Another interstate match, I probably won’t make it. Arden St would have been very convenient.

The club should bury food caches with flags at regular intervals for anyone looking to make the journey out there.

    Thanks for the report. I watch a lot of Essendon as the wife barracks for them and LuLu did not look out of place at AFL level in their injury ravaged side last year.

    Both of us were very surprised they chose to delist him and recontract some of their in-season additions. I reckon he lands back on a list ours or other at some point.

    Zero Hanger says that he's contracted with Casey for this year.

    How has Steele going?

    He seems to be integrating well. He's hard to spot because he's in the thick of things and he isn't flashy.

    Big shoutout to picket fence for his great report and rapport with Wednesday and all posters and special comments it’s pleasing to see that our new recruits and youngsters are really stepping up to fill the void left by our two former champions, a lot to like about this group.

    Both Picketts were not at training yesterday, no sign of XL either, so not sure where you’re getting this from

    Xavier Taylor’s ability to attack from defence is reminiscent of Matthew Scarlett in his prime. King must be salivating.

    Correct all 3 absent although I think XL was in rehab in the covered facility!

    Spoke with a mate of Scarlo yesterday - said he's rapt to be working with Kingy. BTW Matt is coaching one of Torquay's U16 sides where his older son plays. Henry 15 and 193cm goes OK.

    Ai says that’s a 99.9% probability Roger. Signed for Casey this season as is Tairon Ah-Mu. So the front row and full back positions are covered.

    • 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.
