    Captain’s run is always a short session. They came out at 9:45 and were done by 10:20.

    Poor bastards… the closest they came to having spectators was when me and my gaggle of girls were walking past them and we slowed down ever so slightly and glanced at them.

    A lot of set shot practicing today.

    Also, Kozzie was with two trainers practicing crumbing in the goal square. They’d get the ball to him low to the ground, dribbling (the ball, not the trainers 😅) and he’d scoop it up and snap at goal. Even though it was just training, it was a joy to watch. He was mesmerising.

    Anyways, the usual apologies for the quality of these vids. And muting them may be best since my girls do luvs them some chitter chatter. 🤗

    Looked like some transition practice.  Accuracy might win/lose the game, so good on them for practicing.  Well done WCW and your merry band!

    That was inadvertently snarky of me 😂 good one for reading into it like that though Saty!

    Well no it seems certain that FullArton will never get a game.  If not now, when?  And Schache.

    So Petty, JVR and Turner will be carrying the ruck duties.  Petty with a recovering ankle / foot / calf problem, JVR our most valuable tall forward, and Turner the hybrid utility tall I guess.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
