  1. I been watching Goody as a tracker for a while now. Early in the 2024 season he was much more aloof and was regularly and openly frustrated with the team. As I Ieft track watching in the middle of the year, so I cannot say how he was later on. The seasons before, he was very much in the positive feedback mode, with a softly softly approach to them. I believe he was altering his style so as to see if that would propel us to success. He was conscious of his style change. I hope the review has more to offer than Goody's style. Any Fred or Jane would have been able to see that Goody consciously changed his style. I expect he will change again, not because he has been instructed to do so, but because he will continue to find a way to get the best out of himself and the team. Smoke and mirrors!
  2. There was only me as a spectator at the Tuesday open training. I hope a few turn up to show support to the MFC AFLW, at their possible last run for the year. They deserve it. AFLW TRAINING Thursday, October 31 3:25pm - 4:45pm Gosch's Paddock
  3. Could be last time to see them on the track, this season (Though, hoping the Boos do us a favour, and we also get through the Woods)
  4. A lovely late morning run, they were very chirpy and enjoying session. Not training, but down at Gosch's was Goldrick and Colvin, Harris and Beasley also on the boundary or assisting. Hose was rehabbing, doing sharp, short, change of direction runs and some jogging under trainer's supervision. Light duties (all in runners) included, McNamara, Paxman, and possibly Rigoni (ran some drills but didn't participate in sims or structural drills). Hore did some running and short sprints. Joined the group for some structural sims, but didn't do the full sims. Looks like she will be right to go. Twenty-four players that are fit and in full training. The goal kicking practice started well, though deteriorated as they went. Skills were very good in the structural sims and the sims. They were working on the short passes in the forward area and creating overlap run through the corridors. Standouts Hanks, Heath, Zanker, Gillard. S.Taylor, and Gall.
  5. https://www.melbournefc.com.au/teams/training-times AFLW Gosch's Paddock Tuesday, October 29 10:55am - 12:25pm Gosch's Paddock Thursday, October 31 3:25pm - 4:45pm Gosch's Paddock
  6. Check the MFC website. https://www.melbournefc.com.au/teams/training-times Sometimes they post only the next sessions and sometimes will post a few weeks in a row. I find they get a routine going that you can predict where they will train. I know some track watchers will ring the club and ask them. They have family days with training and entertainment, usually during school holidays. These are best for engaging the youngsters. Last season they began post chrissy, Monday, January 15th and posted the times soon after. Gosch's Paddock 2024 Wednesday January 17 9:30am - 11:30am Wednesday January 24 9:30am - 11:30am Wednesday January 31 9:30am - 11:30am Casey Fields 2024 Friday January 19 9:30am - 11:30am Monday January 22 9:30am - 11:30am Friday January 26 9:30am - 11:30am Monday January 29 9:30am - 11:30am My guess is they will do Gosch's again on the Wednesday.
  7. Found a radio station 3wbc from the match centre.
  8. No free to air or free streaming. I cannot find a radio program, can anyone suggest a station that is broadcasting? I think the AFLW is dropping the ball for the Demons. Such an important game for us.
  9. AFLW Cairns Wednesday, Oct 23 3:30-4:30pm Cazalys Stadium, Cairns Entry via the Tills Street gate entrance (northern end of the ground) Are there any D/L's having a look. Is Colvin training? Is Hore training? Has Rigoni got a chance for selection?
  10. Gall gave Colvin a big hug when she came back to the shed.
  11. Colvin was lying on her back for a few minutes as the assistant assessed her. She stood up and rested on the fence, she was teary, the collision must have hurt. Had a slow walk around the boundary (the long way) as she chatted to the assistant. I'm sure they will asses further as she had some distress. Hoping that the shoulder involvement in the collision may have lessened the blow to the head. I didn't see her lose consciousness.
  12. I had a look at the AFLW team train on Gosch's. The temperature was increasing, and the wind a bit gusty. Pisano and Colvin both in full training mode. Paxman, was not running at all, though lingering around the area. My guess is that they will test her tomorrow. Beasley was hobbling around, Johnson rehabbing with short change of direction runs. Hore left training early, no obvious hindrances. At one stage, Colvin ran off the blind spot of Gall when the ball went over the back, head collision occurred. Colvin came off worse. I heard the assistant say she caught it on the shoulder and head. Both stopped training. I think they should be OK. Rigoni was training well. Ben Brown was working with the forwards, at the ball up situations and participating in the sims.. Goldy has only one speed at training as well. B.Mackin was getting to the majority of ground ball contests. Zanker's marking was sharp, with hard running to create links down the wing. Forwards running patterns caused space to open up. Plenty of focus, support, teamwork, and professionalism on display. Heath was doing some great outside running and connections. Pearce dominated the ruck and consistently tapping to the advantage of the mids. Some transition from the full back and defensive wing simulations were clean and fast. They were looking good.
  13. Much more of a power mover, low centre of gravity, with heavy hips and shoulders. Explosive speed is good, whereas sprinting is not Sestan's friend, yet.
  14. Oliver was half a step behind the trainer, some gasping for air, working hard. Appeared a touch underdone, like he hadn't had a run for awhile.
  15. Sestan with shirt off has that contoured muscle shape, working hard on endurance and speed.
