Reviewing the Dees' Instagram story on today’s training, it appears Shane McAdam is now participating in drills; has he progressed beyond the running stage?

He was participating in all the warm up drills the other day which involved running and some kicking but once training proper started including contact drills and other craft dirlls he entered his tailored rehab schedule which was mostly running.

    Photo gallery on MFC site from today's training has various pics of AMW, Salem, CJ, Petty and McAdam in some level of ball work in individual shots. Good to see they're all passed the point of just running laps and hopefully on the way to match practice shortly.
    Edit: And per social video Culley in some level of modified training.

    Most long term supporters know to ignore the PR BS that comes from the Club about injured players.

    Bowey, Viney & McAdam will provide very little this year.

    Don’t mean this to be a shot at him but it will come across as one.

    Can he kick more than 35 meters now?

    I recall when he did play a game for us he couldn’t make 35 meters and probably only made it to the top of the square.

    gOTD we will just have to wait and see how Shane progresses, if his body holds up who knows but if he can’t sustain his fitness you are probably right.

    Can you or someone please provide a link.. I honestly cannot find it at all…I’ve looked on both the MFC app and their web site, and the latest reports etc that I can find, all seem to be about the intra-club match and injury reports.

    On my drive to work this morning I saw the lads walking towards the Tan, early morning run before the heat it seems.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • 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.
