My mission today is to give Pup a big ol’ bear hug and tell him how proud of him we all are. And to hear straight from the *horse’s mouth if Ricky will be on the park on Friday night.
 

*not to be confused with other horse parts as per another thread 🫣

    Salo is in rehab group with BBB and Marty. (Video forthcoming )

    Melks again said “two weeks” I said “still two weeks???” He said “You only asked me on Friday!” 😂

    Bear hug given  ✅ Pup all smiles.

    It was the usual "flush" session.

    All 23 from Saturday night there - although Viney was in a tracksuit top, taking it easy (not unusual for these sessions).

    Spirits were good.

    Salo did not do the soccer drill, but Lever did - looks ready.

    No AFL listed players who played for Casey present today.

    Melksham joined the main group (see above).

    Hunter and Hore both did some warm-ups, but not the soccer, so neither seem ready yet.

    Is Ricky Lever a cert for this week?

    This convo took place-

    Me: Hey Ricky! Friday?

    Rick: What about Friday? What’s on?

    Me: (eye roll) Are you playing on Friday?

    Rick: If Goody picks me

    Me: Yeah there’s three or four before you, right?

    Rick: Yeah so I’m a roughie

    Me: Hopefully a few go down between now and Friday and you’ll be picked in desperation

    Rick: Then I’d better make sure I’m on the plane on Thursday

     

    So I guess that’s a YES 😅

    MH27 said they’ve told him another week or two.

    JV7 rocking a footy boot and a Birkenstock. I asked him “Is that a fashion statement? Coz if so it’s pretty sch!tt.” 😂 He agreed.

    He said he’s got a sore foot but it’s very minor and he will be right for Friday. He said he sustained it during Saturday’s match. Again, it’s nothing to be concerned about.

    BBB tweaked his knee again. Said it’s not serious though. 🤷‍♀️

    Salo said he doesn’t know if he’ll be right by Friday. His exact words were, “I hope so, but at this stage I’m not sure.”

    Unfortunately it seems it's permanently tweaked

    When you’re posing for a pic and just before it’s taken you say, “Don’t go getting the wrong idea. You’re a coach and I’m a fan but that’s all it will ever be. K?!”

    Salem could have been an absolute star of the game if his body wasn’t permanently letting him down. Such a shame. 
    Also great that Viney has a sore foot. Our midfield is absolutely loving life right now 🫠😭

    I took 13 videos. The sun was in my eyes so some of them are not great. This is my favourite one coz they’re all so happy and they’re really enjoying themselves. I also LOVE Chin’s dramatic drop to the turf. 😅

    I haven’t watched all of these, so sorry in advance if I repeated any of them. They’re a bit all over the shop since sometimes I thought I was filming but wasn’t, and vice versa.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
