The Melbourne Football Club has gone bush to a magnificent part of Central Victoria. 

The boys were photographed today at various locations around Yea - at Sacred Heart Primary School and at Yea High School.

Tomorrow, it’s off to Mansfield for Open Training at the Mansfield Recreation Reserve (9am - 10am) followed by a Player Signing Session (10am - 10.15am).

    The main focus of this morning's training was transition speed. Ball movement was the main focus. There was very little contested work except for a one-on-one marking drill and a two-man ball contest.

    Player 1 would mark the ball and immediately look left and right to handball to player 2 running by. Player 2 would then kick 20-30m, either laterally or straight ahead, to player 3. The kicking and handball skills were outstanding given the speed the players were travelling and the slippery conditions of the ground. Chocco took this drill and was quiet for the whole duration—a give-away that he was most pleased. Having said this, the players were not yet fatigued, as it was in the first half hour of training.

    Next, there was a lot of running around the centre square, then running between 50m mark to 50m mark. Standouts were Sharp and Brown. Clarry and Tracc at the back. Aiden J in the middle and not out of place.

    Last major exercise was a transition drill from one end of the ground to the other with players at high speed connecting with handball and kicking. While it was performed at a high level, it was obvious the players were more fatigued and targets were missed. Not many mind you.

    Player watch:

    Jefferson - is a very confident man now and looks imposing. Didn't put a foot wrong in the drills.

    Fullerton - impressed with his ground ball skills.

    McAdam - on the rowing machine. Not sure whether he is injured or is just underdone still.

    Fritsch - running laps. appears to be quad related.

    Rivers - no sign of him.

    Langford - similar height to JVR. We are going to love him. 

    Mentha - struggling with fitness which is understandable. Does have some size about him.

    Kentfield - foot skills a bit iffy.

    Johnson - does everything pretty well without being exceptional. He is pretty fit.

    Clarry - certainly does not look like an athlete, but great to see him out there and happy.

    Lever, Spargo, Lindsay, Campbell - rehab.

    Finished training with the team signing autographs and having photos taken with over 100 kids. They were off then to Bright.

    Kossie looks to have changed shape, and that's good. I hope they are working on endurance running with him. Good start.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
