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.

Our last game was KB 

We play Sat night.

Have we trained ???


Pics on the club site, but only two pics have a ball in them  😀

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

Dees must be training off site nothing from Gosh’s or Casey Fields??

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! 🤗

Rogue apostrophe 😱


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

SEE YOU AT GOSCH’S!!!

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.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
