In beautiful sunshine, the boys are out on Traeger Park. A few players doing specific drills while almost everyone else is having goal kicking practice. Jake doing some sort of resistance or strengthening work with a rubber tether. Clarry doing some running through the middle of the ground. Kosi spectating so far. Jack was out there for a while but can’t see him now. Only a handful of spectators.

 

Wish I was there 😀

Session finished with the boys coming to the fence, signing autographs and posing for selfies. All smiles. Only perhaps 100 fans at best, so everyone had a spot on the fence and could get involved. A guy next to me told one of the players that he'd come from Toronto for the game! I thought I'd done well to make it here from Melbourne. Shout out to him if he reads this.

Langdon, still doing laps I imagine.

Traeger Park in great condition for the game. Boys were fantastic as usual signing autographs and having a chat. Perfect game day weather for tomorrow


Apologies if I've missed updates elsewhere - is Kozz a certainty to play?

Only players I didn't spot were Sparrow and Petty, but that doesn't mean they weren't there because every player was wearing the same T-shirt and shorts, many with identical caps. But those two didn't come to the fence to sign autographs, so I don't think they were there, or perhaps went off the ground early as did Viney and Lever.

They were both there FM. 👍

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • 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.
