    Surely we'd be able to pick up @old dee as a Cat B rookie?

    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.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
