Where to begin?

Firstly Maysie was here but didn’t train. I was talking to Chocco who told me No Spaz, No Leb this week. He said Leb is probs right to play but they’re “looking after him for next year.” Then he said, “Maysie’s looking good though.” I said, “Will he be playing this week?” He says, “Should be. Here we go, let’s see what he thinks!” Maysie happened to be approaching us. Chocco says, “WCW here wants to know if you’re playing on Friday. Maysie very eloquently said, “fckn oath I am!!!” 😂

I was chatting with Keith (Tracc’s physio). We talked about how happy the boys were to have Tracc there today. He agreed and said, “And Christian is just as happy to be with them.” We talked about how quickly things can turn 180 degrees and basically who’da thunk?! He obviously didn’t tell me details of this morning’s team meeting but he didn’t have to… another guy who’d be cr@p at Poker. 😁

Then I told him how awful it is that Tracc being here probs won’t even make the news since it’s a good news thing. Keith pointed to a reporter being filmed reporting on the session. He dared me to tell them what I think about their gutter journalism. Not one to ever back down from a challenge, I did exactly that. The reporter’s name is Adrian and he’s with channel 10. Spewing it wasn’t Tom Morris, but then I would’ve been the top news story tonight for all the wrong reasons. 🤪 He said they were gonna meet with their producer etc. and work out which way to approach the reporting. Fear not fellow Demonlanders, Adrian was told in no uncertain terms how WE believe today should be reported. And if I’m not mistaken, I believe he may’ve peed his pants a little. I may be small, but [censored] with my team and I’m effectively 10 feet tall.

Speaking of height, no Claz today so I walked to AAMI with KFW. I asked him what his official height is and he said he still hasn’t been measured but he thinks he’s 6ft10 😳 He said when he stands next to Max he feels like he’s the same height as him, “sometimes a little taller.” Again… 😳 And yes, I said that might just be because of his hair coupled with Max’s lack of.

Finally, when everyone had left Tracc was lightly jogging/walking  around the boundary with Selwyn. As he passed I said, “Hey Tracc, just want you to know we all love you.” He said, “Cheers, thanks for that.” with a smile that could stop world wars. Then I met another spectator who reads DL but doesn’t post, a lovely lady, We chatted for a bit and in that time Tracc came past again. I said, “Hey Tracc, just want you to know nothing’s changed since I last told you… we still all love you.” He laughed and said, “Awesome! See you next lap.” 😂

In summary, a fantastic session. The mood was incredibly good. The quiet achiever aka Goody had a look of pride on his face that was heartwarming and I hope to keep seeing it.

This is a great insight into training and your interactions.  It has made me smile

Tell Keith the next you see him that he looked better in purple.

You are a national treasure.

I will tune into channel 10 news for the first time in a decade to see Adrian quivering as he delivers the news that the MFC is the happiest place on earth.

Ummmm who is Spaz?

😂 Tommy Sparrow. I personally don’t like calling him Spaz but his mum told us that’s been his nickname for a long time and he won’t hear of changing it.

I won’t be able to watch it 😭

can you please post what they say about it please?? Interested to know which way they spin this.

I see Sesto in the back of that video? Any info on why he didn’t play for Casey on the weekend?

VFL guys still on deck? Obviously the young guys have to be but if I was BBB, Hunter or Schache and not getting a fair well I’d skip the training.

Melbourne fan threatens reporter for saying bad things about her club. Coriander was exchanged. Things got nasty.

Tom Morris over and out.

You know how you see/hear stories of someone coming “back to the fold”?? Yeah well today was a perfect example of that. A seamless return to the fold.

They were there. BBB was on the stationary bike and had one knee strapped. Weasel (Schache) trained. No sign of Hunter but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t there. He’s proved to be the invisible man of late.

Sad hugs for BBB. What an incredible human being he is. Awkward hugs with Jeffo since I reflexively recoiled when I felt how sweaty he was. 🤭

Will he report on the scary looking lady that approached him during filming? 🤣🤣

Apologies to @dazzledavey36 who said the boys call Judd “Silk” to which I replied “No they don’t, they call him Knuckles.” The large-knuckled boy himself said he gets called both names, he likes both names and wait for it… he doesn’t mind either name, he’s just “happy to be in the team.” Blesssssss 🥹 I can sense Luci tearing up right now. 😁

He knows better than to do that. 😉

So I'm led to believe Tracc is staying and all is right in the world? If so he really needs to come out and say it.

I wonder if he's on afl360 anytime soon. That would be worth the price of admission

Leb sans moonboot. He’s rapt to have given it the boot (see what I did there?!) He’s one on one with a physio.

No Spaz here. He’s now in a moonboot and won’t be playing on Friday.

Chin running laps around the boundary  

Tracc also one on one with a physio. 

The boys are absolutely loving it that he’s here. Like, really really happy. A lot of laughing and mucking around with him. Judging by this the team meeting went very well.

 

Surely we have more than one moonboot??

Although it could explain why Maxy had to get out of the moonboot so early. 🤔
And thanks, I think I now know why so many people are commenting about herbs. I think.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
