Interesting that they aren't using Casey. The Tracc influence? 

By the way, the surface of Gosch's is looking and feeling great. Plenty of give, and the scuff marks and divots have been worked on (filled over during the men's off-season).

"They’re training at Gosch’s on Monday morning, they leave to attend the camp in Bright the following Monday and at this stage (because of the draft next week) there won’t be any sessions for the remainder of next week."

That seems really odd to me. 

I assumed that the info from the Ghost has them travelling after the Nov 18 for their camp. Which could be in Bright and on the way home, perhaps they are dropping into Mansfield, or they are in Mansfield the entire time.

Draught night is Wednesday 20th and Thursday 21st. I imagine the new draftees would go camping as well.

Leaves us speculating from the 18th to 25th November about what they are up to.

Perhaps the camp is after the 26th Nov?

According to The Age scribes Oliver "...was in excellent touch and condition, and appears to be motivated to rebound after a turbulent 2024..." 

He looks pretty good in their picture

Hmm, I might pop in tomorrow (during a bike ride) to see how the boys are going.

Who else is going?

 

I will be attending some of the training tomorrow.

No Casey training so far. 

I wonder if it was ditched (or used only when necessary) as part of the FD review and player feedback.

It was reported on Demonland that they are upgrading/working on the surface at Casey field.

Yeah I can't imagine they'll be ditching Casey anytime soon for training.

Not so long ago they were trumpeting their brand spanking new indoor training facilities.

I'm sure I read somewhere that Casey has been unavailable due to resurfacing or some other type of work being carried out on the ground.

A few hours earlier:😉😁

Thanks Kev - the website is silent about the rest of this week. Will the boys be training Wednesday and Friday also?

Your guess is as good as mine. Probably, they will train Wednesday and Friday (same place and time), then the Christmas break.

I was told it’s Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at Gosch’s at 10am with the final session on Wednesday 18th. But that was a fortnight ago so I’ll check with my guy this morning and post on here.

Can you ask about January by any chance?  When they'll be back after Christmas and if it's at Casey or Gosche's?

Will do, Kit Kat. I was told they resume at Gosch’s on January 9th but I’ll double check.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership.
