Could somebody please let Picket Fence know that they’re training at Casey tomorrow morning at 9:30am. I’d tell him myself except he’s now got me on ignore. 😁

A full mailbox is a more likely explanation.

    Looked at the time like he tweaked his shoulder slightly. Hoping he's all good.

    It was unusual seeing him without strapping on his shoulders. I can't remember when he didn't have his shoulder strapped.  I wonder why now - it seems like a big risk.

    WCW I do enjoy your posts because apart from being a Dee fanatic you often supply relevant info rather than the rumour and opinion that most of us indulge in .But you can be a bit precious at times ,such as this one ,so it is better to just move on .

    I admit I can be a bit precious at times, but this isn’t one of those times. Picket Fence bid me goodbye “princess” and put me on ignore. I won’t lose sleep over it, in fact I think it’s hilarious. But I really do want him to know training is at Casey tomorrow because his training reports are great.

    Gary Baker used to run rock wall restaurant at Salamanca Hobart. Not only a great restaurant but Gary and his wife were terrific hosts. No matter how long between visits they remembered you and they loved seeing Dees supporters. So not only was he great player but a top bloke.

    Definitely one of the nicer steaks you could get in Hobart IMO!

    Okaaaaay 😳

    The last sentence needs rephrasing since it sounds like I’m part of your distant but pleasant *ranatunga down the throata memory.

    Other than that, it’s all G  🙂



    *Henceforth I’ll never look at Arjuna Ranatunga the same way again. Ever 😑

    I'd be incredibly surprised it that was the case and it would be plain stupid by the club.

    Anyone that has missed a year with a knee injury would know you need definitely full match practice under your belt before you're at maximum level.

    Melksham will need a number of weeks at Casey for not only match conditioning but also to get form. 

    Some are forgetting that he's nearly 33 and at the wrong end of his career coming of a 12 month injury. Highly unlikely we'll see his best again especially with the way our forward line is functioning which has been sub par.

    It could be a great way to badly tear a calf or hamstring.

    Do you agree Webber?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
