    Ben Brown in sneakers, no sign of Chandler, McAdam, Schache and Kolt here too. I get the feeling McAdam might play. Lot of love for him from staff and players. 
    Chandler in sneakers with heavy strapping on right knee.

    TMac has been regularly training in runners in the recovery and Captain's run this season, (the strapping is new).

    BBB as well.

    Chandler limping noticeably, can’t see him getting up. 

    A real shame as he’s had a great start to the season.

    I've thought the same thing, looking nearly ready, though the injury report is 3-5 weeks (hamstring). He must have difficulty going top speed when running. I haven’t seen him really open up the jets.

    Is McAdam sprinting?

    Sometimes they have run throughs and laps, close to the end (before goal kicking) of the session.

    So, apart from BBB and Chin, all players named are doing run through. BBB walking laps. Chin doing rehab stuff, very low key. BBB doing kick to kick, Chin has started that too.

    Main group doing lots of ball handling, Tom Mc fetching balls behind goals and kicking out etc. Clarry handling ball ok, May moving much more freely.

    I doubt Ben Brown will do much training this season, let alone between short breaks. 
     

    Does Trac have any visible bandages or strapping?

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
