensure I'll stay in Melbourne for longer than planned... but definitely not achieve visiting the game 😂

Scheduled training at Gosch’s today was cancelled. I was told this on Saturday night but forgot to post it. My apologies to any DL-ers who made the unnecessary trip. 😢

They changed today’s session to an indoor one, not at AAMI, at another venue the name of which escapes me.

 I was told there’s no open training this week (in Melbourne) and as yet no info on a captain’s run on Saturday in Perth, although I’m pretty sure there’ll be one.

Just a little heads up: the captain’s run always goes ahead and thus far has always commenced at the published time.

But Mondays and/or Tuesdays at Gosch’s are sometimes cancelled at the last minute or the start times are changed.

Best to contact the club beforehand. Or don’t and end up watching a couple of dogs running around the oval or the Victory players training on the adjacent oval.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
