TRAINING: Wednesday 24th July 2024



Recommended Posts

My sister from another mister attended training at Casey today, she was the sole spectator. These are her notes. She says apologies in advance if she’s left any players out or if anything is unclear. The gates weren’t open and most of the action was on the other side of the ground.

Is he a chance to miss this week?

Was getting treatment during the Freo game and looked completely out of sorts by his standards.

Big thanks WCW & Sis greatly appreciated. Wonder what is happening with Jed Adams? Hope Rick isn’t to bad and that Goody comes good soon.

Is she the same one who got a blister, playing twister, when her friend kissed her, which really p-sed her?

Trying to figure out how one gets a blister from playing Twister

Apparently Goody pretty sick ? 

Yep, it started when he watched the replay of the first half against Freo.

Symptoms - nausea, loss of hope, dizziness, mood swings

Any other news from training?

Just what’s in the OP. Without that there’d be nothing since my buddy was the only spectator - @picket fence has clearly pulled up stumps on track-watching - and she’s not even on Demonland. She takes notes for her (real, ie. biological) sister who lives in QLD and I nag her to send them to me. 

You’re welcome 😉 

 

Oh, there was one other thing: she said that early in the session the media were asked to leave, and it was then that the serious training began.

I usually play alone

That way you never lose. Amirite?

 

 I actually play Twister every Thursday night, except it’s officially called banner-making. Lots of bending and stretching just like a massive game of Twister.

Except unlike your good self, B-dog, we wear clothes. But there are rules: no shoes or bare feet, only socks (Demons socks are optional but we all wear them coz nuffies). No dresses or skirts, pants or shorts only coz aforementioned bending and stretching.

The remedy - giving the Giants a good ol’ fashioned hiding. ❤️💙

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
