Drove past Junction Oval this morning and thought I saw a small group of what seemed Melbourne players out on the oval, could this be the start of special training and Baileys teachings? did anyone else notice it? I could be wrong, who knows..

The bulldogs 1st year players started back today, could be something like that, those who joined this year getting in for extra weights and fitness.

I can confirm that a small group of our boys were ordered to Junction oval today to have a small session with Dean Bailey and Paul Williams

The players were Colin Sylvia, Brent Moloney, Jace Bode, Simon Buckley, Clint Bartram and Ricky Petterd

Your guess is as good as mine as to why those guys were singled out

When do Bailey and Co. leave for China? I thought they were gone by now.

Buckley seems the odd one out, because the other 5 have had injury worries in 2007 so it's possible that they are starting on a modified program a bit earlier than the rest of the group.

Isn't Bartram meant to be in China?

Bailey is in CHina, so either someone is telling me porkies or they got a name mixed up

i dont know about everyone else...but all of this excites me a lot...can't wait to see what we can get out of sylvia and pettard. maybe if sylvia fails in the midfield we might be able to turn him into robbos replacement in a couple of years...just a suggestion

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    TRAINING: Wednesday 12th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
