Cold and (very) wet, yet not a puffa to be seen, not even long sleeves!

    I think 'I is i' brings an important philosophical side to the training routine.

    Tomorrow's session will focus on transition from half-back and Wittgenstein's early work. It will not be open to the public.

    Troop on, Ghosty, every typo is a proud scar!

    Speaking of which, did they 'put a fork in the ground under Steven King' as described over a zero hanger?

    Ten points for whoever can get a player or coach to do that first.

    Liv rehabbing. Tayla’s here but watching from the sidelines. Grace training with the main group, as is Blaithin.

    Tackling practice and watching Heater drag Loz Pearce into the ground is something I could watch all day.

    • Demonland changed the title to AFLW TRAINING: Wednesday 22 October 2025

    Good to catch up with Ghosty, Slarti and Tim at training this morning. Our women were fortunate that the rain stopped for most of the session.

    All in good spirits. Goldy absent and Tayla watched on whilst Liv Purcell did her post-ACL rehab work.

    Great to see Grace Beasley getting close to a recall - we will need midfield depth going into finals. Blaithin and Maggie Mahony seemed to test well. Even though Georgia Gall is listed as one week, she was moving well today.....maybe a chance to play?

    Will be interesting to see if she gets the call up at some stage or if we stick with the status quo. Certainly a welcome option if there are injuries. Tough for a three-game player coming off such a long lay-off, though they've clearly taken a careful approach.

    When Georgia's good to go, she's obviously in, but I wonder if we're starting to look a bit tall then.

    I remember Grace’s three games being pretty outstanding though. I imagine the plan coming into the season was for Kate to play more forward with a more stacked midfield but injuries to Purcell, Mackin and Beasley have prevented that. If she gets her game ready I suspect she’ll be in.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
