This morning’s session will go for only an hour. Minus putting boots on, water/sunscreen breaks and play-fights, that’s approximately 13 mins of legit training. Therefore please don’t expect much of a training report (looking at you, @Roost it far) 😁

    You know you’re in strife when members of your team are making excuses before the event even starts.

    There may not be a training report at all since there may not be training. We’ve been here since 8:30am and there’s no sign of anyone. Usually by now the truck is here and the property guys are setting up props etc. and the marquee is up.

    Have I missed a weather report that says Cyclone Alfred is heading to Gosch's Paddock?

     

    PS: Please stay safe anyone in Alfred's path.

    Kicking drills including set shots in 3 rotating grps all appearing slightly different. No real running in bw which explains the 1 lap warm up

    Today is about fun. They are so happy and playful. Doing drills and sh!tt stirring at the same time. This drill seems to be about reaction times. There’s double handballs flying around players in a circle.

    Now there’s eight players in a circle with four balls being handballed and the idea is you can’t have two balls at once, ie. you have to give off the ball before you receive another.

    Can't see him out there. Might be training with the Casey team now.

    Agree with the above, definitely not a 'serious' training session today. Plenty of light handball and kicking drills. Everyone looks in good spirits.

    He trained yesterday. Was in the photos. Maybe there was a cut off point for non-listed players?

    That looks like a wrap. Not much to report today!

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
