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: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
