In the earlier games I saw of the Tigers, Grimes looked off.

Tholstrup was training with the MFC Casey team, after the MFC squad left the paddock.

Tholstrup is very professional at the training sessions. Reminds me of Viney, he has extreme drive and standards for himself. He will turn every stone to make sure he becomes a staple in the 22.

Looks like Woewodin will fill those big boots. He stayed with the backs, from the time he left AAMI, till the return. They have a great backline system and being new to the big men's club, he will need sometime to know the role. I think he will be the one most likely to play like Hibbo. He is bulking up well and developing a physical presence.

Additional: It looked like they were structuring for and executing fast ball movement through the corridors direcrly off half-back, and/or from lateral spread/switches. Moniz-Wakefield was at training but not participating, had a different coloured top on as compared to the rest of the MFC Casey players.

I am not as concerned about Billings as others. He is starting to get confidence in his body and needs that beautiful break out game to show what he can do. Hoping it is this week or the next, and he can put to bed that he is on the periphery for selection. His skills set, when 'on' is a needed factor in our system. I hope he still has plenty of improvement and building in his game, as he adjust to his new club.

Isn't that great, big load of stress of his shoulders. Congratulations to Ardu, Koz, and the family.

Bowey doing some high marking off the bag. Seems to be trusting his shoulders. He doesn't have any strapping on. Doing some tackling drills as well. Giving the shoulder a good test. Casey session just finished and they are off the paddock, except for Bowser, and Farris-White (who was marking the long high bal).

Yes

Looks like the mids for Laurie.

With Casey.

Clarry looks fine, going about it with plenty of concentration and professionalism. Some strapping, I didn't notice any hinderances.

Those playing with Casey are now on the Paddock, 16 of them. Bowey in the white cap. BBB is with them, so is McAdam, Fullarton and Tholstrup. BBB and McAdam of to the side doing their own kick to kick with a trainer.

I think Turner is forward. When the backline gathered he wasn't with them. Choco is putting plenty of time into him as he kicks for goal at the end of the session.

You are right.

You are right.

Sunny, though a touch windy, this morning, 23 of them no emergencies. Forwards out first. Petty, JVR, Billings, Chandler, Kossie, Fritsch, and coach Stafford. The backs join them, May, Lever, Woey, McVee, Howes, TMac, Rivers, Turner, and coach Chaplin. A trainer and Choco are on the fence talking. The mids are now making their way over. Oliver,Tracc, Laurie, Langdon, Sparrow, Max, Viney, ANB, Windsor. Choco talking to the crew after the first drill. "They were excellent because of the way we set it up". Kicks between the mannequins, then one over the mannequins. He also said to Wheelan, "Kossie has shown me at least 10 pics of it, he is so happy". Goody is standing in the centre, watching the goings on, as they drill. The noise volume is great. Chaplin has been taking most of the talking and directional instructing. Goody pulls them into a centre circle and chats away. Ends with one structured sim and a week to backline set up after a point. The call, OK Boys, then a whistle, and back to the sheds.

Makes shopping time consuming and confusing when they are so unclear. Sometimes attention is more important @daisycutter.

Open Training There may be a short opportunity for autographs and photographs at the end of each session. However, we ask that our fans respect the players' post-training schedule and recovery requirements.

I went to the site, and it says "out of stock", two lines down from availability.

Went to the site you pinned and it says sold out.

https://www.aflfootyshop.com.au/melbourne-demons-mini-garden-gnome?gad_source=4&gclid=Cj0KCQjw8pKxBhD_ARIsAPrG45loIC44NPd6Hz3zvH7Of5f-Or1qy_BQJKmB27O_NfmgZVItSMNdsBgaAkSmEALw_wcB They also offered a $10 discount, voucher came up as a pop up. $15 for next day delivery. Only 18 cm big. Saw they were sold out of the 30 cms ones. Get a garden gnome, and paint it up.

Additional: I cannot remember seeing Kossie at the training. I've been known for not observing some when they were out there. Did anyone see any club photo's or media look ins? If I am right, my guess would be some extended leave, possibly at home. (Nothing like some unsubstantiated rumours.)

Yes looking good, bonding well with the team. Showing some confidence and moving well. Turner had the bib on a few times during sims, and because it was 9 v 18 he was mainly chasing and having to play a defensive role, though more up the field around the wings, than deep in the backline. Had a feeling he is not the next for a call up. I think they are looking closely at Fullarton.

Saw the DeLorean beam in and out of Code footy on their Facebook post. @Demonland is entertaining himself again. Can we trust him to take it a week at a time @Whispering_Jack? I didn't even know I became the ride along, @Bitter but optimistic could be right.
