Demonland

They re-introduced this idea last year. I believe our ressies played the Bulldogs before our clash with them at Marvel.

Last year training resumed on Saturday 12th of January 2019 after the 2018 Christmas break. @Satyriconhome might have a 2020 return date.

Unless he's undergone a radical procedure then no.

automatically grade behind-play hits one level higher in 2020 abolished its golden point in finals (Under previous rules for tied finals introduced in 2016, teams would have played two five-minute halves of extra-time, and, if the scores were still tied, the team that scored first (golden point) in the next period of play would be deemed the winner teams will now play two three-minute halves of extra-time if the score is tied at the end of normal time. If scores are still deadlocked at the end of the extra-time, they will play two more three-minute halves. That way, both teams have the chance to kick with the wind or benefit from any other favourable conditions crackdown on players who enter a melee (the third player into a melee, particularly during the quarter-time breaks, will be hit with a tougher punishment) The league will also review all matches within 24 hours, ensuring quick-decision-making across the round.

Here is an article from 2017 which welcomes a crop of Next Generation Academy players. Two Deakins (Deakyn) are listed. Kobi George (VIC) Cody Egan (VIC) Deakin Pereira (VIC) Ryan Koo Kwet Kim (VIC) Deakyn Smith (VIC) Declan Gould (VIC) - Pending Andrew Moniz-Wakefield (NT) Reggie Gallagher (NT) I'm pretty sure the kid on the left is the unnamed tackler that I observed today. I'm pretty sure that the tall kid on the left of these two photos is the other Deakin (Pereira). These photos are over two years old now and he has certainly filled out. A big unit.

This is Deakyn Smith He was at training but was not the tall academy player George was referring to nor was he the Academy player that I made reference to that laid the nice tackles.

@dazzledavey36 there was an academy kid who was quite tall and built like and had the same gait as Charlie Curnow (similar hair style too). I don't know if he can play footy but if he can look out. If Deakyn Smith is only 179cm this guy isn't Deakyn Smith.

According to Max these are Melbourne Academy players from the Casey area. I asked if the Dees had first dibs and he said yes. One of the smaller academy laid nice tackles on Jordon and Langdon. Got a few pats on the back for those.

According to the Training Times page on the Official Site it states "Please note the session on Thursday, 19 December has been relocated and will now be a closed session."

Spoke to Max after training and he said today was an easier session and they’re likely to get smashed at the closed session tomorrow.

Nice to meet @dworship today too.

Leaving the actual reporting of Training to the professional trackwatchers.

Max & Bradtke doing ruck work on the side whilst the rest of the group do match sim. Jackson playing as a leading forward.

I don’t believe Preuss or Petty are out there either.

Mitch Brown not out there either. I think someone reported that he copped a knock on Monday.

Viney also wasn’t out there. He’s just arrived with TMac. TMac in boots, Viney in runners. Doing kick to kick on the sides.

@Baghdad Bob, @george_on_the_outer & @Whispering_Jack are here too so expect in-depth reporting later.

Obviously no Baker, Hannan, Spargo, Nietschke or Bennell either.

Doesn’t look like Vanders is out there either.

TMac not training.

Rehab Group: Only Tomlinson looks like the regular rehabbers are elsewhere today.
