Knuckles just limped off, doesn’t look good

edit: he’s bearing weight now. Walking freely. They’re taking him for scans

Laurie just kneed Chandler in a marking contest after too much hang time from Fullarton kick

I have Laurie down as the smokie that will surprise many this year. Uses the ball well, has some evasive skills and is getting more comfortable at this level.

It's been a long time coming but its now or never for him.

 

Great contested work by AMW but sore shoulder after it. Max puts the heat on Langford and comes out the winner. Adams redeemed with good intercepts and well placed long kicks.

Shane-o is done for the day. No he’s not injured, he’s “crook in the guts” and before anyone pipes up, he was legitimately unwell, I saw him throwing up at the boundary. 

Same difference not fit enough too much goes wrong How could you be certain of selecting him for a GF on Thursday and he be crook sick injured or any other malaise that is around to keep him pout if playing? 

Seriously he should go round in a bubble. Get him to go in I am a celebrity get me out of here and do all the eating weird trials to acclimatise to real life. 

OR 

Survivor for toughening up his body and attitude. 

Over to you Ghostwriter what excuse have you got this time?

Bucket list item ticked off today.  First training attendance.  Very excited!

If you don't write a 10 page report with individual dossiers of players performance, highlights of the day, goodys gameplan and an up-to-date injury list... did you even really go to training?

Put our best players in a yellow cap and be done with it. We’re not supposed to use their limbs to knock the house down

The return from the Christmas break has been carnage.

It seems that way for all the clubs, and based on reports, we've come through reasonably unscathed (by comparison). I wonder if the AFLPA will be convinced to reduce the xmas break from 3 weeks down to 2 weeks or 10 days. Ultimately, it will benefit the players as it will likely reduce soft tissue injuries.


I attended some of the training session this morning. Looked like they were practising some drills about near the end of games. Trac looks very good, and not far away from joining main training. Spargo is getting closer to doing more training. Judd McVee was helped off the ground with a leg injury. Hopefully scans find no serious damage.

The mood is sky-high! The energy is electric. It’s such a great place to be this morning, more so than usual. I can even hear a couple of the boys singing along with the music in the tent. In case anyone is wondering, the song is called “Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom” by Venga Boys (I had to Shazam it). 

Year 6 disco banger, or maybe that should be boomer?

Vines is at a wedding. Salo isn’t well but it’s nothing serious…. another crook in the guts by the sound of it.

He wasn’t “carted” off the field. He limped off. Jacob our club doctor said it’s not as bad as it looked anyways.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
