Disco is having a very rough run with injury as do a lot of young AFL players, don’t fret to much young man let the body heal and then come back fitter and stronger. I have a feeling that we may need you near the business end of the year.

Hi Deeby it’s funny but my daughter and I commented on how great the facilities are at Casey, with the main oval in such pristine condition toilet facilities acceptable, the sports fields surrounding the main ground, massive car parking. The only downer is lack of a grandstand or additional seating around the ground, although I noticed all the smart people bought their own seating. I will also add that the conditions today were exceptional warm overcast and only a slight breeze but all attendees seemed to be in good spirits apart from the poor lady sitting next to me who got hit in the head by the ball kicked by one of the Tiges goal kickers. !!

We stayed for the first 4 periods, I liked the look of young Brown, the Duke and Verrall but was surprised how slick the Tiges outplayed our backline and piled on quick goals, I was also surprised that they were able to move the ball from the backline to the forward line on a number of occasions without us touching the ball. Our kicking and marking needs to come up a notch.!!

Half way through the third and 44 points down at Geelong if you don’t mind and win it with the last mark and kick of the game. As Bobby would have said it was fair dinkum unbelievable, pure determination and guts.!!

Thanks WERRIDEE, Kev, NC, Jontee , Demonland and all posters. Agree with Damo great that our injury woes are on the improve also glad they didn’t overdo the training today as looking forward to seeing the boys in full match simulation tomorrow morning.😁😁🔥

I think that Tracc is the total professional he keeps working on himself to get that little bit extra out of himself and shares what he is doing with our high performance team. He is quite inspirational and I love that he has the confidence to discuss it so openly.!!

That is brilliant news for the MFC.!!

Thanks DZ we are still waiting on two packs, hopefully be here before our first home game.lol.!!

There is plenty on the site this morning.😁

That’s correct the AFL website is showing Melbourne at Seymour and surrounding’s Feb 12th & 13th. Maybe they are heading off after training.!! Thanks WCW I just saw your post something must have come up to make such a late change.😳

Thanks FF that was a nice surprise particularly in such hot and blustery conditions, great effort.

Aren’t they supposed to be in Seymour Community Camp?

From memory it was mentioned that Shane McAdam was on light duties walking the boundary line in the last training report.

I just watched the Dee v Swans game we were 17 down in the third when Fritta went off with a foot issue then Jake Melksham did his knee and hobbled off. No Petty no Melks, no TMac no BBB and JVR helping Max in the ruck. Fritta came back on and kicked three superb goals, we ground them down and kicked the last 5 goals of the game and run out 22 point winners. It wasn’t pretty but gutsy tough never give in footy, commentators were willing Swans to win and claim a home final in front of a packed home crowd. But we said NO.!!!

I can’t see anything on the MFC website regarding Seymour Community Camp, there’s nothing like revving up the local community or resident Dee supporters in anticipation of getting involved with the camp??

Yes I have noticed a lot of bickering has broken out on the site without Picket Fences entertaining training report, two weeks eh, Jeezuz.😪😢

Agree Mono anyone under 50 wouldn’t identify Windsor knot for a tie, hell half of them wouldn’t know how to knot a tie. Lol.!!

Nice to see that our wingers are ranked 4th (Hunter) and 8th (Langdon) and we have another three coming through in Woewodin, Howes and the Duke although not necessarily in the order.!!

Also good signs for Fullarton not hampered with his swings, etc, also good to see Jonesey, Rigoni and Nicholson in the Coterie group.😁

Hi Demonland do you have the training schedule for next week, did they train today?

Totally agree Mazer R that is laughable anything referred to as infrastructure particularly if Govt is involved doubles, quadruple’s over a five year period when inflation is running at 5%, the funds are being syphoned off somehow. Where is the Project management the audits the penalties Credibility.!!

I hope that you are right picket, it appears that we have picked up a couple of A graders in The Duke and The Kolt. Caleb has really stepped up big time and deserves an early call up. He really looks something special.

Thanks Demonland, Startibart, Georgeoto, Kev M, DeeZephyr, Jontee for the excellent reports and all posters another great reporting day down at Gosh,s. Greatly appreciated.!!

I’m bullish, statistically what are the chances of being struck down by injuries in 2019, 2022 & 2023 and again in 2024? We will need to be creative in the early rounds but after round zero we will have JVR, Fritta and The Koz plus ANB, Spargo, Chandler, Billing’s and maybe McAdam plus Tracc spending time forward and hopefully Schache playing fwd/ruck. Every club will have injuries but can they cover them?

Well said QD and John D. We are not going down in ‘24.
