PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 12th November 2025

Featured Replies

Just letting folks know that immediately following the men’s session this morning the W will be running out for a session.

Their session goes from 10:30 - 12:30. It would be great to see spectators hang around for it, even part of it.

I understand not everyone has the luxury of working around training sessions as I do, but the girls are currently in a finals campaign and need more love and support than ever. So, if you can, please stay around for the W.

 

Love your work Ghosty

Check on Goldy for me please

The W? I know I'm being slightly pedantic here but what's wrong with "women"?

@Ghostwriter are the ladies training tomorrow at Gosch's? In town for AC/DC and would love to get to a session.

Thank goodness for the training reports they just cancelled Moreton zisland due to rough conditions for the ships tenders. Lying up on L14 watching Mufasa Lion King.👍😁

Isn’t supposed to be float and bloat

Thanks for the report.

The Norfolk Island Masters Squash tournament is now the focus for me.

Just careful with loading to ensure peak condition for competition next week.

They won’t be at Gosch’s tomorrow. They’ll be here on Friday morning at 10:30 when the men finish their session.

Had the good fortune to have a chat with Kingy today. He wandered over to the boundary line when he finished putting out the cones for the next activity. My first impressions were that he was personable, straightforward and very tall. He said that training wouldn’t be too intensive in the first few sessions, as the full list joined the group. I mentioned that it was good to see Brodie and AMW progressing so well. He said Brodie was busting to join the main group and it was a battle to hold AMW back until Christmas. I asked him what his first impressions of the training group were. He said he was impressed with the overall fitness. He singled out the Roo, saying he had lost kilos but gained strength. We both agreed that ‘the current # 4’ (Harvey) was set to take the next step. He said that Jai Culley was in the best three on the track on Monday. A few other enthusiastic observers joined in the conversation. He also agreed that Windsor was a standout in the first session. One notable comment he made was about putting up the ‘team’ for round 1 for the players... there were no names on the list!

I arrived at the end of mens training. Very impressed that both teams came together. Ladies team was training well. I had the great pleasure of talking to my great friend the wonderful Ghostwriter. Ghosty tells me that the men trained at great intensity. Also there were no soccer balls at training. I am very pleased that they are practising with afl balls, and not soccer balls. New coach is bringing high standards to training.

Training today was more laid-back than Monday. More about patterns for quick transfer than intense pressure on the ball-carrier. They did do a two-lap time trial. Sharpie was once again the standout in his group, with Tholstrup not too far behind. I noticed that Berry was content to bring up the rear, as he manages his transfer to the elite level.

Kolt looked quite trim in some of the training photos, good to hear he was running well

And while we’re at it what’s wrong with “ground” or “Melbourne Cricket Ground” or “Self contained breathing apparatus” or just “apparatus” or “Australian football league” or “Melbourne Football club”’and “demons”!

Ban all acronyms and nicknames!!! We should say everything in full or not at all!

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
