Cheers DD!

What's with the two bandages on Rivers' index fingers? (how I managed to focus on his fingers, I'm not sure :huh: )

    I wouldn't say Rivers was huge. Just ripped. Low body fat makes anyone look alot bigger. Still, better he be ripped then flabby.

    A few first impressions from those photos:

    Jack Grimes - this guy's living the dream playing for the team he supported growing up from the word go in his AFL career. He has a steely look of determination that says "superstar in the making" to me. This kid will be our Nathan Buckley I reckon.

    Cale Morton - all arms and legs at this stage but he's got some frame to build on you can just tell. If he does the right things in the gym this kid could turn into anything. I'm hoping he becomes a super mobile and strong CHF type (kind of like a cross between Reiwoldt and Carey).

    Stefan Martin - check out the size of those mits around the footy. Those over there in Melbourne who've watched him for Sandy are obviously better qualified to comment on this guy's prospects in the AFL (I live in Perth). He's got good size about him though.

    The future looks bright.

    Thanks DD

    Great to see some fresh faces running around

    Rivers - Ripped to the max

    The most exciting vision there for mine is Brock.

    A very steely look of determination & super pumped arms.

    Can't wait for 2008, lets just stay Spoon favourites right now & enjoy the ride going forward

    Merry X-Mas ;)

    He looks magnificent.

    They are all looking good and isnt it a delight to see Beamer running!!!!!!!!!!!!

    God, I cant wait till the first game. I am so pumped!

    I'm sorry but the fact that there is a photo of Moloney running means nothing. He has a groin related injury which means that he can most likely run in straight lines. If i see a video of him running side to side at 100% around cones..then im sold

    Everybody looks good and ready

    Every team says this during preseason. Fact is we have players aka Bartram still struggeling. Dont get too excited

    What have they been saying?

    I actually thought brock looked extremely toned, especially after seeing the next pic of green, Rivs does look a little bigger but not much.

    Agree with leucopogon, morton looks like he will fill out nicely.

    What have they been saying?

    That he has another injury concern, unrelated to his ankle. Nobody knows what exactly, or if they do, they are not willing to divulge.

    Neitz looks like he's slowly dropping weight this pre season.

    I wonder what plans DB has for him in 08 ?

    He came back from his ankle injury last year and then hurt his knee. I think you will find it is his knee that is the issue.

    need Beamer up and running all year.

    The more I think about it the more I see Beamer as a HUGE key to any success we have next year. When he's not hurt, he's more than just a gutsy inside midfielder. He's the guy that can really hurt oppositions. So many other players do their jobs but don't hurt on the scoreboard... Also, he's been a non-event for about 3 seasons now... No-one will see him coming...

    Its actually two and if he cant make headway this year his career is in doubt. He has been a long time out of the game.

    He had a very good first year with us but he needs to concentrate on his decision making and his defensive skills when he does not have the ball.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
