Trac did not look happy much of the time (in Mansfield) He trained hard and well (another observation).

Perhaps he’s feeling a tad ‘sheepish’ (but not in a conspiracy theory way) after all of the brouhaha (now there’s a word you don’t hear too often) and is keeping a low profile.

Regardless of what he is thinking, he’ll still give his all, as he is the consummate professional; and besides, he knows that in the interests of his ‘brand’, he must perform on the field.

So much written by so many who know so little about one player.

I’ll give you my in-depth analysis of Trac’s psychological condition after I’ve been to training on Monday. You can take it to the bank!

Judging from the photo gallery Day five looked like they had a big day out in their respective teams, a lot of determined looking faces and it was pretty warm conditions. The shots in the gym they look lean and mean how strong does Langford look.😁

I really like our new training jumper.

Hoping we can use something similar as a clash jumper next year. The royal blue clash has been in since 2018 and I reckon we could do with a refresh.

It's awesome isn't it.

I love it. And agree it would be a terrific clash option - except against the bombers

It would be great if the club could interview a few of the players about the camp - maybe some anecdotes about the teams event, the school visits and even the training would be great media content.  Could have interviews with an older player, an up and comer, and a new draftee.

It would be disappointing if the camp goes by without such content being created and shared.

They did an interview with Rivers… but a few more would be good

Love it.

I do like the royal blue jumper though.

Nothing wrong with having a few different clash jumpers though!

Do we have anyone on the list with any serious injury concerns?…….it appears not and if that is the case we are in a very very good spot right now. Out of sight, out of the news, off to the side of the draw and fully fit. As usual my confidence is building through preseason.

Any clash guernsey that isn't white or grey will be fine. Happy enough with our current 1975-1986 retro royal blue version though.

Yes, grey and white are the colours of weakness and surrender, as opposed to the years at the MFC circa 1975-1986…

Any chance we can get Neale Daniher to hide in the woods and fire a few rifle rounds at the lads to keep them sharp?

Crazy that that was only ~20 years ago. He’d be sacked for that these days

Not a fan of the training jumper at all but we all have opinions

Id personally go for same colours (as home jumper) for the clash just inverted colours

I think it was John Northey who set that up a few years earlier than Neil...had a mate hiding out.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
