 A lovely late morning run, they were very chirpy and enjoying session.

Not training, but down at Gosch's was Goldrick and Colvin, Harris and Beasley also on the boundary or assisting.

Hose was rehabbing, doing sharp, short, change of direction runs and some jogging under trainer's supervision. 

Light duties (all in runners) included, McNamara, Paxman, and possibly Rigoni (ran some drills but didn't participate in sims or structural drills).

Hore did some running and short sprints. Joined the group for some structural sims, but didn't do the full sims. Looks like she will be right to go.

Twenty-four players that are fit and in full training. 

The goal kicking practice started well, though deteriorated as they went.

Skills were very good in the structural sims and the sims. They were working on the short passes in the forward area and creating overlap run through the corridors.

Standouts Hanks, Heath, Zanker, Gillard. S.Taylor, and Gall.

    Could be last time to see them on the track, this season

    (Though, hoping the Boos do us a favour, and we also get through the Woods)

    I posted this over on the Hawks game thread. Curious, the reference to (optimism about?) 'next week'!😄

    Anyway, it also confirms most of the unavailables for Saturday.

    There was only me as a spectator at the Tuesday open training.

    I hope a few turn up to show support to the MFC AFLW, at their possible last run for the year. They deserve it.

    An incredible turn around mid season. Very proud of them.

    We'll miss Goldy, I think she's been our best this season.

    We've still got a heap out injured but we're playing incredibly well.

    Go the Blues.... By a point

    • 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.
