    Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train.

    Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

    I doubt it’s that reason.

    SEN interviewed Jace Burgoyne from Port and he indicated that training for the indigenous team would occur next week.

    I think they’re just easing his load a little as he’s missing (yet again) the first 3 games and the team needs to put in structures and strategies without him.

    Can't he catch up? Either do something at home, say if he has an exercise bike, or more realistically do a bit extra at the next few sessions?  If you get a chance maybe ask one of the coaches/staff today.

    Maybe he is too embarrassed to face his teammates after the news story and called in sick.

    Back: May, Petty, Howes, Windsor, Salo

    Mids: Gawn, Riv, Viney, Sparrow, Billings, Lindsay 

    Fwd: Disco, JVR, Fritsch, Sharp, Langford, Langdon

    Sharp busy, Langford found good space for 2 snags, Fritsch a class above, Disco with a nice grab. Salo with a lot of the best patches of ball movement with some Windsor moments too.

    White backline: T Mc, Adams, Hore, Bowey, Sesto, AMW were under the pump.

    Jeffo juggled contested mark on the wing, in to Andy, picks out the Yze lead to the picket who nails a tight shot under plenty of Viney sledging

    I don’t think the Jeffo, Aj, Yze, Ricky Mentha, Roy George forward line will get a run at Afl level but they’ll be fun at Casey

    Fullarton, Tracc, Chandler doing another stuff 

    McVee, Lever, Verrall and Kossie unsighted. Plus Kolt and Luker

    There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to get up and out from under “the pack” to get the ball and all I can see is that scene from Kindergarten Cop

    Shuffled the teams and pulled a few out so it’s opened right up. Clarry prolific, Langford still finding the ball. May has dominated defensively in both drills really.

    Ollie Sestan is a lovely user at half back, not sure if the rest of his game will stack up but his kicking is lovely.

    Jeffo (I’m watching closely) with a beautiful turn of pace, run through a couple of tackles and corridor kick

    Hard to pay full attention with a 3 year old running amok but there were three clear standouts for me from what I saw: Fritsch, Windsor and Langford.

    Tall backs and Forwards did some marking work

    Mids some rough stoppage on the wing stuff.

    Laurie copped a nice one from Rivers in a tackle and went off with a blood nose 

    Some different running, sprints for some, longer runs for others. Lindsay dropped by Bowey and Howes in a longer run.

    Judd McVee is out there, did I completely miss him?

    Tracc’s doing set shots. 

    Yze, Culley, Roy and Mitch KS were the fill in players today.

    I attended some of the training session this morning. During match sim, I was very impressed by Fritsch, Windsor, Langford, and Billings. Trac still training on sidelines, but looks close to returning to main training. Meltsham was running laps in rehab due to hamstring injury. Spare and McAdam running laps.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.
