TRAINING: Gather Round

Hi Guys,

Possibly starting this thread early.

Last year the club had an open training session for fans in Adelaide prior to the gather round Match.

I booked the day off work, was all set and then got a really bad virus the day before the training.  I didn’t want to share that - especially around the players - so couldn’t go.

Hoping for some good news that it will run again this year, hopefully I can get leave again, any info on plans would be greatly appreciated.

    I reckon they’ll let us know closer to the time. Maybe if/when anyone hears anything about it they can pull up this thread and post. I certainly will if I hear of any plans. Hopefully you’re not unwell this year.

    I don't know why but I thought our game this year was in the Hills, at Mt Barker. Just looked and thankfully it's at Adelaide Oval. Hope you get a good session Rossmillan, but these captains runs do seem to be a lot of [censored] and giggle. Good to get a real size reference for the players though. Enjoy!!

    I hope the following helps @jaydenh10 , from the MFC:

    "…….join the Dees for open training, player signings, giveaways, and family fun on Friday 11 April from 3–5PM at Hisense Stadium.”

    • 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.
