Demonland on the up and up! Seems like onlya few months ago I rang in the big #1000 with joy...

Maybe make a thread mods? Or is that a self gratifying waste of time?

Wow!

Th anks guys for your magnificent efforts in getting the pics of the boys and the great report. This is when we appreciate it the most. The off season is so hard for us interstaters and your reports on training keep me going.

Jonesy- wow - 19 and his dedication and fitness so early is fabulous.

Brock - Good to see him up and at it and his attitude is great. I heard the talk with Max Walker in China and I liked what I heard. He will be captain one day I am sure.

Jared - good to see him out on the track although as others have said we need to beef him up so he will be able to return to his best if not better and stand his ground down back.

Good to hear Beamer is back running and hopefully he will be back to his form in his first year with us. Nothing I liked much better than seeing him full steam ahead and then the booming kick in to Neita..gives you a tingle down your spine, it does.

So well done guys and I look forward to many more.

After exams I might be tempted to hit-up another session at Trinity (which is much closer to me), with fellow reporter Coxy in tow if he's around. One question; is 'Trinity' the actual Trinity Grammar School, in the Kew area, or is it their Sports Grounds, near the Veneto Club around Bulleen way?

As a former Trinity Grammarian I can say that it is in fact their sports grounds.

After this coming wednesday I will be an exam free man, consider me locked in for whenever...

Maybe I should bring the running attire and make an attempt at keeping up with Jonesy :lol:

It's a shame about bartram not running in the group he has potential to be an elite footballer if he ever get's over this injury.All i can say is he won't be the same as he was on field. :(

That is the ultra ultra ultra pessimistic view.

Jones is a freak. Looks like he's hit the gym over the break...imagine this midfield: Jones, McLean, Cotchin, fit and firing Sylvia. BANG. Any sign of Whelan? Will be a handy inclusion into our backline in 2008.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
