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 ;)

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

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.

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

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.

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.

    TRAINING: Monday 17th February 2025

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 (

    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

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’

    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
