    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! 🤗

    Not expecting a big turn out today but we love surprises, especially in the form of lotsa hungry people.

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
