Captain’s Run this morning. If there’s no other Demonlanders here, I’m happy to answer questions.

 

 

Can’t guarantee the answers will be correct though.

Fritta is out there now. I told him his goal was ok but I’ve seen better 😂

Imagine the nerve of people complaining about someone providing them with free info from training that they took time out of their own lives to do. This is not @WalkingCivilWar job, she’s doing it for

Yes she absolutely does, and all the time she gives back to the club and Demonland is done free of charge and in her spare time. This is up there with the complaint we had about the podcast. Just

Please ask Eddie if he is growing his hair long again!  And congratulate him on his form this season so far!

(Figure that question is just right for you, WCW 😁)

We already know, DZ! For that was one of the hard hitting questions Robbo asked him on 360 last night. 🙄 Geez and I thought I asked the unimportant questions. Robbo makes me sound like Mike Sheehan.

Melks and Salo the only two out there thus far. Early since the official start is 9:45. One on one they’re tackling hard. Both looking really good.

i felt sorry for him with that interview - Robinson was incoherent and asked stupid questions.

That’s normal.  He needs media training more than the 18 year old Leb!

What is the meaning of life?

Seriously, did McAdam join in. Unsure whether injured or unwell, during Casey game Sunday.

@Dee Zephyr I said to Leb “how’s about those great questions Robbo asked you last night?!” He said, “I know right! He went totally off script.” Apparently interviewees are given an idea about what questions will come their way. Robbo decided to pose his own questions. Pity the questions he asked were sch!tt.

The Captain's run usually only features the 23 players named in the squad (not yet named) and the emergencies. Occasionally some of the players listed on the injury list will be doing their own programs on the periphery. The Demon listed Casey players sometimes do a session prior to or after the Captain's Run.

Are you descended from Jane Austen, WCW? Delightful turn of phrase. So much better than ‘was crook’.

Petty nailing shots on goal. As are Melks and Kozzie. Fritta is the only one who’s missed a shot. Dead in front 20 metres out. He’ll hear about it from me 😂

Lol. This isn't the first time @WalkingCivilWar has totally [censored] up the date on a training thread nor is it the first time I have missed her mistake. 😜

You started the thread. 😎

My initial correction was to change the format of 8 to 8th.

This would have to be the cruisiest training session ever. And the shortest. They’re done already.

    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
