Farewell Clayton Oliver
I think the club made the right decision and I wish him all the best. Perhaps his greatest supporter was Goody and with him going the writing was on the wall. Clarrie still has lots of mates amongst the players but the playing group is happy he has gone to another club.

AFL v English soccer pre season
I though a Burgess type person said AFL was much fitter and soccer was much more skillful.

Training Ground?
One thing I can tell you, if Caulfield goes ahead track watchers will need industrial strength fly repellent. Not helped by the heaps of grass cuttings and fresh compost on the track.

Aidan Johnson
Sure didnt. It came from the playing group.

Training Ground?
MRC dont own the land. It is Crown land. And use of the ovals will not be rent free.

Training Ground?
The CRCT will not be donating anything to anybody. The Trust will lease some disused land (currently the SE corner) to the MFC for our Admin and indoor facilities. This should provide the Trust an annual income of $250,000 (guesstimate) which I think the State Govt would consider a good thing. The Trust will also redevelop the inside of the race course for sports ovals/squares etc for community use with the MFC having right of use for a set number of hours a week.

Andy Moniz-Wakefield
AMW is still running with non contact group but is looking really good. No obvious sign that his injury is a hinderance.

PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 17th December 2025
In a sense yeah, dancing with your daughter, but some of the tackles I have seen have been bone crunching. With some big heads leaving there are more spots up for grabs so why not take out a competitor for your spot.

PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 17th December 2025
Another glorious day at Goschs. Is TMc ever late for anthing. Guerra and Richo watching on. Guerra always looks like he is enjoying his job. Tom matthews had a bandage on his leg last friday but it hasnt been seen since. Always under the eye of a trainer and spends much time jogging, not sprinting, the line. The rehabbers, Langford, langdon, gawn, melksham, disco look ready to go. Langford had the 'paint' across the bridge of the nose, a la Adam Ant. The non runners were Viney, Miohcek, henderson and Lindsay. Brodie suffering from that military complaint of General Soreness. Would you believe that Viney and Lindsay carried over a 'ski' machine from AAMI. Unbelievable. Windsor is an absolutely standout. XT has some really smarts and reads the ball well. At times though he reminds me of the kid down the back of the class who couldnt sit still. Had 2 senior umps for the match sim. Onley is nearly as big as Jamar. It doesnt help when players are in the wrong jumpers. Campbell beating Heath in the grappling contestants. Lever and Salem are masters of holding their oppoent in the tackle a second or 2 longer. Maysie looked uncomfortable, some part of his body aint right. (like duh). Jogging, running the line. I assume the players loaded up with the fluids as there was much 'watering of the eucalypt trees'. CJ, can i say poetry in motion, beautiful running.
