Wrecker... Cheers.

Living so far away from Melbourne, posts like this are gold.

Maloney deserves his spot, he works so hard.

Jones, what can we say, here is our star.

Thanks mate.

Diabalo, get out there with that camera next week mate.

Thanks for the training updates. I would never have put Beamer right up there in the spatial awareness categories, as he always, always gets tackled trying to take on a second and third opponent when breaking out of a pack. Good for him though that he's finally able to have a flying pre-season.

As for Wheels, bit of a worry if he's in the rehab group again this pre-season as he was last year. At his age and with the style of football he plays, is his body starting to let him down? Lets hope not, or its a slippery slope to retirement.

I expect to see a photo in the paper the day after all our draftees join their first training session, the obligatory 'group shot', each holding a footy, smiling and quoted as saying 'its great to be training with some of my boyhood idols' and 'I didnt realise it would be so intense'...

well today is actually the day the new draftees start training! so i wonder if anyone went down and checked it out

A new generation is emerging, a full cycle is almost complete-

1. Knowing how to spell

2. Not knowing how to spell because the spellchecker corrects everything anyway.

3. Not knowing how to spell, and being on a forum/chat which doesn't have a spell checker.

4. wtf lol

5. Callaps of civilizashun as we konw it

This is what happened to the Romans, I swear.

'Visigoth' is actually spelt 'Visalageth'.

Fight Back! Hand write a letter to your grandmother. It's the only hope.

they should be like me. get fire fox. install the spell check add on. and you'll never have this problem again.

(unfortunately, it doesn't force capital letters like in word yet...)

Is Cyril Rioli not doing the Kokoda Trail?

Or is that later in the week?

One thing on Beama - bumped into him in Barcelona during... late Sept i think, a few days before the whole nath carroll/ brock/ rivers saga and he said he's feeling better than he has for a few years.

Look for a great season from this guy.

actually 2 more things - he's one of the best blokes i've met, AFL but otherwise also. But not always the smartest - managed to have his camera, wallet and watch pinched whilst he had a nanna nap on the beach that night before we went out tot he club.

But a really good bloke nonetheless

Yup ... and there it is. http://www.melbournefc.com.au/Default.aspx...mp;newsId=53917 not holding footballs though, but with arms folded is the second choice....

    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.

    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
