Moniz-Wakefield has joined the rehabbers as expected after doing all the warm ups with the main group. Doing short sharp sprints changing direction and moving laterally. Shouldn’t be too far away.

He is there. Missed him in number order as I haven’t been practicing my jumper number exercises.

McAdam jogging laps with Reece Conca.

Bowey has arrived on crutches and in a moon boot. 😳

Turner jogging laps.

The footys are finally out. Players start on the half back and kick to a player in the middle and original player runs past for the handball and kicks to a player on the half forward flank. Rinse, repeat.

Daniel Turner has come from the ground towards the trainers pointing to his hammy. Currently on his back getting his leg stretched.

Melksham jogging laps. McAdam & Matthews doing exercises with a trainer. Viney & Henderson on the bikes. Main group still doing warm up run throughs.

Rehab: Viney, Matthews, Melksham, McAdam & Henderson

Melksham also appears to be amongst the rehabbers as is Matthews.

McAdam started with the group doing warmups but has come to the shed to take off the boots and put the runners on.

Players going through various warm up exercises. Henderson and Viney handballing to each other. Viney not moving very well.

What's your Pass Mark for the Dees in 2026?

Whispering Jack and I will be heading down to Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you our observations of this mornings Preseason Training session. Let us know if there is any player in particular you want us to report our observations on. Often we tend to focus on the new guys and unintentionally forget some of the others. 📆 Friday, December 5 ⏰ 10am - 12pm 📍 Gosch's Paddock 🏃‍♂️ Session type: Pre-season training If anyone has any information on the dates and times of next week sessions it would be greatly appreciated.

Invisible Viney

Based on today’s updates to the site, the club can now delete players who’ve been traded out or delisted, and they’ve been able to add players traded in from other clubs’ lists (e.g. Steele, CJ, Heath and Mihocek). They were also able to add Oscar Berry, who wasn’t previously on any list. However, they still don’t appear to be able to add the new draftees, nor can they update or assign jumper numbers for any of the new players. I had a look through several other club websites, and many still display their 2025 lists and numbers. Collingwood still shows Mihocek, and CJ remains listed as a Hawk. Like us, St Kilda has the Champion Data notice and they’ve removed Steele and Heath and added their new high-profile recruits at the bottom of the list without numbers. Trac and JUH have also been added to the end of the Suns’ list, though they don’t display the Champion Data message. Clarry is not currently on the GWS list. Whether the responsibility sits with the clubs, the AFL, or Champion Data, it shouldn’t be a complicated fix. These updates should be accurate and timely, and for organisations worth millions, it really shouldn’t be difficult to implement.

📆 Friday, December 5 ⏰ 10am - 12pm 📍 Gosch's Paddock 🏃‍♂️ Session type: Pre-season training I don’t believe there will be snags on the menu at Fridays session. I believe snags will be on the menu at the following session which might not be a footy training session: 📆 Saturday, December 13 ⏰ 8.30am - 11am 📍 Gosch's Paddock 🏃‍♂️ Session type: Christmas meet and greet

Looks like he’s incognito mode with the hat on. Can see how this was missed by the trackwatchers as the assistants and support staff often blend in with all eyes on the players.
