Anyone who’s heading over to Gosch’s this morning should keep in mind that this ISN’T an open training session. It may be cancelled or relocated without notice (this even applies to open sessions) so please don’t be mad at me if this happens. By all means be mad, just not at me. 😃

I understand a portable "Great Wall of China" has been erected around the perimeter to keep snoops out! Seriously how can you police not an open session at Gosch's ???

Yeah nah, not looking promising. The truck’s not here, the marquee’s not up. Maybe they’re starting later, who knows 🤷‍♀️ 
 

If there’s no session here, me and my Gosch’s crew might head over to the other oval and see if Collingwood are training. If so, anyone got any message they’d like passed on to any Collingwood player? And by passed on I mean rudely screamed at.

I don’t think a verbal message is needed, just drop off a truck load of pickle juice. They will get it.

Ghosty   given your "closeness" to players and trainers and stuff,  Can't you get on the players general email training notification sms list.

Like is not as if you are going to broadcast it to all the other clubs training spies,  then you get the info direct when the players get it.  Enjoy your day this afternoon.

Good chance they are in at the meeting,  studying the GWS game in detail, getting the roles established. 

We will have a strategic advantage over their early physical preparation. 

They will hit the paddock post lunch.

I apologize for speaking before Ghostwriter has had a chance to respond, but I don’t think she should be asked to do stuff that would compromise the trust the entire football department has for her. We benefit from her great relationship with players already. Let’s leave it at that.

I have the phone numbers of the property manager and one of his volunteers, which is way more useful than the players and even the coaches. They know stuff-all about when/where sessions are right up until the night before. I’ve actually had players ask me where their next session is. True story. 😂

As for today, this was a last minute change. The property guys let me know at 9:15am which was when the session was to begin. That’s nice of them but would’ve been great to have known before I got there 😭

Didn't some irate Richmond supporter years ago get a truckload of manure dropped outside Richmond headquarters? It wouldn't be original but it'd be a heartfelt message I'm sending the Filth.

Back here at Gosch’s. They’re already out on the park. They’re playing soccer, red vs blue. They’re serious but having a blast  

Kolt and Luker kick-to-kick under the watchful eye of Chocco, except not watchful for the past 15 minutes while he was chatting to me. 😅

Marty is practicing tackling with Keith the physio. 
 

LOL Claz just kicked a goal and the celebration was wild, just like in real soccer games. I’m not 100% sure but he dropped to his knees and I think he kissed the turf. 


Ghostwriter your dedication to our boys is extraordinary. Many thanks for all your reports, your sense of humour, and inside information is amazing.

Practising goal kicking and what a shame no Koz for the first few rounds.

Jeffo slotting them. As is Roo. And Claz. 
 

wow. Shortest session ever. They’re slowly going back to the rooms already 

What’s Kozzy’s body language like ? Noticed he unfollowed the club on instagram again, wondering if he seems a bit checked out or not, particularly with two of his closest mates AMW and Shane out for the year as well

I knew he had unfollowed the Dees a while ago. Did he re-follow them again only to unfollow them a second time?

Interestingly he follows these two clubs.

Jeepers.. not a great look is it.

Praying the Dogga rumours are true so we don’t get absolutely fleeced when he requests a trade this off season 🙏

  • 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?
